MR PORTER x Brunello Cucinelli: The Cinematic Capsule Bringing Italian Style to Summer 2025

MR PORTER has teamed up with Brunello Cucinelli for a capsule collection that lands somewhere between laid-back Riviera cool and sharp Italian tailoring. Titled "Cinematic Symphony," the 49-piece drop is a nod to the icons of 1960s Italian cinema, distilling their effortless style into a wardrobe built for the modern man.

Launching on 7 April, the collection keeps things clean and considered. The palette is crisp and classic—white, black, and navy—all shades that play well in any wardrobe and stay firmly within the timeless territory. Think linen suiting, single- and double-breasted, plus a black shawl-lapel dinner jacket that looks every bit as polished as it sounds.

Texture plays a big role here. Lightweight construction and premium fabrics are everywhere, from cotton denim jackets to suede calfskin outerwear and sporty zip-through bombers. Even the knit polos and cardigans feel elevated, made for cooler summer evenings without tipping into anything too casual. The smart-casual balance is spot on: black and white chinos, Panama-shade pleated linen trousers, and Bermuda shorts create a foundation you can build on, whether it's for rooftop drinks or something a little more formal.

Accessories get the same attention to detail. The collection is rounded out with calfskin loafers, leather bags, woven belts, and sneakers, all designed to complement the ready-to-wear pieces. Silk scarves and woven ties add just the right amount of rakish flair without overcomplicating the look.

What MR PORTER and Brunello Cucinelli have done well here is deliver a capsule that feels ready for any occasion on the summer calendar. It's quietly confident menswear: you’ll look put together, but never like you’re trying too hard. In true Italian style, it’s all about natural elegance—the kind that looks best when you barely think about it.

The Cinematic Symphony capsule collection is available exclusively at MR PORTER from 7 April. If you’re looking to elevate your warm-weather wardrobe with pieces that will last long beyond the season, this is one to have on your radar.
