About Cotton Club...

Welcome back to the enchanting world of the Roaring Twenties, once again! It's an unforgettable era of transformation, rebellion, and cultural brilliance. Conceria Montebello is becoming the time machine that will transport you back to relive the vibrant and luxurious atmosphere of the famous Cotton Club, an icon of that historic period. We are eagerly anticipating the launch of our upcoming collection inspired by this legendary time, driven by a passion for high-quality craftsmanship and a commitment to sustainability. Our tannery is dedicated to offering luxury products that reflect the timeless charm of those unforgettable years.

The Allure of the Roaring Twenties

The Roaring Twenties, also known as the "Jazz Age" or the "Roaring '20s," was a period of extraordinary cultural, social, and economic dynamism that followed World War I. During this revolutionary decade, America and much of the Western world were swept up in a whirlwind of change and rebellion. The young generation rejected the constraints of tradition and embraced a lifestyle centered around entertainment, fashion, wild jazz, and frenetic dancing.

The Cotton Club: The Epicenter of Entertainment and Elegance

At the heart of this cultural and luxury whirlwind, the Cotton Club shone like a star. Located in Harlem, New York, the club was founded in 1920 by Jack Johnson, a renowned boxer, and later managed by Owney Madden. From the outset, the Cotton Club became famous for its infectious jazz and exceptional talents. Jazz legends such as Duke Ellington, Cab Calloway, and Louis Armstrong regularly graced its stage, captivating New York's elite with their unmatched artistry.

A Stage of Contradictions despite its reputation as a cultural and musical landmark, the Cotton Club was shrouded in contradictions. It admits African American artists solely to entertain the white clientele. This discriminatory aspect of the club reflected the injustice and racial tensions of the time. Nevertheless, the Cotton Club continued to be a source of inspiration and challenge for African American artists striving to make their voices and talents heard in a segregated world.

From this embryonic shadow, the Cotton Club soon changed its connotation, becoming a welcoming home for people of all backgrounds. Americans, Europeans, African Americans, and others found in the Cotton Club their global hub, a place of great inspiration, cross-pollination, and mutual exchange.

A New Golden Era The Cotton Club-inspired collection: A Tribute to Timeless Elegance

With our new collection inspired by the Cotton Club, we intend to pay homage to the essence of that unforgettable era and convey its magic through our luxury products. Each item has been meticulously designed and crafted with attention to detail, reflecting the sophisticated and glamorous atmosphere of the club and the Roaring Twenties. Clean lines, refined details, and premium materials turn leather into an elegant work of art. Indeed, the '20s are placed on the timeline, marking a new way of interpreting fashion.

Luxury and glamour, elegance and refinement, clean and neutral colors—everyone can be whoever they want, embodying their identity with feathers and sequins, elegant hats, leather, and details that still make us dream with our eyes wide open. Flowing skirts, unique details, men and women who definitively define the meaning of elegance - all of this is reflected in the new Montebello collection.
