In the early 1990s, Pierluigi Boglioli joined the family business and introduced the brand's signature jacket, a deconstructed cashmere jacket with a vintage feel, characterised by its washed-out colors obtained through the garment-dying process. The name of this technique comes from the particular way in which the dye is added to the garment only after it has been stitched, a completely innovative and unique method unseen before in the industry. The success in the Italian market pushed Boglioli to expand worldwide to such countries as the United States, Canada, Japan, and Russia. In 2013, Pierluigi and Mario Boglioli sold Boglioli to a private equity group. During the 2010s, Boglioli expanded from tailoring to global fashion and branding, and hired
