Bigi Bigi ties originated in Viale Gian Galeazzo in Milan, in a small workshop, the heart of a classical period building, which reflects the elegance and sophistication of the products created by the company. A landmark building located along a perimeter that links all the old city gates and one that is typical of the Milan that is so loved by the Milanese and by those foreigners who are sensitive to hidden architectural treasures. That Milan that, today, is currently known as a fashion capital, that dictates style, and guards the secret of good taste.
