Alumo: Swiss Precision in Shirting — Engineered for the Modern Sovereign
In the uppermost echelon of shirting fabrics, there exists a name that whispers quiet power: Alumo. Crafted in Appenzell, Switzerland — far from fashion’s noise, yet at the center of sartorial purity — Alumo fabrics are the embodiment of disciplined luxury, precision, and timeless sophistication.
At Lapels Bespoke, we reserve Alumo for clients who expect the absolute: flawless drape, unyielding structure, and a handfeel softer than silk yet sharper than a signature. These are shirts for the man who arrives in silence — and owns the room without saying a word.
Swiss Made, World Admired: The Alumo Legacy
With roots dating back to 1918, Alumo remains one of the world’s most exclusive cotton shirting mills. While other brands compete on volume, Alumo focuses on purity, rarity, and consistency — producing only 100% two-ply cotton shirting, spun from the world’s finest Egyptian Giza fibers, then woven on high-complexity looms using ultra-fine yarn counts.
This is not mere cloth. This is Swiss textile horology — exacting, refined, and timed to your legacy.
Alumo Collections: For the Elite Few
At Lapels Bespoke, we curate Alumo’s rarest and most technically advanced fabrics, selected for men who walk through boardrooms, embassies, racetracks, and royal receptions with equal command.
Each Alumo fabric is a result of scientific perfection and artisanal patience — produced only in small batches, and subject to over 30 individual inspections before leaving Switzerland.

The Collar-Lapel Synergy: Precision Framing for Power Dressing
Alumo’s resilience and balance make it the ideal partner for our signature lapel-collar harmony.

- Semi-spread collars for subtle European confidence

We sculpt each collar not just for comfort, but to maintain powerful posture and structure, hour after hour, city after city.
