Loro Piana Fuses Tahitian Ease With Italian Refinement In Its Summer Resort 2024 Collection

Leave it to Loro Piana, the ultra-luxury fashion house synonymous with elegance and effortlessness, to create the summer collection of dreams. The historic Italian brand has been the purveyor of the finest textiles for six generations and is honouring 100 years of the Maison’s heritage this year.

Equally covetable is its summer offering, with the latest resort 2024 collection a marriage between the Tahitian spirit of “La vie heureuse” or “The happy life”, with renowned Italian “sprezzatura” or “stylish nonchalance”. The result is a comprehensive line of stunningly crafted staples you will want to be wrapped in all summer and beyond. Like all its creations, Loro Piana’s latest pieces embody subdued sophistication that ensure you look appropriate in any setting. 

To match the rising temperatures, Loro Piana’s unique fabrics and noble natural fibres have been transformed into lush linen jackets and cool silk trousers in the house’s iconic Solaire Antigua finishes. The result is a sumptuous, earthy collection that can take you from a palm-tree paradise to a posh promenade.

Think: a breezy linen shirt tucked into tie-front trousers, finished off with macramé moccassins. Or perhaps you’d be partial to a vest delicately embroidered with aloe fibre and cashmere thread, worn with matching tapered trousers in rusty brown, or “kokuto sugar.” Even the colours in the collection evoke the taste and feel of summer—fire orange, Kurume blue, light sand and tapioca, just to name a few.

Not to mention the sprinkle of bohemian prints: the hibiscus flower commonly found in Tahiti, with its mesmerising hues of red and purple, is printed abstractly on linen jumpsuits.

Then there’s a compact paisley print in a “deep tea” hue, which can be found on a duster coat and silk jumpsuit. And don’t worry, these floaty fabrics and punchy prints aren’t reserved for womenswear only.

Find the Tree of Life mosaic on aloha shirts and matching Bermuda shorts, as well as striped linen and silk tunics paired with loose trousers for men. The gender-neutral sandals in calfskin are the luxurious open-toe answer to your search for the perfect summer footwear. 

Even swimwear gets the Loro Piana treatment. We’re drawn to a particular square-necked one-piece in a dark sea blue, reminiscent of the deepest parts of the South Pacific Ocean.

Loro Piana’s leather pouchettes have found a loyal fanbase since its introduction and the enthusiasm extends to its resort renditions. The Cedar bucket bag, made with supple calf leather and natural, hand-woven rattan, finished off with the maison’s iconic frog closure, is sure to be on the arms of industry tastemakers this season. Rattan reigns supreme across the offerings, from a spacious crossbody to the Extra Camera case. Loro Piana enthusiasts will also welcome the addition of new accessories, like the cherry-wood wicker basket, straw hats and leather sandals, into its current line-up.

Loro Piana Resort 2024 is a head-to-toe collection that is made to be mixed and matched and accompany you to sandy shores and far-flung destinations.
