Fabric Research The Essence of Animi Malcesine
Natural Fibres: Authenticity and Comfort
At Animi Malcesine, every garment begins with a conscious choice of materials. Our philosophy balances contemporary style with a deep focus on fabric quality, creating collections that reflect both fashion and substance.
We prioritize natural fibres known for their superior performance and timeless appeal. Cotton, linen, hemp, silk, cashmere, and alpaca are at the core of our collections.
These materials are selected for their:
- Breathability
- Softness on the skin
- Durability over time
- Natural comfort
Natural fibres allow garments to adapt to the body, offering a refined and effortless wearing experience.
Sustainable Innovation: Viscose and Advanced Fibres
Alongside natural fibres, we explore innovative materials derived from cellulose, such as viscose, rayon, and modal.
We also work with Tencel™ (Lyocell), a fibre made from eucalyptus trees, appreciated for its sustainability, lightness, and exceptional softness.
Fabric Blends: Performance Meets Design
Our research extends to fabric blends, where different fibres are combined to enhance performance, texture, and wearability.
Some of our preferred combinations include:
- Cotton–Linen
- Linen–Viscose
- Cotton–Hemp
- Linen–Silk
- Wool–Cashmere
- Wool–Alpaca
- Wool–Silk
- Wool–Cotton
Blending fibres allows us to create garments that are both functional and refined.
From Research to Excellence: Les Îls and Hindi
Michele’s constant search for partners capable of meeting the needs of his clientele — customers who travel from across Italy to personally touch and feel each garment before purchasing — has driven him across Italy in pursuit of excellence.
This journey led to two exceptional womenswear brands: Les Îls and Hindi. Both share an uncompromising dedication to the finest natural fibres — linen, silk, and alpaca — crafted with superior Italian manufacturing. Each piece is a testament to the belief that what you wear should feel as extraordinary as it looks.
Our Goal: Everyday Comfort and Lasting Quality
Our mission is to design clothing that feels as good as it looks. Each piece is created to be:
- Comfortable
- Soft and pleasant
- Breathable
- Resistant and long-lasting
Through continuous fabric research, we ensure that every garment embodies quality, durability, and effortless style.
