Cividini is an Italian fashion house[1] known for producing luxury cashmere knitwear, founded in 1988 by married couple Piero and Miriam Cividini.[2]
History
Pietro and Miriam knew each other as teenagers in the 1970s, and already considered themselves a "team" at the time.[3]
At the launch of the first collection of pret-a-porter during the Milan Fashion Week in 1995, Cividini were the first to show knitwear and woven garments made of silk-steel fabric, material that, together with the different special finishing techniques (inkjet printing, tie-dye, screen printing, pigment printing, printing for corrosion, dyeing and hand-painted) defined the unique hand craftmanship of the Italian brand. These techniques and materials have become common over the years, but at the time were experimental.[2]
The RTW Spring 2016 collection used a white shirt as the base for most looks, with garments made from a variety of fabrics layered on top. The collection featured geometric motifs, and it drew inspiration from the 1980s and Japanese fashion.[4]
Collections were released in Spring 2019, Fall 2019, Spring 2020, and Fall 2020.[5] The Fall 2019 collection was inspired by Françoise Hardy's style of masculine-leaning, yet still feminine clothing. The color palette was primarily gray, black and brown. The collection included blazers, maxi-skirts, pants, and thick-knitted wool dresses.[6]
The Spring 2020 collection was inspired by the cinematography of the film The Sheltering Sky, featuring handmade prints and faded hues.[7] The Fall 2020 collection took inspirated from the 1970s and aimed to reflect "a softer version" of the era.[3]
Cividini's Fall/Winter 2026 collection has a minimalist style, with a color palette of white, gray, black, brown, and cream with hints of brighter colors.[8] JTDapper Fashion Week characterized the style of Cividini as "fashion...non-fashion," and praised the designers for "[eschewing] hyper-design to enrich every creation with intrinsic value" with "a subtle harmony between aesthetics, quality, and fit."[8]
