Our Excellences
Since the year 2000, Loro Piana has awarded an annual prize for the world’s finest bale of wool. A single bale from this competition produces just enough fabric for 50 suits. The cup is awarded to an Australian or New Zealand woolgrower who produces the year’s finest bale. In 2008, Loro Piana recorded a truly exquisite bale of Merino wool marked at 12.5 micron produced by Peter and Greg Munsie and Phil and Judy Fittler of Uralla, New South Wales.
The Gift of Kings
Gathered from the masterful breeders of Australia and New Zealand, the Merino wool from Loro Piana is known as the Gift of Kings for its supreme softness, rich coloring, and durability that has been cherished by the modern man and royalty alike.
Cashmere
With a prestigious history of careful breeding, Loro Piana travels to the highlands of Mongolia and northern China to seek out the rare breed of goat known as the Capra Hircus, whose fleece carries the immaculate cashmere fibers. With delicate attention to detail and expert practices, Loro Piana has gathered some of the finest stock of Cashmere for the world to appreciate.
Baby Cashmere
One of the most exceptional discoveries to mark the 20th century was the introduction of baby cashmere on the markets. After years of study and perfection of the craft, Loro Piana has cultivated a truly excellent weave made from the cashmere of the baby Capra Hircus goat, yielding some of the softest and finest thread found throughout the world.
Pecora Nera
As the sole producer of Pecora Nera, also known as the black sheep, Loro Piana represents a truly rarified patron of fine fabrics. Their collection of Pecora Nera showcases unique and exquisite weaves only possible through the pure passion and dedication found at Loro Piana.
