Stone Island celebrates its 30th anniversary this summer. The company developed its reputation and loyal following with an almost singular focus on fabric research and development. Company headquarters in Ravarino, Italy, have a dedicated Material Research Lab and Experimental Color Lab. Stone Island is not the only brand known for the use of technical fabrics but few companies are willing to dedicate the same amount of time or resources to fabric and performance development.
For Autumn Winter 2012 Company President and Creative Director Carlo Rivetti’s sticks to the script. The collection plays with themes very familiar to Stone Island fans, from the technical fabrics to the military and nautical influences, but keeps it fresh.
