dellepoca

Dellepoca is a term encountered in Italian-language contexts as a stylized or alternate rendering of the phrase dell'epoca, meaning “of the era” or “of the period.” In standard Italian, the common forms are dell'epoca or d'epoca; dellepoca without spacing and punctuation is not part of formal grammar and is typically found only in branding, titles, or informal usage where a compact form is desired.

In usage, adjectives or nouns described as dellepoca are used to denote period-appropriate aesthetics or artifacts, such as fashion, design, film, or furniture that imitate or belong to a specific historical era. The term is often applied in fashion journalism, museum labeling, and retro-style critique to signal authenticity to a past epoch.

Because dellepoca is not a conventional lexical item, there is no widely recognized entity, canon, or body of literature devoted to it under this exact spelling. The concept it conveys aligns with the broader Italian term for describing things from a particular historical period. See also dell'epoca, epoca, period piece.
