Compelled by a profound ardour for the fashion of the nineteenth and nascent twentieth centuries the esteemed Luca graces each day attired in resplendent bespoke garments, most exquisitely accentuated by harmonious accessories. Ever the consummate showman, Luca disseminates his enchanting persona with every sojourn he embarks upon. Not solely an accomplished thespian and musician, he dedicates numerous days of the week to the curation and sale of superlative antiques within Amsterdam’s most illustrious antiquarian establishment.


It was amidst the conviviality of the Tweed Ride, a most delightful cycling event in Rotterdam, where participants don their finest vintage tweeds, that Nikki and Melchior first encountered the distinguished Luca. United by their shared adoration for the enduring elegance of fashion, they swiftly forged a friendship, entailing regular gatherings with kindred spirits. With Luca’s illustrious background as a performer and his captivating presence, Nikki and Melchior were assured that he was the quintessential individual to preside over their ceremonial proceedings.
