For years, we’ve heard that tired old adage, “no wearing of white after Labor Day.” Thankfully, times have changed and this boring rule has disappeared.
But, how did it start and why did it last so long? Traditionally, wearing white in the summer was simply a way to keep cool.

Versatility and efficiency- those are the two things we should strive to find every day, especially in our wardrobes. When shopping- especially for basics, you want to pick pieces you can wear over and over again to create completely different outfits, for completely different occasions. That’s why, here at Adea we strive to bring you not only the most versatile and comfortable pieces, but also the most efficient garments, which, with the proper care, you will be able to wear for years to come.

This is what we kept asking when we first arrived in Rome. Everywhere we looked we saw elegantly dressed Italian men with impeccable taste wearing brown shoes. Coming from New York, where every well-dressed male is wearing black, we were taken aback by what we saw.
