SUNSET – CASHMERE CLOUD

On the windblown desserts of Mongolia lives the Capra Hircus, or Cashmere Goat, a small but hardy animal known for producing a genuine treasure of nature. Once every spring, when the climate is milder and the animals naturally shed their coats, the goat herders harvest the cashmere. Loro Piana does the rest.

For this series, they’ve combined light and superlatively soft cashmere with mulberry silk to produce cloth with a brilliant shine, soft texture, and unique slubbiness for a relaxed, casual look. The styling in this collection has a heavy emphasis on neutral earth tones, emphasizing the understated elegance for which Loro Piana is well renowned. This collection is the ultimate of luxury summer jacketing.

ST TROPEZ

Summer doesn’t get any more glamorous than St Tropez and Scabal’s new collection is the epitome of that feeling. Linen, silk, cotton and fine wools have been mixed in different combinations to create variety and interest throughout the range.

Designed for those who want to stand out, colors and patterns are bright and fancy. Choices range from an unusual striped seersucker to a selection of vibrant large check designs. This is a collection full of textures, the ground colors give a 3D feel and the highlight colors pop, with the silk adding a luxurious shine. Perfect for dressing up a tranquil evening on the French Riviera.

CALYPSO

Dormeuil brings its rich history and technological innovation to this new summer bunch. Super 130’s wool is blended with superfine silk to bring out the variance of natural dyes, expressing depth in conservative color combinations. The deep chromatic palette is the result of a Dormeuil’s proprietary dyeing technique. Overall, the Calypso collection is an ideal combination of lightness and elegance, and a superlative choice for summer jackets.
