I was born in Puglia in 1975, in Margherita di Savoia, between the blue waters of the sea and the pink waters of the largest salt flats in Europe.
In 2001, I graduated in Law from the University of Siena, and shortly after, I moved to Rome, where I began working at the Chamber of Deputies.
At the same time, I graduated from the Higher School of Legislative Studies. In 2008, I decided to completely change my life, leaving my job and planning a small, all-Italian fashion business.
I moved to Maremma, drawn by the beauty of a magical and overwhelming land, and here I dedicated myself heart and soul to my project, launching the SINAPSI’ line of luxurious, elegant, and hand-embroidered swimwear in 2011.
In 2014, I chose a new reality: the beautiful and sophisticated city of Bergamo, where I had the opportunity to experience the excellence of local craftsmanship.
Through a professional partnership with other businesses in the region, I gave further impetus and international exposure to my entrepreneurial and design activity, enthusiastically and passionately conducting research around the world, driven by an innate desire to find harmony between who we are and what we desire.
In 2016, I launched the new brand VALERIA DAMATO, aimed at travelers, businesswomen, and socialites, offering them comfortable, versatile, and always chic clothing.
Today, I live in Milan, where I have opened my small atelier, a secret address in the heart of the city, accessible by appointment through word of mouth.
