This extraordinary worsted fabric takes its name from the island of Tasmania, south of Australia, because it was originally made using only the merino wools coming from its uncontaminated lands.
Inspired by Priest Cloth®, a lightweight fabric that Loro Piana produced especially for ecclesiastical garments, Tasmanian® was created in the 1960s in response to the growing need for new and modern clothing that was light, versatile, crease-resistant, and creaseproof, and particularly suited for air-conditioned environments.
Silk has a low density and is therefore light and comfortable, shimmers and gleams, and holds its shape very well. The material provides excellent insulation against heat and cold, and hardly wrinkles.
Silk continues to be one of the most expensive and most exclusive fibers in the world, and the demand for it is at least as great as it was in ancient times.
Tasmanian Summer® is now produced using the most select wools from Australia, the ideal habitat for the merino sheep whose fleece consists of extremely fine fibres which, when worked using the most advanced spinning techniques, give to the fabric‘s unique characteristics of transpiration, thermal insulation, resistance, lightness and comfort.
At 210 g/m, the Super 150 ´s Tasmanian Summer® offers the lightest possible fabric for dressing elegantly in every season of the year.
