Their shared passion for creativity led them to work in the theatre, Alessandra as an actress, Guendalina as a set designer, videomaker, and DJ a background that continues to inspire every piece they create.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">What could be more theatrical than a hat? For Alessandra India, each hat is like an actor\u2019s costume: a vessel that invites you to step into a new character, a new story, every time you wear it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">For Guendalina, the rhythms, melodies, and harmonies of the DJ booth subtly influence the shapes, textures, and moods of each hat, infusing EQUIPO creations with a unique sense of rhythm and poetic movement.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Together, they founded EQUIPO by LGF, a name that means \u201cteam\u201d in Spanish, reflecting the spirit of collaboration, creativity, and shared vision behind every creation. With EQUIPO, they set out to revive the timeless tradition of hat-wearing, a heritage that has always been part of fashion history, when hats once dictated style and social context, with different designs for every occasion. Their creations celebrate Made in Italy craftsmanship, the singularity of colours, and a delicate na\u00eff touch, blending artistry with elegance, history with contemporary expression, and always a sense of timeless elegance.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;RGBA(255,255,255,0)&#8221; background_enable_image=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/equipolgf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Schermata-2024-10-02-alle-15.34.57.png&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Schermata 2024-10-02 alle 15.34.57&#8243; align=&#8221;right&#8221; align_tablet=&#8221;right&#8221; align_phone=&#8221;center&#8221; align_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; max_width=&#8221;90%&#8221; max_width_tablet=&#8221;90%&#8221; max_width_phone=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_width_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;5%||5%||true|false&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;5%||5%||true|false&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;0%||0%||true|false&#8221; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Brand Born from the creative vision of sisters Alessandra India and Guendalina, EQUIPO by LGF is the natural evolution of La Guenda\u2019s Factory \u2014 an atelier of ideas and visual arts.Rooted in their shared passion for theatre, design, and craftsmanship, the sisters created a space where imagination takes shape through tangible, timeless creations. \u2e3b [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"<!-- wp:divi\/placeholder \/-->","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-18588","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.5 -
