@jeeves_ny: This $4000 Loro Piana jacket is a great example of poor product development. @Loro Piana The dark brown / black suede collar bleeds when exposed to water and dry cleaning solvent. So the collar needs to be completely removed before cleaning, then sewn back on after. This means that the client has to pay for the cleaning of their garment, and additional alteration charges. Another problem with removing and resewing is it will cause tons of damage to the fabric at the collar and the suede. Suede is not fabric with threads and needle holes (needling) will appear after every effort. Loro Piana is known for their experience with animal fibers and hides, so I am surprised to see such an obvious issue with this garment. A removable collar would go a very long way here... #loropiana #productdevelopment #productfail #fashionfail #fastfashion #leather #suede #luxury #luxuryclothes #coutureclothing #couturefashion #loropianasuede #fashiondevelopment #clothingdevelopment #explained
feels like the way cars are engineered lately: remove front wheel, bumper, and battery to change the headlight 🤪

it's a $4k jacket. i suspect the person who buys it probably won't wear it enough for it to need a wash or they don't care that it would be difficult to clean or require being removed and sewn back on

Your account has completely changed how I do laundry and I swear my clothes are cleaner and smell better than ever. I think I was using too much detergent before. Ty 🙏🏻

Omg ive been waiting for this. I have a loro sportscoat with suede collar and patch pockets, and none of the dry cleaner will accept to clean it. Cause they afraid the suede will be destroyed and bled

Any recommendations for socks, any price point, mine don't last after a few washes. I'd figure 😅 you might know of some good ones, please.

Poor product development or planned obsolescence!! 🧐

And because it’s leather you could resew it a maximum of one time before needle holes fully perforate the seam line.
