Giorgio Armani Loro Piano Storm System
At these prices, don’t call this garment a raincoat. It’s a “storm system”—and it’s designed to survive even Twister in style. Made of a line of speciality Italian cashmeres and wools that have been internally rubberized to make them water- and wind-proof, they’re not only stylish, but will protect you through New England’s fiercest weather. Even at $2,000 to $3,500, they’re snapping them up on Newbury Street.
