Simply Abu Dhabi XXXI

BRUNELLO CUCINELLI I talian master of cashmere, the man that made the small town of Solomeo (Perugia, Italy) the Kingdom of Cashmere, knows exactly how to dress a man. Smart and sleek without being boring, this Fall Winter collection by Cucinelli sees a sleek, slim silhouette emerge as true protagonist. Cashmere sweaters, velvet pants, wool trousers, jeans, shirts, bombers and leather jackets are the pieces in the collection that are mixed and combined with a sense of smartness and elegance that is rare today. For instance, designers tend to dress sleek and model-sized men of position in the world whereas Cucinelli wants to dress everyone, creating looks that range from nights out with friends to an informal aperitivo, from the day at the office to the most elegant nights in tuxedo and papillon. Colours from the collection range from beige and brown to black, burgundy and grey. They are bright colours, but perfect for the metropolis and are, of course, discreet. In fact, one of Cucinelli’s most important style features are his pure lines and timeless fashion statement for those who appreciate quality and understatement at its highest level. For the accessories range, the Italian designer presented weekend bags, large but very spacious and clean in terms of design and metropolitan inspired boots, perfect for every occasion…except for a tuxedo where the classic dress shoe still reigns!
