An opulent backpack for the urban dweller:  Pal Zileri, the Italian brand specialized in both formal and casual menswear, presented Tadzio with Rubelli brocades

Combining tradition with modernity in the polymorphous portrait of a conscious man: this is the Pal Zileri ethos. The revamp of the Milanese boutique on Via Manzoni now offers an environment that contains and amplifies such timeless values. These same qualities are combined in a transversal and trans-generational object imagined by creative director Rocco Iannone to be at the crossroad of fashion and design.

Available in five combinations made with the Rubelli fabrics that delimit within the boutique specific environments with dense textures, Tadzio is a functional backpack for the urban dweller. The precious materials and the crest on the front pocket give a contemporary spin of unexpected contrasts. Only twenty numbered pieces have been produced for each fabric, with an assortment of small accessories.

ARMANI/CASA EXCLUSIVE TEXTILES BY RUBELLI 2017-2018

Armani/Casa is the expression of Giorgio Armani’s own vision of the home as an intimate but sophisticated setting. The collection is composed from geometric motifs that are enriched by technique, precious materials and particular colour combinations. The new fresh colours introduced to the collection are giving a life to the geometrical patterns. Exquisite embroideries that, over time, have characterised the Armani image, are transformed into textures that are now seen in the home collection.
