Welcome to Tianello’s first behind the scenes look!

We’re starting at the top,  with founder and CEO, Steve Barraza.  He gave us some  insights into what makes Tianello unique,  and we’re sharing that information with you.

When asked,  Steve will tell you that one of the things that makes Tianello unique is that they are what he calls ‘Garment dyers’.  This means that the rich colors you find in your Tianello garment are created after the garment has been completely assembled.  Conversely, many large clothing manufacturers dye their  fabric in large batches before assembly. 

  Tianello’s practice of garment dyeing ensures that when you receive your item,  it is 100%  pre-shrunk and has a lovely, soft feel that you are unlikely to find off the rack from fabric first dyed apparel.

  Garment dyeing also facilitates another of Tianello’s practices–on demand production.  Your garment is made ready when you order it, to the color, style and body specification you select. You never wind up with a blouse that has been hanging on the rack for weeks or even months.

  These practices makes for a healthy balance of quality and efficiency.  This is in line with Tianello standards, which Steve calls a product based company, saying “if you have no product, all you have is price.”  The goal is to create and maintain stellar products for the Tianello line.  The company prides itself on the quality and comfort of it’s garments.

   That pride in workmanship seems to be paying off.  When your employees choose to wear Tianello garments, even on their off-time, you know you’re on the right track.  The tenets of comfort and style are reflected throughout the company. They’ve chosen to stick to these ideals, rather than fancy marketing or latching on to the latest trends.

  All of Tianello’s designs offer classic, flattering drapes and cuts that can be easily incorporated into any wardrobe.  Steve realizes this is one of the keys to Tianello’s success: “When a woman looks good, and feels good, she’ll come back for more.”  It’s one of the reasons, according to Steve, you’ll find that a woman who wears Tianello, wears mostly Tianello. By sticking with clean lines and foregoing unnecessary frills,  each Tianello piece has staying power that a trendy item just doesn’t have.  The cut of a Tianello blouse– for example– is unlikely to ‘go out of style’ in favor of something new.

  Tianello also enforces a rigorous quality control.  Garments are carefully checked during various stages of production for any imperfections.  Even loose strings are dealt with.  The quality of a Tianello garment is similar to that of a designer’s sample—a piece that is of top quality and free of all possible imperfections—nearly flawless.

  Steve and the hardworking staff at Tianello  have a definite goal in mind for the client with all of this attention to detail:

   “When it becomes their [the client’s] look– It’s what we want,” says Steve.  

   Stay tuned for future installments of “Behind the Scenes:”  as we follow the garment creation process from start to finish.  Look forward to it!
