In 2005 Caroline Saccone set off on an adventure that would forever change her life.  After graduating from school, she moved from Boston to Tennessee, and started working as head designer for Marsha De Arriaga LLC making custom apparel. Through the exposure, Caroline became aware of the differences in fabric, style, and cut.

Caroline began to develop working relationships with her clients.  From purely word-of-mouth sales tactic, Caroline began to sell her designs to friends and acquaintances with no advertising.
While sporting her own designs, woman would frequently approach her, seeking where to buy her designs. The demand became so great that a business was born. 
Caroline took the next step and started her own company Catalina (her name in Italian) and a
fashion line called Forbidden (Vietato). In 2006 the line launched.
