“What makes a photograph magical is that you can make things happen that don’t happen in real life”.  These are the words of  Viviane Sassen (@vivianesassenstudio), the Dutch artist known for her  deep love of Africa that can be witnessed in the images that have marked her entire career. The million faces of a land and its peoples have become a source of true inspiration for Roberto Collina’s men’s summer collection that has transported the wise use of geometric patterns and abstract chromatic choices that are so typical of the Dutch photographer, into their garments.

Colour addiction tout court is what characterises Tekla Evelina Severin (@teklan), the Swedish photographer who can make a pure concentration of colour so inherent in every single thing truly stand out in her pictures. The veil of colourful magic surrounding her photos has led the brand to create a personal interpretation of Caribbean islands in its women’s summer collection.

Innovation and tradition are the perfect combination behind Roberto Collina’s philosophy, as the most cutting-edge technology is nothing without the craftsman’s expertise and wisdom protected by the knowledge – and hands – of men.

A perfect union that gives life to the brand’s masterpieces in which, during the first stage of creation carried out by the most futuristic machines, is followed by human intervention that makes sure that each model is unique, special and above all, perfect. Like happens, for example, with linking, that allows different knit fabrics to be assembled with each other to achieve the final garment, where experience and precision of human hands are necessary for achieving perfection. Added to by the hand-made finish where all those details of the production – from hems to stitching right up to the labels – which disappear like magic in the final product.

No, we’re not trying to talk to you about cars, but about hypertechnological machines that - with the help of the hands of the brand’s expert artisans - help turn dreams into reality.  Reality  to wear.

Cutting-edge machines with a computerized heart and a colorful soul that communicate with Roberto Collina’s many departments  using precise steps: from the style office to ‘discuss’ sketches and yarns, to the programmers who provide the detailed shape to all the knitwear’s characteristics, which are then checked and modified before start-up. A process that undergoes continuous checks and settings, even during the processing phase that each machine follows autonomously, right up to when the item is complete.

Full integration of production and creative processes in the company, where the latest-generation machinery works in harmony with a team of experts, has given Roberto Collina full control of the entire production cycle,  right up to the finished garment that, over the years has has consolidated the brand’s operational philosophy and made it its distinctive trait.
