Antonia Sautter Creations & Events

Antonia Sautter, in whose veins runs Austro-Hungarian blood from her father's side and Venetian blood from her mother's, was born in Venice and is both a noblewoman and merchant like her forefathers. She has been an artistic creator and prominent entrepreneur in her home city for over twenty years.

Antonia's career in the world of fashion started when she was young. At just 23 years old she was appointed sole director of the Italian office of "Venezia Mode" one of the leading companies in the worldwide distribution of "Made in Italy" fashion. Antonia Sautter spent long periods working in the United States - where "Venezia Mode" has its head office - before she finally returned to Italy and opened her Atelier and the fashions line "Venetia" in Venice. Her living and breathing Venice makes each and every one of her creations abound with in-depth knowledge of the creative arts, the history of costumes and fabrics, and the ancient methods of art and crafts.

In the new atelier - Maison Sautter - you can find precious hand-painted and hand-printed fabrics, furnishing accessories and the fashion line designed by Antonia Sautter and you can admire, as if you were in a costume museum, the extraordinary and spectacular period costumes that have made Antonia a famous costume designer.

A creative and charming woman, Antonia Sautter has devoted herself successfully and with dedication to the creation, planning and organization of events. Through her studies of the dream, the arts and the splendour of Venice, Antonia Sautter created, 18 years ago, Il Ballo del Doge, the international Carnival Gala described as the "most sumptuous, exclusive, famous and sought-after event in the world".
