HIGH-FLYING MATCH: Italian luxury house Brunello Cucinelli, over the Wimbledon finals weekend, unveiled The Perfect Match, a special capsule collection exclusive to Harrods at the recently launched bespoke event space Helideck at the rooftop of the upmarket retailer in Knightsbridge, converted from a little-used helipad.
With a panoramic London skyline as the backdrop, the collection was presented throughout the day with rounds of mini runway shows while guests sipped Champagne and enjoyed delicious small plates and ice creams amid a heat wave.
The exclusive capsule was designed as a celebration of the brand’s dual harmony between sport and style, tradition and modernity, as well as the long-standing partnership between Brunello Cucinelli and Harrods.

It puts a big emphasis on lightweight construction, relaxed tailoring and refined materials, offering a versatile wardrobe for seamless day to night transition.
The men’s range focused on light formal attire and cashmere pieces in beige, white, navy and Venetian red. The women’s selection was all about understated glam with an array of embroidered and sequined numbers and elevated knitwear for the summer.
The London luxury retailer has stocked the Solomeo brand for many years, beginning with ready-to-wear collections and, more recently, adding lifestyle collections to the offering. The latest partnership also includes a holiday-season pop-up with a Brompton Road window display.
