Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Interim Financial Information	Interim Financial Information: The interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as promulgated in Item 210 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial position as of June 30, 2012, results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, and cash flows for the siz months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, as applicable, have been made. The results for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K.
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation: Retrospettiva, Inc. (the "Company") was organized under the laws of the State of California in November, 1990 to manufacture and import textile products, including both finished garments and fabrics. The Company’s manufacturing facilities and warehouses were located primarily in Europe. The Company ceased operations in 2001 and was inactive from 2002 until commencement of the development stage. On August 2, 2004, the Company was terminated, by administrative action of the State of California as a result of non-filing of required documents with the State of California. Effective February 15, 2007, the Company reinstated its charter. Effective October 11, 2006 (commencement of the development stage) efforts commenced to revive the Company. Legal counsel was hired to address litigation involving the Company and activities were undertaken to prepare and file delinquent tax and financial reports. Furthermore, a financial judgment against the Company dating back to 2002 was addressed and a final settlement was reached in October 2007. The Company filed various delinquent reports to become current in its reporting obligations to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and various taxing authorities. The Company intends to evaluate, structure and complete a merger with, or acquisition of, prospects consisting of private companies, partnerships or sole proprietorships. The Company may seek to acquire a controlling interest in such entities in contemplation of later completing an acquisition.
Development Stage Company	Development Stage Company: Based on the Company’s business plan, it is a development stage company since planned principle operations have not yet commenced. Accordingly, the Company presents its financial statements in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America that apply to developing enterprises. As a development stage enterprise, the Company discloses its retained earnings (or deficit accumulated) during the development stage and the cumulative statements of operations and cash flows from commencement of development stage to the current balance sheet date. The development stage began on October 11, 2006, when management commenced its efforts to revive the Company.
Per Share Amounts	Per Share Amounts: Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if potentially dilutive securities are converted into common shares. Potentially dilutive securities, such as stock options and warrants, are excluded from the calculation when their inclusion would be anti-dilutive, such as periods when a net loss is reported or when the exercise price of the instrument exceeds the fair market value. During 2012 and 2011, the Company has not issued any potentially dilutive securities.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management routinely makes judgments and estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates that are critical to the accompanying financial statements include the identification and valuation of assets and liabilities, valuation of deferred tax assets, and the likelihood of loss contingencies. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Estimates and assumptions are revised periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the financial statements in the period it is determined to be necessary. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards	Recently Adopted Accounting Standards. The Company evaluates the pronouncements of various authoritative accounting organizations, primarily the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), the SEC, and the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”), to determine the impact of new pronouncements on US GAAP and the impact on the Company. Accounting Standards Codification - In June 2009, FASB established the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) as the single source of authoritative US GAAP to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative US GAAP for SEC registrants. The ASC is a new structure which took existing accounting pronouncements and organized them by accounting topic. The ASC did not change current US GAAP, but was intended to simplify user access to all authoritative US GAAP by providing all the relevant literature related to a particular topic in one place. All previously existing accounting standards were superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the ASC is considered non-authoritative. New accounting standards issued subsequent to June 30, 2009, will be communicated by the FASB through Accounting Standards Updates (ASU’s). The ASC was effective during the period ended September 30, 2009. Adoption of the ASC did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company has recently adopted the following new accounting standards: Subsequent Events - In May 2009, the ASC guidance for subsequent events was updated to establish accounting and reporting standards for events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued. The guidance was amended in February 2010. The update sets forth: (i) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, (ii) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet in its financial statements, and (iii) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements. The amended ASU was effective immediately and its adoption had no impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Fair Value Measurements – In January 2010, ASU 2010-6 amended existing disclosure requirements about fair value measurements by adding required disclosures about items transferring into and out of levels 1 and 2 in the fair value hierarchy; adding separate disclosures about purchase, sales, issuances, and settlements relative to level 3 measurements; and clarifying, among other things, the existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation. The ASU was adopted during the period ended June 30, 2010, and its adoption had no impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Consolidations – ASU 2009-17 revises the consolidation guidance for variable-interest entities. The modifications include the elimination of the exemption for qualifying special purpose entities, a new approach for determining who should consolidate a variable-interest entity, and changes to when it is necessary to reassess who should consolidate a variable-interest entity. The ASU was adopted during the period ended June 30, 2010, and its adoption had no impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Updates	Recently Issued Accounting Standards Updates. The following accounting standards updates were recently issued and have not yet been adopted by the Company. These standards are currently under review to determine their impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. ASU No. 2010-11 was issued in March 2010, and clarifies that the transfer of credit risk that is only in the form of subordination of one financial instrument to another is an embedded derivative feature that should not be subject to potential bifurcation and separate accounting. This ASU will be effective for the first fiscal quarter beginning after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. ASU No. 2010-13 was issued in April 2010, and will clarify the classification of an employee share based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which the underlying security trades. This ASU will be effective for the first fiscal quarter beginning after December 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. There were various other accounting standards updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or were applicable only to specific industries. None of these additional recent updates are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, operations, or cash flows.
