The luxury Italian shirting brand for men and women Aglini launches into the U.S. market with its eclectic Spring/Summer 2013 Collection.
The collection ranges from exquisite women’s blouses, tunics, and dresses to well-crafted men’s button-up shirts. Recognizable in its design details, fit and fabrication, an Aglini piece is a product of the highest quality and greatest value.
The Aglini creators mix styles, inspirational sources, and understand the dedication of constructing a one-of-a-kind piece. Influenced by the essence of the Italian spring and summer, the design team showcases delicate prints with Liberty textiles, eyelet, and stripes.
In addition, they utilize textiles from Italian mills such as Albini, Canclini, Sic-Tessa and Seterie Argenti. With design and luxury in mind, shirt trims and details include lace, sequins, leather, coated gros grain and buttons that incorporate mother of pearl, Swarovski crystal and pearls, enamel and metals from companies like BAP, Maribert, Gritti, and Mitiaro.
Choice fabrics consist of solids, stripes and patterns on a broad range of double twined cottons, offered in various weights, stretch or non stretch, cotton oxford, pinpoint, embroidered cotton, cotton-linen blends, 100% linen, as well as washed leather. Intricate hand details can be found in the Swarovski buttons, pression buttons, embroidery, vintage effect on collar and cuff and the matching of checks and stripes.
