Gilet in Superfine Doublé Merino
The Emi is expertly handstitched from Loro Piana's superfine merino, a luxurious double wool crafted from prized lots of exceptional New Zealand fleece. Inherently, this fabric is as soft as cashmere and feels just as indulgent.
The warm white hue exudes pure, understated elegance, adding a bright touch to a seasonless wardrobe. Wear it belted or unbelted. Sculpt the collar around the neck or fold to create a slim shawl lapel. This signature style effortlessly transforms a look into a statement.

Measure straight across, edge to edge, at approx. 1" below the armhole and double the measurement.

Measure from the high point of shoulder (where the neck meets the shoulder) straight down to hem.

How to measure?
For best results, take your measurements over your undergarments using a fabric tape measure.
Chest: Measure underneath your arms around the fullest part of your chest.
Waist: Wrap the tape measure around the slimmest part of your waist, between your rib cage and navel, leaving it loose enough for one finger to fit.
Low Hip: With your feet together, measure around the fullest part of your hips.
Loro Piana's double wool is an exquisite blend of craftsmanship and innovation created by joining two layers of very fine fabric together on a specially engineered loom. This process reveals a lightweight, reversible fabric with two beautifully finished sides, perfect for crafting supremely soft, sculptural silhouettes.
Constructing a double-face garment is a labor of love. Seams are carefully opened with a special blade and sewn back together entirely by hand. This technique demands the highest quality fabric and intricate handwork. Although time-consuming, the result is a clean, lightweight garment with a luxurious unlined interior.
