C.P. Company x Alessi

C.P. Company has teamed with Italian design house Alessi to rework Alessi classics and unveil a joint collection at Milan Design Week 2026. (wallpaper.com) The collaboration was presented inside an installation called "BLEND: The Kinetic Pulse of Italian Industrial Mastery" at C.P. Company's Milan showroom, Via G. Fiamma 18, running 21–25 April 2026. (cpcompany.com) On the apparel side the project includes a Nylon B overshirt produced by C.P. Company in three exclusive colourways—Total Eclipse, Malachite Green and Deep Lavender—made from brushed multifilament, military‑inspired nylon and garment‑dyed for a lived‑in finish.

(cpcompany.com) Both firms framed the project around the idea of the factory as a cultural engine: Alessi referenced its Officina in Omegna while C.P. Company highlighted its Bolognese textile research and garment‑dyeing heritage. (fashionotography.com) Those ties reflect long histories: Alessi was founded in Omegna in 1921 and has a century of collaborations with architects and designers, while C.P. Company was launched by Massimo Osti in Bologna in 1971 and is known for fabric innovation.
