Panicale clothing: a family story from Umbria

Panicale Cashmere is an Italian family business with roots in the region around Perugia. The story began in 1964, when Mario Panicale and his wife Soliera founded their first craft workshop in Pila. Soliera specialized in knitwear, while Mario used his organizational talent to expand the company. Together they worked for leading Italian fashion houses and refined their knowledge of high-quality knitwear.

In 1978, Panicale introduced the first collection under its own name. The women's line followed in 2011 and gave a new interpretation to the technical knowledge of the house. The third generation is now at the helm. The identity remains connected to family, craftsmanship and production in the Umbrian area.

Cashmere and Italian knitwear with a soft look

Panicale is strongly associated with cashmere and luxurious knitwear. The collection may also contain wool, cotton, silk and carefully composed fibre mixes. The precise choice of materials varies per item. Therefore, always check the product page for composition, thickness and maintenance.

Good knitwear is about more than softness. The thread tension, finishing of the neck, shoulder line and border determine how a sweater falls and how long it will remain beautiful. Panical clothing combines this technical attention with calm colours and wearable shapes. This means that a sweater fits with smart trousers as well as with denim or a dress.

How does Panicale women's clothing fit?

The fit varies per model. A fine-knit sweater can follow the body line, while a coarser or airier design is deliberately looser. Pay attention to shoulder line, chest width, sleeve volume and total length. An oversized model should have space, but should not completely hide the silhouette.

Use the size information with the product and compare with a sweater that fits you well. If you are in doubt between two sizes, consider how you want to wear the piece. Extra space can be nice for layers. At Artson Fashion we are happy to help you with personal size advice.

How to combine Panicale clothing

Wear a soft Panicale sweater with straight women's trousers for a calm, elegant look. A shorter model works nicely over high waist pants or dress. Fine knitwear fits under a blazer, while a looser knit is strong as a top layer.

Care of Panicale cashmere

Air cashmere after wearing and wash only when necessary. Always follow the label. Use a suitable wool programme or hand wash with a mild wool detergent, without wringing. Let the garment dry flat and store it folded. Slight pilling can occur from fine natural fibres due to friction and can be carefully removed with a suitable cashmere comb.
