Cividini resort 2021


For over 30 years Cividini has produced and traded on their superb craftmanship as purveyors of fine cashmere. This season, what struck me is that there is a minimalism to the clothes and yet there is something very urbane, slick and chic about them. These are simple shapes for women of a certain station in their lives.

No question they are somewhat basic but still possess enough fashion to beckon their clients to continue buying their product. They are classic without being boring with proportions, nuance and looks that vary throughout. The palette is simple with just a few dashes of paprika, a shot of lilac, the shapes are easy, not sloppy and once again the clothes are ageless and in tune with the times, we are living in.

I repeat myself in saying that these are not the clothes that will garner pages of editorial or gushing reviews but they are the clothes that women will want to wear and own and that is a rarity these days.

Kiton Men & Women Spring Summer 2021


Kiton has long been known as possibly the top of the ladder when it comes to men’s tailored clothing. Their suits are not for those who watch their pennies, in fact, their clothing is for those who have oodles of disposable income if they choose Kiton as their go-to resource for suits.

Of late, the brand has been evolving while holding onto their DNA and has in the past couple of years added womenswear to their repertoire. It is my opinion that they have successfully and admirably handled the transition in both areas.

No, the clothes will not set the world on fire nor will there be endless going editorials or rave reviews but look at the clothes…really look and really think of the times we are living in now.

Simple without being minimal and tasteful with no gimmicks or “sleight of hand.” Just beautiful clothes… here’s a concept…presented as two cohesive collections that complement each other.

In my mind, the clothes are timely and timeless as well as ageless. HHHow many collections can even come close to that description without being boring? One last thing ... these are clothes for adults and not wanna be rockers or skateboarders or rappers!
