PAULA STYLE

The label lists the fibres but rarely explains them. Here is what merino, EcoVero, Microjersey, and the rest mean for how a garment feels, performs, and ages.

Decades of selective breeding, a particular climate, and a farming culture that values quality. What New Zealand merino is, and what its certifications actually verify.

A plain look at Roma Ponte, the structured stretch knit behind the Roma pieces, what it does well, and how the pants, leggings, and jean are cut from it.
