If you are looking for fashion with a difference in Venice, then check out Giudecca Prison. A popular fashion factory has been established in this unlikely location at the women’s prison on Giudecca Island, just south of the main island of Venice. The convicts have proven themselves to be rather capable designers.he tailors working in the workshop are renowned for good quality faithful reproductions of famous Palazzo Mocenigo’s 18th century costumes, and making other fashionable products including bags encrusted with sequins, jewellery, brocades, T-shirts and other interesting, original items featuring imaginative designs.
The shop you shouldn’t miss is Banco Lotto n. 10, where you’ll find that the products on offer are hardly any different from those of famous designer brands, such as Prada, Hugo Boss and others.
