“…To honour the significance of Qixi Festival, China’s traditional day of love inspired by the forbidden romance between the Weaver Fairy and the Cowherd, Loro Piana, the Italian house of luxury, presents an exclusive collection for women and men. The collection highlights the maison’s heritage of knitwear craftsmanship while capturing the poetic spirit of romance.

Soft, delicate hues of beige, grey, and navy set a refined tone, while the floral Loro Piana Whisper print, inspired by Art Nouveau, adds fluidity and continuity throughout the pieces. With its graceful lines and gentle palette, the motif elegantly blends textile artistry with a romantic sensibility.

For women, flowing silhouettes in lightweight fabrics define the season: the Thea silk shirt and Clea skirt, the high-waisted Combray shorts crafted from 100% linen treated with Rain System® technology, and the Gargano short-sleeved jersey in aloe-infused linen for extra softness. The motif also appears delicately embossed on silk scarves, elevating every ensemble with refinement.

Accessories and leather goods are equally celebrated. The floral motif is reimagined on the Extra Double necklace charm and continues across iconic handbags such as the Extra Pocket L19 and the Extra Bag L27, both symbols of Italian craftsmanship and modern elegance.

The Extra Bag, in particular, combines luxury with function, available in a variety of fine materials: Tender Calf leather with its natural grain, Linen Calf leather with a linen-like lightness, and Summery Tussah fabric, a textile inspired by sable hair developed by Solbiati, blending linen, cotton, and silk to echo rustic natural beauty.

With this exclusive release, Loro Piana reinforces its identity as a house of refined luxury, blending artisanal mastery with exquisite materials to retell the timeless romance of Qixi through contemporary fashion, leather goods, and accessories.
