Italian hyper-luxury brand
This prestigious Italian brand has its roots in Trivero, a town in the Biella region of Italy, and its beginnings date back to the early 19th century, specifically to the year 1812 when the Loro Piana family began trading wool. Humble beginnings for a brand that today is one of the most luxurious and exclusive.
It wasn't until 1924 that the business was formalized under the name Fratelli Lora e Compagnia, the spinning mill founded by Pietro Loro Piana, responsible for producing premium-quality wools and marketing them.
Over the decades, and always under the umbrella of the family tradition, the brand evolved not only in terms of its core business but also in its global reach. While wool was the initial cornerstone on which the brand was built, over time it diversified, adding the finest textiles to its portfolio, such as cashmere and vicuña, always maintaining an unmatched standard of excellence.
It is noteworthy that Loro Piana has been involved in the conservation of natural and wild spaces dedicated to the breeding of the species that produce its precious raw materials. While this could be seen as an action aimed solely at its interests and business, the positive environmental impact of these practices is undeniable.
Now that you know the origins and evolution of the brand, you will enjoy a selection of the best pieces for the upcoming winter, which you can acquire through us at The Personal Shopper Agency. Enjoy!

How to care for your Loro Piana pieces?
Properly caring for delicate Loro Piana fabrics like cashmere, vicuña wool, and mohair is essential to maintain their softness, sheen, and longevity. Here are some useful tips to keep your pieces in perfect condition for a long time:
- Handwashing: Although some garments allow machine washing, the safest way to wash these delicate materials is by hand, using cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid twisting the garment to wring it out; instead, gently press to remove excess water.
- Air drying: Never use a dryer. Instead, lay the garment flat on a clean, dry towel on a flat surface, away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
- Careful storage: Store cashmere, vicuña wool, and mohair garments in a cool, dry place. Avoid hanging them, as this can distort their shape. Instead, fold them and store them in drawers or breathable cotton bags. Consider using lavender or cedar bags to repel moths.
- Avoid excessive ironing: If you need to remove wrinkles, use a steam iron on the lowest setting and place a clean cloth between the iron and the garment.
- Repair with care: If you discover small holes or tears, seek out a specialized professional for repairs. The delicate fibers of these garments deserve expert care to ensure that repairs are nearly invisible and do not compromise the fabric's integrity.
As winter approaches, the prestige and warmth that Loro Piana brings to the world of luxury fashion are undeniable. Each piece, meticulously designed and crafted with the most exquisite fibers, not only guarantees unparalleled warmth but is also a symbol of elegance and status.
