One of their Icon pieces is the Roadster Jacket, which was designed for driving and is dedicated to speed, elegance, and performance. The jacket first launched back in 2004 in celebration of the 75th anniversary of the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa D’Este. In honor of its 20th anniversary, the piece has been reimagined in a special edition for the I.C.E. St. Moritz. Fifty pieces of the revamped Roadster will be exclusively available only at the Loro Piana St. Moritz store while the winners of the 2024 International Concours of Elegance will all receive an exclusive navy blue Roadster, which happens to be the official color of The I.C.E. St. Moritz, to wear during the prize ceremony.

A Buggati Bescia T23 from 1925 will sit on display in the Loro Piana lounge customized in the Maison’s fabric, the same used to produce the limited edition Roadster jacket. The boutique will transport its guests to a luxury winter escape with one of the windows showcasing a miniature winter landscape inspired by the prestigious event, celebrating the automotive show. Miniature collectible cars, some handmade, racing in the snow-covered mountains, surrounded by trees and skiers give off the contemporary allure of the lifestyle event for the guests.
