Summer in Bloom: Loro Piana Celebrates in Forte dei Marmi and La Réserve à la Plage

By The Arts & Fashion Editorial Team

Loro Piana embraces the serenity of summer with exclusive take-overs in Forte dei Marmi, Tuscany, and along the French Riviera at La Réserve à la Plage in Saint Tropez. Continuing its tradition of exclusive collaborations, this season we are transported to enchanting coastal escapes.

Forte dei Marmi: Where Art Meets Nature

Loro Piana returns to the celebrated Il Fioraio flower kiosk, imagined as an immersive journey to celebrate region's natural beauty. The space has been redesigned and decorated with Mediterranean influences. Clay-finished ivory walls, oak and chestnut wood fixtures, and softly curved niches are in dialogue with summery deck chairs and floral accents, evoking the relaxed, sun-drenched ambience of the perfect Italian summer.

To celebrate summer’s cherished moments, a curation of vibrant flowers is available for a touch of decorative bloom. The intricate shapes and delicate textures in Blooming Clay Ceramics, co-created by French artist Karim Rahman and the Barlet Soeurs, wonderfully complement the floral arrangements. In taking over the legendary kiosk once more, the effect is one that becomes a natural companion to Loro Piana’s signature textures and aesthetic. Unique, hand-made, and reminiscent of the drape of cashmere, the shop offers the perfect summer retreat.

Karim Rahman and Barlet Soeurs: Sculpting the Language of Luxury

Drawing inspiration from the Maison’s heritage, Karim Rahman researched color and glazing to create rich, evocative hues like kummel and malachite green. These tones become evocative of Mediterranean warmth and echo the quiet sophistication of the classic Loro Piana palette.

The Barlet Soeurs collection, co-created by sisters Anne-Sophie and Bénédicte Barlet, emerges as a poetic interpretation of seaside living in Tuscany. Fifth-generation artisans, the Barlet sisters have designed a series of hand-painted cylindrical vases adorned with the spirit of Tuscany’s sun-drenched hills and olive groves. Rendered in warm, earthy tones and shades of white inspired by Carrara marble, these vases capture the region’s natural beauty through evocative brushstrokes and details. Sharing values with the Maison, this special collection comes to life as a tribute to family, legacy, and excellence.

Saint Tropez: Loro Piana's Riviera Retreat

For the third consecutive year, Loro Piana returns to La Réserve à la Plage on the iconic Pampelonne Beach in Saint Tropez. Expanding its horizons, the Maison’s signature hues of white and kummel appear brilliantly on furniture, umbrellas, sunbeds, and cushions, reflecting the relaxing atmosphere of the seaside destination.

In addition to the tranquil coastal setting, Loro Piana introduces its Resort 2025 collection, exclusively available at La Réserve's pop-up boutique on Pampelonne Beach in Saint Tropez. Inspired by the serene waters and vibrant hues of Venice' Lagoon and Burano Island, the new collection honors the rich history of luxury that defines Loro Piana's Mediterranean heritage.
