Loosen the tie

Canali FW23 delivered an earth-toned haven of relaxed elegance
By Ella Joyce | Fashion | 17 January 2023

An Italian house committed to heritage craft, this season saw Canali continued their journey into redefining masculinity for the modern man. Titled Duality of Elegance, FW23 saw Canali’s silhouette relax (not quite to a slouch, mind) allowing comfort to facilitate inner elegance, while the outside was taken care of in the form of immaculately-crafted apparel. Argyle print cardigans sit below sharp suiting, jackets exist in graphic tartan prints and dramatic quilted capes move seamlessly across the body. Sticking to a neutral palette saw earthy green, camel and brown transition to rich hues of grey and black flecked with splashes of blue and red throughout.

Turning their attention to sustainability, this collection saw the Italian house’s first venture into recycled materials, with even the padding of quilted garments being made from fabric scraps left over from the production cycle. Known for only using the finest fabric, wool, cashmere and silk formed the core of the collection while leather and shearling were crafted into gloves, hats, backpacks and shoes to offer up a fully formed wardrobe for Canali’s contemporary wearer.
