We had the good fortune of connecting with Camila Ladicani and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Camila, is there a quote or affirmation that’s meaningful to you?
I believe that the objects we carry with us are more than just accessories, they are full of stories and emotions. They take our personality and vibes. As one of my clients once told me: “Every fold has a memory behind”

Please tell us more about your work. We’d love to hear what sets you apart from others, what you are most proud of or excited about. How did you get to where you are today professionally. Was it easy? If not, how did you overcome the challenges? What are the lessons you’ve learned along the way. What do you want the world to know about you or your brand and story?
Ladicani Design is a unique brand with a defined mission- making simple, functional, and handcrafted stylish goods that are essential to our everyday life. Our purpose is to make each product as useful as they are beautiful. Minimalist, stylish, and functional will always be our motto.

Starting Ladicani Design is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made in my life, even though it all happened right as the pandemic hit us in 2020; so that, all the skills and knowledge I know l learned by myself by watching videos, asking people with years of experience in the leather world, but also trial and error. It was not easy, but when you have passion and the desire to succeed nothing is difficult.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Behind every single business, there are always many people to thank. In my case, I have two special persons in my life to thank. One is my mom who has worked with me side by side, giving me the strength to undertake this new long path of having my own business. The other person is my partner in life, who has supported and taught me a lot about how to grow and lead a small business since day one. Besides them, a big thank you to all my friends, family, and customers. Having a small business can be tough, but having them all in my life makes everything so much easier.
