The family-owned Italian outerwear company Allegri has introduced a fall line of jackets made from the designer’s newest fabric innovation,
Rain Cashmere (
www.allegri.com). Achieved by dipping cashmere thread in Teflon before weaving it into fabric, the material remains soft, but is also water-repellent. The collection, priced from $995 to $1,595, includes a five-pocket travel blazer, a single-breasted coat, and a sporty blazer with a removable hood (pictured). Rain Cashmere marks Allegri’s 2,000th fabric introduction since the company’s launch in 1971 in the small town of Vinci outside Florence.
