Loro Piana is a story of excellence and passion for the extraordinary, passed down for six generations. Master of Fibres, celebrating the Maison’s 100th anniversary and written by Nicholas Foulkes, recounts the incredible saga of a family of visionary entrepreneurs and shares the most significant milestones of Loro Piana, recounting how the House went from a wool trading company to the incredible brand it is today.
Through extensive interviews with members of the Loro Piana family gathering facts and stories, and a deep dive into the Loro Piana archives of photographs and historical documents, the author, historian, and journalist Nicholas Foulkes takes readers on an extraordinary journey through time, highlighting unforgettable moments in the Loro Piana universe, deeply rooted in Italian know-how and craftsmanship.
This handcrafted volume of 196 pages features 150 illustrations and is housed in a luxury clamshell case and covered with the Loro Piana Tela Sergio fabric, crafted from cotton and linen, one of Sergio Loro Piana favorite linen fabrics. The cover is a testament to the Maison’s savoir-faire and a tactile delight, a nod to the rich sensorial qualities of the House.
Founded in Paris in 1994 by Prosper and Martine Assouline, Assouline is the first luxury brand on culture. It began with the desire to create a new, contemporary style of book, using the couple's experienced eye for visually rich stories and compelling narratives.
Guided by their passion for knowledge, culture and travel, the Assoulines have since expanded their vision to 1,700 titles in three main collections, along with special editions and unique library accessories—a grand oeuvre of inspiring creations. Throughout the last quarter of a century, the brand has established a network of international boutiques in prominent locations across the globe.
With a distinguished team of creative talents—which includes the founders' son Alexandre—the brand continues to reinvent the notion of true luxury. Assouline’s roster of collaborators includes some of the world’s most respected brands, artists, photographers, writers and designers.
