Isabel Benenato

You heard it first here – collections from Naples-based designer Isabel Benenato are coveted worldwide. A pared-back palette and intricate detailing underpin the brand’s directional pieces. For Benenato, her ethos around colour is an integral part of the creation process. You’ll see the designer rarely strays from her beloved monochrome – she’s stated that black evokes mystery and sensuality, and white is the shade of light and purity. Her use of these neutral hues makes the clothes eminently suitable for tasteful layering.

Relaxed knitwear from Isabel Benenato comes in rich wool mixes, with loose fits to create flowing, androgynous silhouettes. Expect a bold yet beguiling mix of exposed seams and frayed trims, which reveals the construction of the garments. For outerwear, think classic shapes, such as the trend-defying trench that you’ll reach for again and again.

Perhaps you’ll opt for draped silk, well-suited for pulling on for an evening event to exude unhurried glamour – luxe materials speak of decadent attire, while the oversized cuts of some items mean that they drape magnificently. To add a final touch to your outfit, cosy accessories in thick cashmere offer the same comfortable fit that acts as a hallmark throughout Isabel Benenato's clothing.
