Boglioli's pioneering style of relaxed tailoring has had an extraordinarily influence on menswear over the past decade. The brand's unstructured jackets and lounge suits, often washed or garment dyed, have created a new niche, blurring the traditional lines of distinction between tailoring and sportswear. In increasingly informal societies, the influence of this casual yet well-dressed look has been radical, spawning a host of imitators. Despite its success and expansion, Boglioli has managed to stay true to the style it originated, and continues to manufacture each collection within Italy, using the finest Italian fabrics.
Boglioli's Spring 2014 collection has begun to arrive at here Trunk, and while the style hasn't changed, the brand's designers have continued to source brilliantly unconventional fabrics, keeping things interesting as ever. One standout piece is the Dover jacket in a silk-blend piqué fabric. Often associated with polo and tennis shirts, piqué is a highly breathable dobby fabric with a 'waffle' texture, ideal for warmer weather. The addition of silk yarns adds a typically luxurious element to the jacket's finish.
