Collection Information

The Ferragosto collection is inspired by the eponymous month-long Italian summer holiday. Every August, when the sun reaches its apex, Italians head from the city to the sea in search of cool waters, sea breezes, and the Italian equivalent of R&R – dolce far niente, or the sweetness of doing nothing.

Passeggiata’s silk scarfs and accessories are handcrafted in partnership with Adamley Textiles, located just several hours north of London near Macclesfield, England. Adamley has been the leader in the creation and production of luxury printed fabric for more than 50 years.

 

The wooden packaging for our silk scarfs is bespoke, and made especially for Passeggiata by August Schuster. Since 1909, Schuster has been making wooden boxes in Bünde, Germany, the pre-industrial way – entirely by hand.
