The quest for elegance is at the heart of the Spring Summer 2024 collection from Brunello Cucinelli, which has been conceived as an instrument for expressing the distinctive characteristics of the modern man.
Fresh colours, soft volumes, carefully balanced garments, paisley patterns and details inspired by the French Riviera offer a versatile spectrum of elegance. As always, the man and his choices remain an essential point of reference.
Colours
Unique natural textures, délavé and slub effects enhance the summery colours, which pair with timeless neutrals to create a new, fresh and intense balance. Pink, raspberry, turquoise and mauve not only influence the patterns on shirts and tees, but also add refined accents to sartorial elegance, always offset by the unique textural effects of the fabrics.
Harmonious combinations are guaranteed by the wide range of beige tones, which move from the lightest to the most intense nuances bordering on brown. Grey hues are developed in pale variations to express freshness and lightness. Finally, blues, even in their brightest shades such as the refined Prussian Blue, convey a sense of refinement and elegance.
Shapes
The soft volumes found in the collection guarantee contemporary appeal. As well as trousers, a long-standing reference point for relaxed yet polished looks, softer fits have also been developed in the T-shirt and knitwear categories. Sartorial blazers have been slightly lengthened, while outerwear and trench coats are characterised by wide and fluid volumes enhanced by the use of lightweight and high-performance fabrics. A slightly shorter length accentuates the sporty character of outerwear, while wide and comfortable fits are the hallmark of the leisure line.
Materials and Patterns
The fabrics and leathers have been chosen for their lightness and comfort, and their unique and natural character enhances every nuance and silhouette of the collection. Patterns play an important role in defining the style of the looks and have been extensively developed in shirts and T-shirts. They are equally important in blazers and suits, where they introduce seasonal nuances in harmony with neutrals.
Knitwear
At the core of the collection, summer knitwear is elevated by prestigious natural fibres such as cotton, linen and silk, which are carefully mixed and matched to ensure sensations of comfort and lightness. New, softer volumes and the combination of different stitches to create three-dimensional patterns add to the range of designs.
Accessories
The quality of the materials and the craftsmanship transfers the season’s guiding principles to the accessories line, which aims to offer contemporary elegance at the service of a distinctive personality.
Along with the Derby, a major evolution in loafers makes it possible to complete looks whatever the occasion and at any moment of the season: from formal styles to deconstructed loafers, including a reinterpretation of the driving shoe, a symbol par excellence of lightness and comfort. For moments of relaxation, sneakers demonstrate the quality of the artisan workmanship with a relaxed and sober look, while the wide range of summer sandals completes the offer for the warmest months.
