| Fall Focus | At Malo, the 30-year-old knitwear ex-<br />

pert with roots in Florence, a full collection of tailored<br />

and casual clothing was recently added and attention<br />

this season falls on evening looks. Specifically, Malo<br />

re-invented the smoking jacket to re-establish a cult<br />

garment in the man’s wardrobe. Midnight blue, black<br />

and iridescent shades dominate the pieces, which fall<br />

at various lengths. The soft jackets are offset by the<br />

more linear look of trousers and shirts with pleats<br />

and knit ruches. Of course, this knit company pays<br />

extra attention to the weave of the garments, and the<br />

evening looks feature super light cashmere, mohair<br />

and wool woven into felts, shiny jacquards or striped<br />

with fur. Other details include subtle embroidery, kimono<br />

styling military style plaids.<br />

| Key Pieces | Malo fans, who own the company’s<br />

legendary cashmere sweater in all their favorite<br />

colors, will love the high-fashion style of the new<br />

evening wear.<br />

| Where to Buy | Malo’s new Milan boutique embodies<br />

the style of the company’s plans for the future.<br />

The company has 23 of its own boutiques around the<br />

world (including locations like Portofino, Cortina, Paris,<br />

Monte Carlo, Rome, New York and Aspen), and its<br />

line is also sold in exclusive departments stores. Visit<br />
