Italian Luxury Textile Mastery
Synonymous with the zenith of Italian luxury textile mastery, Loro Piana builds its unparalleled global reputation upon an uncompromising quest for the rarest, most exceptional natural raw fibres on Earth.
Baby Cashmere
At the heart of the Maison’s legendary soft tailoring lies Baby Cashmere, gathered exclusively from the delicate underfleece of Capra Hircus kids under twelve months old in the arid highlands of Mongolia and Inner Mongolia.
Yielding a mere 30 grams of 13.5-micron fibre per animal, this ultra-fine material requires meticulous artisanal separation and advanced Italian spinning to achieve an ethereal handle and unmatched thermal insulation.
The Finest Natural Materia
Loro Piana’s uncompromising quest for rare and exceptional natural raw fibres forms the foundation of its luxury textile mastery.
Vicuña
The crown jewel of the house is Vicuña, the golden fleece of the Andes once reserved solely for Incan emperors. Measuring an astonishing 12.5 microns, it represents the finest animal fibre in existence.
Rare Provenance & Responsible Stewardship
Rescuing the species from near extinction through a historic 1994 agreement with the Peruvian government and Andean communities under strict CITES protocols, Loro Piana established a 2,000-hectare private reserve in 2008 and pioneered regional water conservation in Arequipa.
