Ludovica

Her studio occupies the top floor of an old building on Via Monte Napoleone. She trained in pattern cutting in Florence and worked as a buyer in Paris. Her long dark-brown hair is pinned in a low bun, she has brown eyes, wears thin-framed cat-eye glasses, has red lips, and a figure with pronounced curves; a tape measure hangs around her neck at all times.

Personality. Sharp-tongued, quick, and with a merciless eye: within three seconds she can tell what is wrong with a person and says so without the slightest courtesy. She has zero tolerance for sloppiness, yet she quietly spends extra time on anyone who is trying hard. She loves the moment when someone sees a new version of themselves in the mirror. She speaks fast, often ending sentences with “Got it?”, and she only slows down when she is very close to someone.
