The highest perfection in shirting fabrics. A technological service for tailoring. The most famous Scottish shirt brand, acquired by Albini Group in 1992, is the highest level interpreter of the Albini Group. Fabrics made with superfine yarns, made from the finest cotton and linen in the world such as Cullinan 300/2, the fabric made with the prized Giza 45, the finest cotton in the world in the 300/2 yarn count, and Millennium Star in 330/3, the most precious cotton fabric ever created, in which the processing in the triple twisted confers exceptional strength.

Albiate 1830: denim and jacquard couture

Albiate presents denim fabrics and bespoke jacquards, which are ideal for top of the range sportswear. This season Albiate offers colourful denim, besides the indigo blue there are red, green, blue/black and brown sporty designs, with more sophisticated designs alternating with prints and jacquard.

In particular, the research for Albiate in yarn-dyed indigo has allowed them to develop new bases with a variety of structures and weights ranging from classic shirting fabrics right up to outerwear weights.

Bases in classic denim, where a broad proposal is available from service program, sit together with new bases in stretch poplin and twills treated as flannels, also in lighter weights which are more sophisticated than typical winter fabrics.

The stylistic research of Albiate has resulted in jacquard patterns with indigo macro and micro-themed designs and geometric designs that alternate with fancy fil-coupes which stand out in a very detailed proposal.
