A Night Of Quiet Luxury & Big Appetites With Brunello Cucinelli & Saks

by Guest of A Guest · October 24, 2023

    Brunello Cucinelli is having quite the fête-filled year. There was his 70th birthday bash in Solomeo, a dreamy al fresco affair in Florence for Pitti Uomo, a celebrity-filled soirée at The Chateau Marmont, an intimate dinner at L'Avenue At Saks...

    The loudest name in the quiet luxury game arrived fresh off a flight from Italy last Tuesday evening to celebrate his 25-year partnership - and the launch of his exclusive capsule collection and first-ever fragrances - with retail favorite Saks. While I've yet to give their new parfums a sniff, I'd bet anything they've strong notes of ivory beige cashmere and buffed grey suede.

    Greeted upon arrival by the store's iconic windows, dressed head-to-toe in Brunello for the occasion, the Cucinelli clan made their way to cocktails inside the brand’s newly renovated women’s and men’s boutiques. Guests including Lucy Liu, Phillipa Soo, Laura Brown, Claiborne Swanson Frank and more joined for a decadent four-course Italian meal, and a lively round of dancing to the tunes of DJ Bec Adams.
