Rapsodia's Acquisition of Baby Cottons

Rapsodia was founded in 1999, in Buenos Aires, by Josefina Helguera, Sol Acuña and Francisco de Narváez.

The first store outside Buenos Aires was opened in 2005, while 2006 marked the beginning of the brand’s expansion in the region with stores in Chile and Mexico. Rapsodia currently operates in six Latin American countries – Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, Paraguay, Colombia, and Mexico – through 90 points of sale and four product lines: Women, Intimates, Girls, and Home. The brand is characterized by a boho-chic, romantic style. It offers an eclectic product portfolio that amalgamates innumerable patterns and a varied range of colors and textures. Each collection is inspired in differ rent cultures and decades, art, music, and world travel, all of which have undoubtedly forged its super feminine, adventurous and free identity.

The company is owned by Francisco De Narváez and the private equity fund L Catterton.

Babycottons was born in 1999, when Maria Paz de la Piedra developed the concept of ‘dressing babies as babies’ in a successful venture. The quality of the proposal coupled with classic designs and soft pima cotton, make babycottons a globally recognized brand.
