Italy is a unique country of rare beauty. The sea, the mountains, the cities, the historical richness of the places, the archaeology, the culture, the monuments, the tradition for food, art, architecture and the incredible craftsmanship and tailoring, which is still handed down from father to son, are the uniqueness of this country. Since the 19th century, the Grand Tour was a journey that had Italy as its destination, thus becoming one of the most iconic places to visit for summer holidays. Capri with its Amalfi Coast, Portofino with the Ligurian Riviera, Venice with its Lido, became places of pure aesthetics.
The tailored cut of jackets, amphora trousers, linen shirts, stripes, polo shirts, sweaters, raffia and leather woven by skilful hands of craftsmen for shoes, overcoats and jackets, are artefacts of a pure Italianness. Even today, this aesthetic is for a sophisticated summer.
The art of weaving, reminiscent of crochet, makes its debut in men’s fashion with the use of raffia and leather. Applied to jackets, polo shirts, and sweaters, this technique adds an unmistakable touch of Italian craftsmanship to each piece.
The sophisticated solid-colored palette, adorned with accents of Black Sicily, white, beige, burgundy, forest green, and brown, stands in contrast to an array of prints and intricate decorations. From stripes of different widths to refined coral embroideries, these elements elevate shirts and bermuda shorts, infusing them with pure elegance.
In this enchanting tapestry of interwoven elegance, emerges a collection of sophisticated weekend bags. Among them, the Sicily bag stands out in its oversized, deconstructed form, alongside the Marlene in croco print and raffia, and the Adamo tote, bucket bags, clutches, and crossbody phone holders. These are to be worn coordinated with long belts, lace-ups, and moccassini.
