Eco Capri in Piazzetta Cerio recalls the splendor and creativity of the 50s Capri through the works of Letizia Cerio Eco Capri is fashion, it is style, it is good taste.

But above all else Eco Capri is the essence of a family that has contributed to a fare of Capri, the island known in the world. Eco Capri is located in the square dedicated to the Cerio family. It shows its visitors how Letizia Cerio’s works come to life in objects that tell the Capri style, the love for beauty Anna Letizia Fiammetta Elena Cerio Born in Buenos Aires on 29 February 1908, Letizia Cerio is the daughter of the photographer and concert pianist Elena Hosmann and the naval engineer and mayor of Capri Edwin Cerio. Elena had returned with Edwin to Argentina to have a child. At the age of a few hours Letizia was wrapped in a blanket and placed outside under a small palm tree in a wicker basket. It was for Edwin to meet her for the first time, as if she was handed over and left just for him to discover. Letizia grows up in the Cerio di Capri family surrounded by artists, writers, politicians and creative energies. Letizia Cerio studies drawing and painting with Baccio Maria Bacci and painting with Elfriede Pegagos. The free time was spent with his aunt, Mabel Norman Cerio, between Capri and Newport. It is from Aunt Mabel that Letizia learns about life. To develop the patience to search for the details that in his drawings and paintings become the hallmark in all his works. Eco Capri and the works of Letizia Cerio Today, thanks to Federico Alvarez Da Toledo, nephew of Letizia Cerio, the works and drawings of Letizia in life in the creations and collections made by Eco Capri. Eco Capri collaborates with Italian artists and artisans to shape the aunt’s drawings. This is how the design of the Piazzetta Azzurra in Capri is transformed into a splendid piece of furniture made of Murano glass by the artist Angela Poletti.

But it also happens that the fable of the Blue Lizard of Capri written by Edwin Cerio comes to life, transforming itself into unique items of clothing, rigorously made in Italy, for both men and women.

Eco Capri goes beyond the style shop, Eco Capri, becomes an echo of the beautiful Capri, the Capri of artists, inventors, dreamers.
