MAXMARA

Max Mara is an Italian ready to wear label, founded in 1951 by Achille Maramotti. It is regarded as one of the important names in the global modern ready to wear world. The brand designs with independent women in mind, and it favours low-key design over anything showy. Craftsmanship is passed down through the house, and that shows in what it says it cares about most: quality, creativity and skilled making. If you like clothes that keep a quiet profile and put the making first, Max Mara is worth a look. You can find the label at MACHINE-A, the London concept store, which ships worldwide.
