Summer Tweed by Loro Piana

View fullsize

Loro Piana combines the brilliance of wool, silk, and linen together to give you the wrinkle resistance of wool, yet the breathability and earthiness of silk and linen. Through relationships with our workshops and fabric mills, we’re able to offer the luxury mill of Loro Piana at an incredible value. This season we’ve put together some of our brightest and best textured fabrics. A little more about Loro Piana:

Originally from Trivero (a district in north Italy famous for textile production), the Loro Piana family started as merchants of wool fabrics at the beginning of the 19th century. In the second half of the 19th century, the family moved its activity to Valsesia and founded the Lanificio Fratelli Lora e Compagnia, followed by Lanificio di Quarona di Zignone & C. at the beginning of the 20th century. Franco Loro Piana, Pier Luigi’s father, started exporting fine fabrics in the 1940s and Pier Luigi and his older brother, Sergio, joined in the 1970s.
