Brunello Cucinelli Spring 2027 Menswear: Cashmere and Tailoring in Shanghai

other · 2026-06-20

Brunello Cucinelli presented his Spring 2027 menswear collection in Milan while he attended the Shanghai International Film Festival for a screening of Giuseppe Tornatore's documentary about his life. The collection focused on garment-dyed cashmere sweaters with resin treatment, creating contrast between raised knit and darker zones. Tailoring featured broad lapels in washed linen and indigo denim. Formal pieces were mixed with casual: a navy dinner jacket paired with white pleated trousers, and a white pinstripe blazer with a pale sweater and washed cargo trousers. Safari and field jackets in pale gray cotton and dark brown suede were worn with shirts and ties, sometimes under washed cable knits. Leather blousons and biker jackets in pale brown showed surface abrasion, creating dissonance between softness and toughness.
