LA DOLCE VITA

Since Canali opened its first store in 1934, the Italian fashion company from Triuggio near Milan has become one of the best menswear brands to come out of Italy. While other houses that call themselves 'luxury brands' start to become 'mass luxury', Canali is one of the few companies left that still value craftsmanship and quality; every item is still made in-house in Italy.

 

The Canali summer collection is called 'Dolce Vita style.' The collection offers a dapper range of immaculately tailored blazers and pieces made out of soft linen and cotton. This summer is represented by tones of grey, cream, blue, white and black. These clothes might not be ideal for someone who wants to stand out in the crowd, rather they are for those who appreciate the subtlety of style.

This week we selected some nice classic pieces from Canali for you. These are the clothes that are sure to make you dazzle in the sunshine. Nothing can beat the classic linen suit for an afternoon tea party, or a darker linen blazer for an informal evening out.
