Aspesi: a timeless classic of Italian tailoring
The brand presents the shirts from the FW20 collection
July 31st, 2020
Tradition, rigor and constant stylistic research: these are the principles that embody the timeless style of Aspesi, a brand that has written its history through minimal and sophisticated collections. The company, founded in Legnano by Alberto Aspesi in 1969 (at the time it was called D-Camiceria by Alberto Aspesi) and always specialized in the production of shirts, over the years has grown to establish itself as one of the most important brands in the world of informal clothing, known and appreciated for the use of exclusive and avant-garde fabrics, as shown by the advertising campaigns taken already in the 1980s by Peter Lindbergh and with supermodels as Linda Evangelista and Christy Turlington.
For the Fall/Winter 2020 collection, the brand continues to embrace its unconventional spirit and above all the counter-current no-logo philosophy (a road that it has also recently traveled, with the design of its new store in via San Pietro All'Orto, in Milan), addressing a consumer that looks for timeless garments.
For the Women collection, the silhouettes and materials are typical of the female fit, but play with a masculine look: the plaid motifs become intriguing in the impalpable silk blouses, while micro floral prints bloom on the blouses.
For the Men collection, however, the velvet shirts are enriched with different blouson details, while the overshirts in tailored materials are enriched with workwear details. Military satin is used for zipped shirt-jackets, alongside slightly padded flannel shirts. Finally, colorful Baja stripes vibrate on the checker shirts and the bleached effects introduce a grunge touch.
