Allegri, an Italian outerwear brand, made its first appearance in New York City at Fashion Week this season. Allegri was the only outdoor show and revealed their stunning Fall/Winter 2011 collection amidst images of the brand’s history, and Italy’s top selling Allegri umbrellas carefully suspended from above. The looks Allegri presented were innovative, crisp, and were made from some of the most technologically advanced outerwear fabrics available – Techno Wool, Water Repellent Moleskin, Teflon Flannel, and even Waterproof Cashmere (yes, you read that right!). Allegri is a company that prides itself on creative craftsmanship while keeping a keen eye on the technological advances within the textile industry. Their first debut in New York? We would have to say a for-certain success.
