ITALIAN FABRICS AND PREMIUM KNITS WHEN UNDERSTATED ELEGANCE IS HIS FORTE

Words: L. Thorpe

 

If he cares about luxury and invests in premium fabrics and carefully considered pieces, he values quality above all else.

As a discerning and style-focused recipient, this is a Christmas gift that’s worth getting right. Think high-quality soft fabrics, smooth silhouettes and a clean, luxurious feel. Cashmere, merino wool and Italian fabrics are all going to tick the box, as are neutral tones and muted colourways.

Let’s start with the cashmere. A simple ribbed sock is anything but when it’s crafted from a supple cotton-cashmere blend. Combine three of their favourite colours and get a sock gift box for a well thought out present they’ll actually use. A beautifully constructed winter white scarf, made from lambswool with a dose of cashmere for extra softness, will have them anticipating the drop in temperature with joy. As for our ribbed beanie, they’ll get a kick just from the quality of the knit.

When looking at jumpers, invest in classic styles they can mix and match with like a merino camel roll neck or a cashmere crew neck jumper. With a super-soft handfeel and a world of styling possibilities, they’re both wise investments that will go far in any luxury lover’s wardrobe.

If you want to take it up a notch, this light blue overshirt should make the Christmas list. Crafted from an Italian wool-cotton blend, it’ll lock in warmth during the colder months and can be layered underneath a thick coat too. They’ll love the classic herringbone pattern. If they’re into matching sets, this taupe relaxed coord combines a wool-blend shacket and trousers for a relaxed, tailored outfit that feels intentional and exudes luxury.
