To celebrate the opening of it’s first Design Center outside of Italy, GianLuigi and Alberto Candiani welcomed some of the LA denim industry’s most influential names for food, drink, dancing, and a first look at the new facility. DTLA restaurant Terroni served a delicious offering of Italian food alongside drinks of Negronis, Aperol Spritzs and Prosecco, whilst DJ Chris Garcia provided the music for the night. Guests also had the chance to see Candiani’s lazer machine in action, by having wording of their choice lazered onto a Candiani Denim apron to take home with them. The Design Center’s Chemical Bar, and various laundry machines provided visual focal points throughout the space.

Candiani’s fabrics are currently used by the majority of the iconic LA-based denim brands, as they pioneered the creation of premium denim fabrics. Of the opening of the LA Design Center, Alberto Candiani, Global Manager of Candiani Denim commented: “We are thrilled to be opening our first ever Candiani Denim Design Center outside of our home in Italy. The premium denim history has a huge heritage in LA, that Candiani fabrics have always been a part of. The opening of the Design Center allows us to support the industry even more closely, and help to maintain LA’s status as a leader in the global denim market.”
