Heritage Italian Label Albiate 1830 and SUNNEI Combine for Minimal SS20 Capsule

Luxury contemporary label SUNNEI and Italian heritage brand Albiate 1830 have come together for an ultra-minimalistic capsule, which was previously seen at SUNNEI’s Spring/Summer 2020 runway show.

Now, the collection has released and introduces mens and womenswear pieces, from elevated staples such as an off white over shirt to a pair of cargo pants. The capsule collection adopts the same off white hue throughout, and sports topstitching which acts as a contrasting color on all of the minimal looks.

The men’s Arman shirt is finished with green stitching, while the overshirt is finished with blue. Cargo pants come complete with black detailing, while the women’s dress, loose fit pants and shirt come with red, orange and black detailing respectively.
SUNNEI used Albiate 1830’s technical know-how in garment production to work together in creating this collection. Everything stemmed from the idea of a traditional white shirt, and grew from there to deliver a range of everyday staples complete with dual branding and SUNNEI’s signature relaxed look.

The collection has been celebrated by video maker and photographer Michele Foti. The video captures everything from ALBIATE 1830 developing its unique poplin fabric in their factory, and finishes in Vicenza where the production of SUNNEI’s pieces takes place — all while highlighting the care and attention to detail that comes with the heritage label’s involvement and SUNNEI’s meticulous nature.
