Lucia was born first generation American to a hardworking Italian family in
New Jersey. She spent most of her adolescence in New Jersey, and the summers in Italy. Her fluency in Italian allowed her to successfully attend one year of university in Perugia (Italy), but NYC beckoned and Lucia enrolled in the world renowned New York University, where she earned her degree in Political Science. Her plan was to continue on to law school, but plans were put on hold when she caught the attention of one of the most famous modeling agencies in NYC, Wilhelmina Model Management, always very interested in classy and talented models. Lucia embarked on a successful career working also overseas and for famous designers such as Ralph Lauren and Tommy Hilfiger. You may have also seen her in ads and commercials for: Conair, Corona, Ferrari, Matrix, Mercedes Benz, Perry Ellis and Sky Vodka, to name a few. She was the recipient of the Modella Award in 1999, when a billboard representing her was dominating Times Square in NYC. Today, Lucia is represented by the oldest, most famous and respected agencies in the world, FORD MODELS. She continues to work on several national and international TV
s, billboard ad campaigns, advertisements and covers for international fashion magazines. She was named by America's number one Italian American magazine, PRIMO, "...the Italian siren with a mind to drive you wild!"
The entrepreneurial spirit runs in the Corvelli family and finally took hold. Lucia's love of fashion and knowledge in front of the camera of what feels good and looks exquisite prompted her to start her own business. Combining both her Italian passion with her American city practicality, she started her own company geared toward the real woman with affordability and quality in mind and the necessities of both the consumer and the retailer. And, of course, all made in Italy!
Although very focused in her business, she never wanted to leave her interest in the law behind, as she has always thought that a legal background would be useful. She has a law degree from the University of London and plans on pursuing a Masters in Law in NYC, her home. She has already practiced as a trainee in two very well respected law firms, both in New York City and overseas. Who knows... perhaps one day soon she will have to deal with hundreds of subsidiaries and thousands of employees! In a nutshell, beauty, brains and ambition. However, there is much more to
