Riva 1920 teams up with Lamborghini

02/02/2017

The Italian style of Riva 1920 and Collezione Automobili Lamborghini meet at the presentation of men's RTW Fall Winter 2017/18

The focus is a new clothing line with a luxurious, classic and sporty style, where the mastery of Lamborghini joins that of some of the most famous Made in Italy fashion houses: among them, Hettabretz - the Bologna-based artisan clothing brand - and Enzo Bonafé footwear designer and manufacturer.

And so, during the launch of the collection, which took place at the prestigious Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Milan, alongside the autumn/winter 2017/18 clothing collections, there are some of Riva 1920's bestsellers with such precious artifacts in walnut from areas of reforestation, as well as some of the brand's best-selling items.

These were reinterpreted with the new Volcano black finish, an artisanal process of carbonizing cedar that is inspired by ancient Japanese techniques.

Without a doubt the central feature of the space is a table in Kauri, an ancient wood from New Zealand dated as 50,000 years old, and which has always been of the high points of Riva1920.
