Editor’s Guide: How to Wear The Attico
The magic of The Attico lies in the “Clash.” Gilda and Giorgia built the brand on the contrast between their two styles: Gilda’s bold eclecticism and Giorgia’s refined minimalism.
1. The “Uptown/Downtown” Mix
The signature Attico look involves pairing their oversized, multi-pocket Cargo Pants with a hyper-feminine, sequined top or corset. It’s about grounding the glamour with grit.
2. The Statement Shoe
If you buy one thing, make it the shoes. The Devon Mule (with its pyramidal block heel) instantly updates simple denim. Let the shoe be the protagonist of your outfit.
3. Feathers & Sequins
Don’t save The Attico dresses for New Year’s Eve. Style a feathered mini dress with an oversized blazer and boots for a “cool girl” dinner look that feels effortless, not costumey.
Sizing Guide: The Attico
The Attico uses Italian Sizing (IT).
- Shoes: The Attico heels (especially the mules) run true to size, but if you have a wider foot, we recommend sizing up half a size due to the structured toe boxes.
- Cargo Pants: These are designed to sit low on the hips and run long (for that slouchy effect). Take your normal size for the intended fit, or size down if you prefer a high-waist look.
- Dresses: Mini dresses are often fitted and short. If you are tall (over 5’9″), verify the length or consider sizing up for comfort.
Frequently Asked Questions

The Attico was founded in 2016 by Italian street-style stars Gilda Ambrosio and Giorgia Tordini. Based in Milan, they combined their distinct aesthetics to create a brand focused on hedonism and sparkle.
Are The Attico shoes comfortable?
Despite their sculptural shapes, The Attico shoes are crafted in Italy with stability in mind. The signature Devon mule features a wide, pyramidal base that offers significantly more support than a traditional stiletto.
