Introducing: the Medea Sisters

For Giulia and Camilla, music serves as the soundtrack to fashion, accompanying them getting ready, travelling on the go or working in their studio.

Twins Giulia and Camilla Venturini are the Founders and Creative Directors of the “it” brand Medea, best known for their cult classic leather handbags and playful accessories. Wearing Bang & Olufsen’s latest Beoplay H100 headphones, they take us through their day in music.

At Home

The twin sisters each have a unique personality and style but share certain similarities which can be seen in their homes and fashion, often sharing clothes from each other’s closets.

“I spent many years in New York,” says Camilla, “the cultures I encountered in the city have influenced my personal style”. Similarly, Giulia’s style reflects her time spent across different European countries. “Now that we have both returned to Milan, we are inevitably influenced to some extent by the surroundings of the city, but we still strive to preserve our unique experiences and influences.”

Music as inspiration

While at the studio, Giulia and Camilla take turns choosing what music to play. “Our music choice evolves throughout the day. Music not only helps us get into the workflow, but also sets the mood for the day ahead,” they state. The music the sisters play at the studio usually fluctuates between classic albums from the 1960s or 70s, rap music, and playlists from the Medea Music Series.

At Work

“Our creative process consists of brainstorming together in a dynamic conversation where we make a conscious effort to embrace our differences beyond our similar tastes. We enjoy bringing diverse opinions and references into our creative conversations.”

“We love colour, and we surround ourselves with strong colours. We believe in its effect on people's daily lives.”

Music and Community

Their curated playlist series solidifies the intersection between music and community, two forces Giulia and Camilla consider fundamental both in their creative process as well as in their daily lives. “We find inspiration within our community by engaging in dialogue with musicians and artists, visiting them in the studio while they record music or make art”, the sisters say. Moreover, their creations are often influenced by the personal style of musicians.

“The Medea Music Series is a curated playlist series we initiated in 2020 during the pandemic. Music came as a natural means to connect with our community during a time when we were all confined.”

Quality over quantity

In a world dictated by fast-moving trends, Giulia and Camilla still believe in quality over quantity. We try to create accessories that are not bound by seasonal trends, particularly when it comes to leather bags”, they explain. “For us, Bang & Olufsen represents very iconic, timeless objects with high-quality craftsmanship and sound, and their choice of materials, such as the soft leather in the Beoplay H100 headphones, reflects the values we share,” they state.
