YALI Tribe

Yali is a dreamy lifestyle brand founded by Pia Zanardi, drawing inspirations from nostalgic eras and new worlds. With color-forward collections of ethereal ready-to-wear and accessories, Yali combines heritage craft and modern techniques in timeless designs. ABOUT YALI’S FOUNDER PIA ZANARDI Born in Parma, Italy, Pia Zanardi grew up traveling to the countryside near the Po River. Surrounded by creative influences, whether ‘90s punk graphics (she worked at Brooklyn-based skate shop KCDC as a formative teen), working with legendary art gallerist and dealer Sandra Gering, or going with her nonna to the opera in couture, Zanardi has a strong sense of aesthetic exploration that forms the core of Yali. Based between New York City and Milan, Zanardi’s passion for the art of living is further reflected by her time spent across cultures in Beijing, New Zealand and London. Her inspirations range from Giotto to Federico Fellini, Wong Kar-wai and Tom Ford.
