Designed for both city and mountain settings, inspired by nostalgic New York holiday charm and the whitewashed wonderland beauty of the French Alps, each layer of this seasonal collection blurs seamlessly together, culminating in a deliciously simple but decadent capsule that makes packing for your winter vacay a blizzard-perfect breeze.
A refined blend of sublime day-to-night elegance created from deliciously cozy natural fabrics that celebrate sensual textures and layers, fuzzy mohair, velvet, bouclé, and baby cashmere are bound together in fluid, voluminous proportions for try-not-to-touch-me tactility that sizzles in sub-zero temperatures.
In a perfectly polished palette of eternally elegant neutrals, where winter white, soft caramel, deep chocolate, rosy nudes and rich forest green take center stage, the soft foundation of baby cashmere is amped up with chunky cable knits and occasional graphic stripes, adding another level of textural depth.
Zibeline leather amplifies the elegance of the Loom and Extra bag, while the new Bale Softy bag, crafted from supple leather, complements the relaxed silhouettes of the flawless ready-to-wear line. Meanwhile, fabulously fluffy boots and hats add fun and frivolity, Yeti-style, sprinkling jet-set glamorpuss allure as the perfect finishing touch.

Inspired by Les Arcs’ snowy peaks, the ski and après-ski line blends technical performance with artisanal craftsmanship, spotlighting pieces like the Icer jacket, Spagna jacket, and Traveller, crafted in Cash Storm, Capra Cashmere, and Curly Fur. Layered white-on-white looks and snowflake jacquard patterns enhance the alpine mood.
As day turns to night, eveningwear reaches a higher altitude. For men, tuxedo tailoring gains depth through textured fabrics, while women’s pieces explore volume through structured forms. The smoking suit, reinterpreted in grain de poudre, glides effortlessly into the women’s wardrobe with sultry panache.

Baby cashmere coats and capes add featherlight warmth and structure, complemented by silk velvet and Light mireille fabrics that create fluid draping balanced by precise tailoring.
A foliage motif appears subtly across garments, while black, white, and gold threads interplay across refined textures and patterns.
Completing the collection, the Grande Unita scarf – a Loro Piana icon since the 1980s – is reintroduced in extra-fine cashmere with a signature frisson finish, available in a spectrum of neutral, pastel and saturated vibrant tones.
A nod to the Maison’s early legacy, the Grande Unita scarf has been reissued in extra-fine cashmere with a signature frisson finish. A cornerstone of Loro Piana’s craftsmanship, its luminous surface and buttery texture is reimagined this season in neutral, pastel, and vivid color variations.
With everyday signatures for the holiday season and beyond, whether you’re mountain-bound or enjoying the festive season at ground level, this is a collection destined to anchor your winter wardrobe for decades to come.
