Chamomile tea and sailor hats: watch the making of Lili Curia's Canvas Collection

Lili Curia's nautical-inspired limited Canvas collection is crafted from deadstock Italian canvas steeped in chamomile tea

Inside an Italian warehouse in Prato, metres of deadstock canvas was steeped in litres of chamomile tea to create the Canvas collection, a Limited Series revisiting Lili Curia's design signatures through material treatment and expressive details.

The process of chamomile dyeing introduces natural variation and softness, reinforcing a sense of time and process. Like the people we design for, who instinctively mix and match their wardrobe, each finish is unique, carrying its own charm.

The Canvas collection references vintage nautical dress, express through navy ribbon striping on the beloved Isadora boot, while the Victorian kitten heel retains its signature leather lacing in ivory, providing a slight contract that accentuates the tone and quality of the canvas.

Alongside the footwear offering, the capsule includes a limited collaboration with Robyn Salt of Salt Hats, who used offcuts from the same canvas to create four sailor hats for a playful nod to the nautical influence.

The Limited Series: Canvas was conceived as a small, intimate study, exploring a tactile approach to craft.
