MTM Suit Loro Piana Wool-Silk-Linen (6087)
The design in the picture is for inspiration only; you are, of course, 100% free to design your suit as you wish, double-breasted, single-breasted, peak or notch lapel, pockets, etc.
Trousers can be with/without pleats, side adjusters/buckles instead of a belt, etc.
Loro Piana is known for extremely high raw material quality (fiber selection) and very uniform weaving/finish.
This typically means: a beautiful drape, a clean surface, good colours and high comfort, but also that you often pay for “perfection” and not necessarily for extra durability.
Loro Piana Summertime Wool Silk Linen Fabric
-
Typical fibre composition: 46% wool, 6% silk, 48% linen
-
Characteristics:
-
Medium-weight fabric, around 250–270 g/m — perfect for spring/summer.
-
Good balance between structure (wool), sheen (silk) and freshness/texture (linen).
- Usage: Primarily for summer suits and blazers that need to be elegant but also comfortable in warm weather.
-
✅ Strengths: Very versatile summer balance, nice drape, and very breathable with its light and open weave.
⚠️ Drawbacks: Linen wrinkles a bit, silk makes the fabric more delicate.
🧠 When to choose this fabric
-
If you want elegance + a luxurious finish without going full silk look.
-
Perfect for blazers and light suits, where the silhouette needs to be fluid and refined.
-
Less robust over time — better for occasions and office wear rather than daily use.
-
A more versatile summer suit base: combines structure, comfort and a light texture
-
Suitable for travel, summer wear and offices in warm climates.
-
It feels a bit more business casual, as linen is prominent.
💡 Practical weight and usage advice
-
250–280 g/m: Ideal for spring/summer use in blended fibres
-
Light weave
-
Mid-to-open weave: More air, but also more texture and a bit less formal — typically what “Summertime” represents.
