Webinar Series: The Culture of Textiles

Written by

We’re excited to kick off a new monthly webinar series just for J.Hilburn Stylists: The Culture of Textiles.

Brought to us by Chief Creative Officer Simon Kneen, this series is led by Mariangela Rossetto—an industry expert with over 30 years of experience, including 20 years at Loro Piana. Mariangela will share the rich story behind the fabrics we work with, from the origins of wool to the beauty and craftsmanship woven into every garment.

This journey will lead us to in-person fabric workshops with Mariangela at the Conference in July, where Simon and his team will unveil the Fall 2025 collection.
