After the tumult of 2020, it made many of us to reevaluate our relationship with the clothes hanging in our closets. Suddenly the emotional impact of dressing well, and the ability of clothes to not only bolster us, but raise our spirits and change our entire outlook, became crystalline; underscoring the value of understated pieces that can be styled just as easily for a video conference call as they can for a walk in the park. Enter, Brunello Cucinelli. The label’s deft balance of elegance and ease has always been its calling card, and this signature aesthetic is more relevant now than ever.
This season let Brunello Cucinelli’s clean lines and sumptuous fabrics breathe new life into your closet. Put an elevated spin on your off-duty look by investing the label’s sumptuous leather pants. Cast in a rich shade of olive green, they’re the day-to-night piece par excellence. Play with textures by pairing with the label’s cozy lurex cardigan and sneakers for a chic daytime look; after dark, finish with a white tee, barely-there sandals and statement earrings for an insouciant evening ensemble. Alternatively, experiment with layering by belting the label’s timeless suede safari-style jacket over a pair of wide-leg linen pants. This effortless combination can be styled to work for any occasion and also boasts year-round appeal. Better yet, both pieces boast extra style mileage when worn separately, making them an invaluable addition to any woman’s wardrobe.

Of course, while Brunello Cucinelli might be best known for its more casual designs, the house’s focus on quality and craftsmanship also lends itself to eveningwear. No matter what’s on the agenda, an embellished chiffon tee, complete with a distinctive high-neck detail, is sure to make an impact. Particularly when paired with a perfectly fitted white column skirt. Suitably minimal and yet rich in detail, this tonal look is the ideal choice for women who value comfort as well as aesthetics. After all, comfort and confidence go hand in hand.
When you get down to brass tacks, the enduring allure of Brunello Cucinelli’s designs lie in the way they play a supporting role to the woman who is wearing them, and always bring her natural beauty and style to the fore. So, while the house’s designs might not appear directional, they’re truly transformative.
