EssenziaEveryday elegance
ESSENZIA is our entry premium line, and the starting point of everything Piacemolto stands for. It was made for anyone who refuses to choose between a shirt you can wear every day and the pleasure of wearing one that has been thought through in every detail.
Every ESSENZIA shirt is the result of tailoring know-how distilled into one thing: a shirt that feels better to wear.
What makes your shirt one of a kind
Where it starts. Quality.
For Essenzia we select 100% two-ply cotton fabrics — 100% Cotton · 2-Ply — chosen for the balance they strike between comfort, versatility and refinement. A quality foundation for your made-to-measure shirt, cut and sewn with the care of Italian manufacturing.
Single-needle French seam
What makes a shirt is often what you do not see at first. We use the single-needle French seam: an old, painstaking technique that gives the shirt remarkable strength and a flawless finish. The result is a shirt that ages well and looks as clean on the inside as it does on the outside.
The split yoke
So that the shirt follows your body rather than fighting it, the yoke — the panel across the shoulders — is cut in two pieces instead of one. This tailoring choice lets the shirt follow the natural slope of your shoulders, removing the pull you feel at the end of a long day.
Rotated sleeve
How you carry yourself is what we are after. The sleeve is set with a deliberate forward pitch, following the position your arms naturally rest in. It is a technical detail that removes the pulling across the back and keeps the shirt looking right however you move.
Horizontal bottom buttonhole
A small piece of thinking that changes how you live in the shirt. The bottom buttonhole, the one at the waist, is sewn horizontally. It lets the fabric give with your body when you sit down, preventing the gaping between buttons and keeping the shirt looking tidy all day.
Shank-sewn buttons
This is function before looks. Each button is not sewn flat against the cloth but raised on a small shank of thread. That spacer lets the button sit slightly proud: the shirt fastens more easily and sits flatter, because the cloth is no longer pressed by a flush button. It is the detail you feel every morning without ever naming it.
Trocas mother-of-pearl buttons
You can read the quality of a shirt in the light of its smallest parts. For ESSENZIA we chose Trocas mother-of-pearl, a natural material valued for its brightness, the depth of its lustre and its natural hardness. A quiet detail, but one that tells you what kind of shirt you are holding.
