You will find some beautiful items in this shop, but beware of the labels. Several items I looked…read moreat had the labels removed. One poncho was labeled 'handmade' but I could see where the tag had been unstitched from the material. Also, a few items were labeled wool and they were definitely blends, not pure. I found the small label hidden in the inside seam of one "wool" coat and it said 'acrylic.' There are authentic vintage items in this shop and many others that are passed off as vintage, but aren't, or are labeled as having higher quality fabric. The prices are high and I don't trust the labels, but there are some beautiful pieces.

Short Review: Cute chain boutique right near the Piazza…read moreMaggiore. Very helpful and friendly staff. Always a good selection of clothes, and this store has two floors to shop! Long Review: I've been a Desigual fan for many years. They always have cute clothes even for girls and women a little on the XL side. I've been to the store in Lima, in Barcelona, in Madrid, and now Bologna. This particular location is a little smaller than the others, but has two floors of clothing and accessories. The staff is very friendly and really cool - meaning they WILL tell you when something either looks really good, or whether you should take it off! LOL. I ended up getting a cute little summer dress and cute heels to match. The 2nd dress was a "no no" and the woman helping me said so. LOL. I was appreciative! Trust me. The selection was a little limited compared to the other three stores I've been to, but I've always been able to find something at Desigual. I just love this store! Not too expensive for the quality you get. Stop into this location if you're in the area.
