Kiton
The Italian luxury label Kiton was founded in Naples in 1968 by Ciro Paone, who came from a long legacy of fabric makers. Kiton is known for its luxurious men's suiting, jackets and accessories. The name Kiton comes from the Greek word "chiton," which describes a tunic worn by ancient Greek aristocrats. Kiton helped define the modern vision of Italian suiting, distinguishing the region's bespoke offerings from those of London's Savile Row. Kiton's suits are known for their unlined, unstructured, and unpadded forms, best suited for humid hot Italian summers.
To this day, the Kiton name defines contemporary luxurious suiting, with ties and pocket squares made of sumptuous luxurious silks that pair perfectly with a Kiton suit. The storied Italian house also creates luxury accessories such as eyewear glasses and glove scarves. A Kiton suit is synonymous with global luxury and sustained elegance.
