Introducing: Aspesi

Menswear line Aspesi has perfected functional, anti-fashion mens style. Designer Alberto Aspesi is said to ignore seasonal fashion trends and refuses catwalk shows and glossy ad campaigns. Instead, he has cultivated his line over the past 43 years by focusing on what men actually need when they shop for new clothing. 

Enter a line filled with perfected wardrobe staples with re-worked detailing. Aspesi revolves around such pieces, like bomber jackets, loose yet slimming pants, and the signature high-performance technical fabrics that resist weather elements while keeping the body comfortable. Quality shines through with fabrics like Harris tweed, Japanese cottons, and Irish linens.


-----


The piece we are most excited to introduce this fall is the "shirt-jacket," perfect for transitional weather. This piece has the tailoring of a classic mens button-up shirt, but rendered in weather-resistant technical nylon jacket material.






-----






Until very recently, you couldn't find Aspesi outside of its home region in Northern Italy. (The first flagship only opened in Milan in 2006.) We found the line perfectly suited to the nida aesthetic, and chose to introduce the signature nylon vests and jackets, aged cotton chinos, wool jackets and peacoats, and of course the shirts upon which the line was founded.

See you soon!

Introducing: Master Coat

One of our newest additions to the designer roster at nida, Master Coat embodies the charm of Italian menswear at its best.

The line is focused on high quality fabrics and the touch of precise craftsmanship. This allows for a balance between classic, masculine elements and touches of playful creativity.

Designers Alfio Sciuto and Maurizio Carli Moretti founded the label in 1988, after they had spent over a decade working in mens fashion. The brand, as well as both designers, are from Bologna, Italy. And it is in their hometown that all pieces of the collections are designed and produced - a mark of quality and craftsmanship that follows in the Italian tradition.



















This fall's menswear collections at nida show our deepening commitment to bringing high quality, wearable mens looks to our customers. We can't wait to see you in these amazing new garments!

See you soon,
nida

Just In: Vanessa Bruno and athé

Our first shipment of Vanessa Bruno and athé for fall 2012 has arrived, and it's a decidedly darker affair than recent V.B. collections. Both lines are a backdrop of black against which rich jewel tones, sumptuous silks and detailed knits stand out. 

This collection is richly detailed, moody, but with the light touch that Vanessa Bruno fans have come to expect from the designer. In this case, the lightness shines through the dark in the form of silk organza, open weave sleeves, rounded hems, and constellation-like sparkles.















For our Vanessa Bruno loyalists and for newcomers to this fantastic designer alike, this fall's collection is not to be missed!

See you soon,
