When carefully considered design and craftsmanship fuse seamlessly together, the results are bound to impress. Such is the case with Max Mara Atelier, the luxurious high-end outwear line from one of Italy's finest heritage labels.
“For a masterclass in quiet luxury, house fashion director Laura Lusuardi has created capacious silhouettes using exquisite fabrics”
Since its inception in 2009, this almost couture-like collection has spotlighted its hero product, the coat, and this season is no different. For a masterclass in quiet luxury, house fashion director Laura Lusuardi has created capacious silhouettes using exquisite fabrics, cashmere predominantly, all with the “self-assured woman” in mind. Archival 1950s pieces from the brand's early years provide further inspiration.
Hand-sewn by skilled artisans and seamstresses at Max Mara's Italian HQ, this sumptuous Cocoon coat, £3,755, is cut from cashmere and wool double fabric for a subtle sheen. In addition to the warm shade of camel, other intricate features include pick stitch in red thread on the lapels and a belt in matching fabric. Pair with a light knit and leather skirt for an effortless, yet seriously pulled-together, city look.
