Designer Spotlight: Pierre-Louis Mascia at Riada Concept

Few designers capture colour, print, and craftsmanship quite like Pierre-Louis Mascia.

Known for his unmistakable approach to textile artistry, Pierre-Louis Mascia creates a world where clothing becomes collectible — a blend of Italian heritage production, bold pattern stories, and effortless silhouettes designed to be worn season after season.

At Riada Concept, Pierre-Louis Mascia is one of our most loved designers for clients seeking pieces that feel expressive, elevated, and entirely individual.

Who is Pierre-Louis Mascia?

Pierre-Louis Mascia is a French-born designer who launched his label in collaboration with the historic Italian textile manufacturer Achille Pinto, renowned for its artisanal expertise in fine fabrics and print craftsmanship.

The result is a designer house built on exceptional quality, where every garment is produced with:

• meticulous Italian fabrication

• vibrant, layered prints

• luxurious natural fibres

• a balance of artistry and wearability

Pierre-Louis Mascia pieces are instantly recognisable — maximalist yet refined, bold yet timeless.

Beyond Scarves: A Full Ready-to-Wear Print Universe

While Pierre-Louis Mascia scarves are iconic, the brand’s ready-to-wear collection is where the artistry truly comes alive.

Think fluid wardrobe essentials designed for modern dressing:

Printed Silk Pants

Effortless and elegant, Pierre-Louis Mascia pants offer the ease of loungewear with the polish of luxury tailoring — perfect styled with knitwear, shirting, or tonal separates.

Caftans & Long-Line Silhouettes

Signature Pierre-Louis Mascia caftans and long shirts move beautifully on the body, offering dramatic yet wearable silhouettes that transition seamlessly from day to evening.

Statement Shirts as Outerwear

Many pieces are designed with a long, layered cut — styled like lightweight coats or overshirts, ideal for travel, resort dressing, or elevated everyday wear.

The Icon: Faux Denim Printed on Silk

One of the most distinctive stories in the Pierre-Louis Mascia collection is the label’s trompe-l’œil approach to denim.

Rather than traditional jeans, Mascia creates denim prints on silk — giving the look of worn-in, vintage denim with the weightless luxury of fine fabric.

This faux-denim concept is a signature of the brand:

• relaxed, effortless styling

• unexpected texture and print

• the comfort of silk with the attitude of denim

A true conversation piece, and a Riada favourite.

Silk Care Guide: How to Care for Pierre-Louis Mascia

Many Pierre-Louis Mascia garments are crafted from delicate silk and silk blends. Silk is one of the world’s most luxurious fibres — breathable, luminous, and soft — but it requires thoughtful care.

General Silk Care Tips

• Avoid applying perfume directly onto silk

• Store garments away from direct sunlight

• Keep silk protected from rough jewellery or sharp hardware

• Never tumble dry

• Steam gently rather than ironing aggressively

With proper care, these pieces remain beautiful for years.

How do you wash Pierre-Louis Mascia clothing?

Most Pierre-Louis Mascia silk garments should be professionally dry cleaned. Always refer to the care label, as delicate prints and fibres require specialised treatment.
