The Company

Based in Martina Franca, Apulia, the company has been part of the high-end fashion industry for over 50 years, specialising in men's and women's outerwear made from premium Italian fabrics.

Founded in 2010 by Mauro Gianfrate, the hevò brand has evolved steadily, enhancing not only the value of its products but also its creative vision.

With an entirely in-house production process, the company safeguards the values of craftsmanship and Made in Italy quality, overseeing every stage, from planning and design to the finished garment.

Our Mission

To create garments that embody timeless mezzo craftsmanship, innovation and a deep connection to the local heritage, offering a cultured, sustainable alternative to seasonal fashion.

Hevò does not follow trends: each piece is conceived and made to last, carrying culture in its fabric and honouring a local supply chain of excellence.

Our Values

Roots A strong bond with the Valle d'Itria and its cultural and natural environment.

Endurance Garments designed and built to outlast trends.

Sustainability Short supply chain, natural materials, local production, exceptional suppliers.

Care Attention to detail that is tactile before visual, felt by the hand as much as seen by the eye.

Our Identity

hevò's identity is rooted in four key concepts, embedded in its name

he-ra as time, slowness and resilience

he-volution as organic, sustainable evolution

he-vocation as aesthetic and sensory evocation

he-cosystem as a human, cultural and environmental ecosystem

Made in Apulia

All hevò collections are designed and produced in Martina Franca, in the heart of the Itria Valley. Most of our production partners are local, reducing CO₂ emissions and preserving a close, collaborative supply chain.

Every stage of production is managed in-house and reflects the distinctive hevò style: from concept and design to the finished garment.

Materials, details

We source only the highest-quality yarns from long-standing partners such as Loro Piana, Lanificio Ricceri and Lanificio Supermoda. Since the very beginning, these collaborations have embraced experimentation and research.

We also re-examine existing fabrics, including remnants from previous productions, as part of our commitment to quality and responsibility.

Every hevò garment is finished with carefully chosen details, such as the iconic four-hole button designed exclusively for us and crafted by Bottonificio Lenzi 1955, a historic Italian manufacturer.
