     Coming soon is our collaboration with Issimo, the latest venture of Marie-Louise Scio, CEO and Creative Director of Pellicano Hotels. Issimo is the new e-commerce and lifestyle platform inspired by Italy’s great design and cultural heritage, that takes the best of the country to the world.

    The Solid & Striped x Issimo collection looks to the glamour of Slim Aarons photos and the pellicano hotels for inspiration, combined with the classic, timeless Solid & Striped swim styles.

   “We are constantly inspired by the perfect travel destination, so a collaboration with Marie-Louise seemed inevitable. We’ve created the ultimate vacation wardrobe fit for the luxurious Pellicano Hotels”

    “I love Solid & Striped because the brand is timeless yet young and fun. I had this fantasy of a croc print bathing suit inspired by the Slim Aarons photo at the pool in the “Hotel Il Pellicano” book and really wanted to develop a collection that reflected the different eras of swimwear styles I grew up with.”

    The styles are classic and timeless, elevated by the luxe shiny fabrics, rope straps and elegant gold rings. The suits are made to be paired with ready-to-wear for an easy boat-to-lunch look, Italian style.

   The campaign, shot at Hotel Pellicano by Terrence Connors and styled by Juliana Salazar, featured Alexandra Agoston.


  The Solid & Striped x Issimo collection will be available this Summer at solidandstriped.com, Issimo, Hotel Il Pellicano, The Mezzatorre Hotel and select retailers. The Issimo platform launched May 2020 - https://issimoissimo.com
