The whitewashed masseria walls, the trulli of the Valle d'Itria, the golden sandstone of Lecce — the Puglia landscape is the most naturally white-linen-specific context in Italy. White PP linen against whitewashed walls is the most visually correct choice in the hottest and most southerly region of the peninsula.

For Borgo Egnazia. The Fasano-operated luxury resort near Fasano — the trulli village, the private spa, the most formally observed dinner occasion in Puglia. White PP linen for the hotel pool; a navy PP linen shirt with linen trousers and leather shoes for the Due Camini restaurant evening.

For the trulli of Alberobello. The UNESCO cone-roofed stone houses — the most distinctive architectural vernacular in Italy. A PP linen shirt in white with linen shorts and leather sandals for the trulli village walk.

For the Adriatic coast. The Torre Canne beach, the Polignano a Mare cliff swimming, the Monopoli harbour. White PP linen over natural swim shorts; leather sandals. Natural swim shorts for the Adriatic.

For the Lecce Baroque. The golden sandstone city — the Cathedral, the Basilica di Santa Croce. A PP linen shirt in a warm natural connecting to the Leccese stone, with linen trousers and leather shoes.
