Identity 07
Caterina
Milan • Black cotton twill
I’ve lived in London for eleven years and my mother still asks what I need from Esselunga before every visit. I say ‘nothing’, then fly back with half a suitcase of things I could absolutely buy here.
I listen to her voice notes at 2× on the Tube, refuse to call 6:30 dinner, and complain about Milan all year. Then Design Week starts and I’m suddenly back, irritated by the queues and telling everyone they’re going to the wrong places.
I think I’ve become more Milanese since I left.

Design Notes
The jacket began with a slightly unreasonable question: if this were the only jacket you owned, what would it need to get right?
Seven samples later, the result is deliberately simple. Both faces are designed to function as the outside, never as an outer and a lining. The collar sits high enough to shelter your chin while leaving room for a scarf. The cuffs turn back to adjust the sleeve length. Zipped pockets become concealed storage when the jacket is reversed.
We gave the same attention to things nobody else sees. The pocket lining is exceptionally soft Italian viscose simply because your hands spend time there. Luxury usually concentrates on what other people notice. We were also interested in what the wearer notices.
We weren't trying to give you reasons to own four jackets. We were trying to make one enough.

Responsibility
We produce in small, considered runs rather than building volume for its own sake.
Reversibility is part of the same approach: designing more genuine use into one garment instead of multiplying products for every variation.
We avoid unnecessary synthetic additions and favour single-fibre materials where they make sense, with longevity considered both physically and aesthetically.
