The visuals showcase a stunning warm-weather collection featuring Pashmy leather outerwear, linen and crochet cotton pieces, scarf tops, striped shirts, [Gommino](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-autobranded) loafers with metallic heel details, [Metal Dots bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summer-handbag-collection), and T Timeless bags. The bag silhouette is made available in a crochet raffia shopping version and a top handle style that can be customized with gold lettering through the MySignature project. The use of Pashmy leather, described as exceptionally lightweight and soft, solves a common complaint about leather garments being too heavy or stiff for warm weather. The Gommino loafer, already recognized as a symbol of Italian taste, becomes more versatile with metallic heel details that dress up the shoe without sacrificing the comfort and walkability that made the original famous.
