Each season, Milano Unica stands as the epicenter of textile innovation—a gathering place where tradition, craftsmanship, and creativity converge. This year, we journeyed to Milan not only to seek inspiration for our 2026/27 collection, but also to reconnect with the partners who continue to shape the League of Rebels story.
A Tapestry of Excellence
Our time at Milano Unica was nothing short of inspiring. The exhibition halls were alive with texture, colour, and possibility—offering a first look at the fabrics that will set the tone for the seasons ahead.
Highlights From Our Key Partners
We deepened our partnership with Loro Piana, whose unwavering dedication to sourcing the world’s finest natural fibers continues to align seamlessly with our pursuit of quiet luxury. Their Spring/Summer 2026 collection introduced lightweight wools, breezy linens, and luxurious blends—each fabric capturing the effortless elegance our clients expect.
“The fabrics we’ve developed this season are a celebration of refined simplicity— designed for those who understand that true luxury speaks softly.”
— Representative, Loro Piana
At REDA Italia, a mill renowned for sustainable innovation, we explored their new technical wools and high-twist blends—perfect for the modern gentleman navigating the demands of travel, business, and leisure.
“REDA’s commitment to sustainability and versatility makes them a natural fit for League of Rebels. Their fabrics move with you, season to season, without compromising on style.”
— President, League of Rebels
A meaningful milestone this season was celebrating over 13 years of collaboration with French mill DUTEL, the artisans behind the signature jacquard fabrics that define our formal dinner jackets.
“Working with League of Rebels has always been about pushing the aesthetic of traditional jacquard forward.”
— Representative, DUTEL
We also had the pleasure of meeting with Cerruti 1881 & Piacenza, whose exceptional cloths have long been a staple for our Made-To-Measure and bespoke programs. Their vibrant color palettes and soft handfeel continue to inspire our elevated pieces.
Reflection from the Team
“Every visit to Milano Unica is a reminder of why we do what we do. It’s not just about sourcing beautiful fabrics—it’s about honoring relationships, embracing craftsmanship, and curating materials that tell a story before a stitch is even sewn. I’m excited about what we’ve discovered for Spring/Summer 2026, but more importantly, I’m grateful for the partnerships that allow us to continue evolving without losing sight of our core. This season feels like a beautiful step forward.”
Looking Ahead
This journey to Milano Unica was more than a sourcing trip—it was a reaffirmation of our commitment to craftsmanship, timeless design, and the enduring relationships that bring each collection to life.
We look forward to welcoming you back to the showroom soon and sharing the next chapter of our story.
A Night Out in Milano
No visit to Milan would be complete without taking in the city’s vibrant nightlife, and The Doping Club remains our favorite stop. Tucked away inside the concept hotel Aethos Milan, The Doping Club offers a curated, intimate setting that feels both effortlessly cool and quietly luxurious—perfectly in step with the League of Rebels spirit.
Of course, we can’t help but rate their Old Fashioned as the best in the city—crafted to perfection, balanced, and never overdone. After long days immersed in fabric selections and partner meetings, this was our place to unwind, reflect, and toast to the season ahead.
"The Doping Club has become something of a tradition for us—a quiet corner of Milan where time slows, and the cocktails always deliver."
