There are many high-end designers who produce high-quality clothing and accessories at a high price point. The following list provides information about some of the best high fashion brands in the world and their respective prices so you can decide whether to purchase one of these items for yourself or someone else as a gift!

 

What is the difference between high fashion and normal fashion?

 

High fashion is a term used to describe the top echelon of designer clothing. It is more expensive and exclusive than normal fashion, which refers to clothes that are mass-produced and available at lower price points. High fashion brands often use high-quality fabrics and construction methods, as well as unique designs that set them apart from other clothing.

 

The main difference is in pricing - High fashion is obviously much more expensive than normal fashion. Additionally, high fashion items are often only available for purchase at high-end department stores or online boutiques, while normal fashion can be bought at a variety of places like Walmart or Macy's.

 

However, we at IsuiT - Italian Luxury - believe that high fashion should be able to be enjoyed by all people, and that is why we are so proud of our beautiful collection of high fashion clothes, at prices that are unbeatable.

 

What are some of the best high fashion men's brands in the world?

  1. Zilli

 

Zilli is actually a French brand - but it's considered by most to be half Italian. Most of their products are made in Italy, and a lot of their style is taken from the land of fashion. Known for high-quality business accessories such as briefcaseswallets, and sunglasses.

This trendsetting brand comes from Lyon, France.

 

In 1985, Alain Schimel was born to Oscar and Rose. They established a workshop in the Croix-Rousse district of Lyon and opened several businesses in the city center. His childhood was spent in this world of apparel and couture. However, he chooses to pursue his legal education instead.

 




Alain Schimel rediscovers his family's love for creating clothing. He invests in the workshop of an Italian tailor named Teofilo Zilli, who specializes in leatherwork, to establish Maison ZILLI in Lyon. The luxury leather jacket is created by ZILLI. Alain Schimel's wife and children join him.

 

Since that time, Zilli has been considered by many to be one of the highest quality leatherworkers in the world - and is the very definition of "high fashion"

 





  1. Tom Ford

 

Tom Ford is a legend - as a fashion house, but also as a person. It is a rare feat for a stranger or foreigner (someone who is not from Italy) to be at the forefront of Italian Fashion. But Tom Ford is known not just for being the head of Gucci and steering them into their "golden years" - but he is also known for creating his very own fashion house as well.

 

 

Tom Ford is known by many as a brand for men of power - and their items never disappoint. Made with traditional Sartorial methods, but with a modern 2022 twist -  Tom Ford continues to push the boundaries of fashion further and further.

 

The brand is well-known for many things, but at IsuiT - Italian Luxury - we particularly like Tom Ford's suits and blazers - and their dress shoes. 

 

 

 

  1. Kiton

 

Kiton is one of the father brands of Sartorial fashion. The original idea came from the British - with their baggy suits. Kiton and Cesare Attolini created a whole new style of fashion - The Neapolitan tailoring houses.

This took the idea of the British suit and took as much away as possible. This may seem like a bad thing - but it's known in the suit industry that the less of a suit there is, the better. As the Italians always say "less is more".

 

 

 

How does this work exactly? They make suits that are a much closer fit for their customers - and they also remove the lining and the venting, to leave just a simple piece of beautifully made fabric that will leave you blown away.

 

 

 

Kiton is the definition of high fashion - and IsuiT is proud to offer their pieces at the best possible prices online - Including suits and blazers, and much more!

 

Kiton is also related to Kired - IsuiT and Kired recently teamed up to offer you beautifully-made modern sartorial suits.

 

  1. Cesare Attolini

 

Vincenzo Attolini was the founder of Cesare Attolini - and also is considered by most people to be the founder of Neapolitan fashion. As mentioned previously, the idea behind the Italian suit was to take as much away from a British cut as possible, leaving only the fabric.

This was Vincenzo's original idea - and the exact idea behind this fashion house was to create suits which were "second skins" - that is a piece of fabric that is so close to your actual skin, that it feels like a second skin.

 

 

 

 

A lot of people think that this would give you less space to move around in, but it's actually the opposite. The closer the cut to your skin, the more you can move around (obviously it has to be an exact fit to have the best effects.)

 

 

 

 

Cesare Attolini is one of our favourite brands - and we have a huge range of their suits and blazers (possibly the largest online collection - and at the best possible price!)

 

  1. Brunello Cucinelli

 

Brunello Cucinelli is one of the high-end fashion houses that have really taken on board a lot of "classic" high-end designer fashion.

One reason why this brand has been so popular recently is that they use very high-quality fabrics - and their suits are made with traditional methods, but also modern technology to ensure that high quality is high.

 

 

 

 

When you get your hands on one of their suits or jackets - you will be blown away by the high quality and finishing touches that they have put into each piece to make it high fashion, but also extremely high-end designer fashion!

 

 

 

 

Brunello Cucinelli has a very unique style that mixes traditional Italian tailoring methods with a modern aesthetic - and the end result is high fashion at its finest.

 

We are proud to stock a range of Brunello Cucinelli items here at IsuiT, and we know that you will love them just as much as we do!

 

  1. KNT

 

 

KNT - Which stands for Kiton New Textures - is a branch of Kiton which is more sportive and uses fabrics that Kiton does not use. The end result is a modern twist on an old classic - and their clothing is not only high quality, but you will not find these fabrics in many other companies. 

 

 

 

KNT has a high price tag - but that is because the quality of their fabrics and garments are among some of the best in the world.

 

We love KNT here at IsuiT, and we know you will too! They have classic high-end designer fashion at its finest.

 

Any company associated with Kiton is going to be highly rated in the luxury fashion community.

 

 

  1. Stefano Ricci

 

Stefano Ricci is a high-end fashion brand that uses very high-quality fabrics, and has a classic high-end designer fashion look.

What separates Stefano Ricci from the other brands on this list is their use of gold - which really sets them apart as a high-end luxury brand.

 

They are also known for their use of luxury fabrics such as Crocodile - and are known for being the tailor of Billionaires.

 

 

 

As you can imagine, their suits come with a high price tag - but if you have the money to spend, there is no better high-end luxury fashion brand than Stefano Ricci.

 

We are proud to stock a range of their items here at IsuiT, and we know that you will love them just as much as we do.
