Ratti for Herno Life

The new Herno Relife project, is a collaboration between Ratti and Herno and is based on the shared values of craftsmanship, uniqueness, circularity and heritage. Together we breathed new life into 18 iconic patterns from Herno’s past collections, revisiting them through one of our most valuable and distinctive techniques: textile printing with planche. Each planche helped create “placed” prints that ensure the exact repetition of the design on each garment, while maintaining the individuality of each piece due to the manual nature of the process. Ten designs were selected from our archive of more than 5,000 planches. 250 exclusive pieces were relabeled from the men’s and women’s lines, which will be available in Herno monobrand stores in Milan, Paris and Tokyo During the week of March 22-31, communication of the
