Barbara Bertoldi was born and raised in Northern Italy.

With a degree in Fashion Design and a qualification in pattern cutting and tailoring she gained experience working within the bridal industry as well as collaborating with one of Northern Italy top cashmere producing labels.

Barbara decided to take a break from the frenetic fashion industry and moved to Bristol to study and improve her English.

Whilst living in Bristol she discovered the artistic and eclectic scene of the city and became to love and appreciate all different aspects of fashion.

In 2007 Barbara opened her very own shop/studio, Bertoldi and with that, she introduced a complete new concept of tailoring and an innovative service to the public.

Bertoldi is a warm family run business where most of sewing requests are welcome.

It’s a friendly environment where people can get the best advice on tailoring requirements and an honest guidance.

No job is too small no challenge is too big, we’re always happy to discuss possibilities.

Bertoldi is a place where your clothes are very well looked after, repaired, restored or simply adjusted to fit.
