Young, Black, and Freeish! Juneteenth 1865 T-Shirt

- June 18, 2021

Throughout the Young, Black, and Freeish! Juneteenth 1865 T-Shirt in other words I will buy this years, the Sersales have made slight interventions to keep up with the times—the building of an onsite spa, retiling the floors with hand-painted squares from Fornace De Martino, swapping out the Frette linens. Never has that meant closing the doors of Le Sirenuse in high season, but this spring owners Carla and Antonio Sersale did just that. In early 2020, the world watched in horror as Italy fell helpless to the coronavirus, a warning sign of what was coming for the rest of the world. The country’s airtight lockdown (Italy was the first to implement a nationwide restriction against all non-essential travel) lowered infection rates, and come summer Italians were able to roam—albeit with caution and face masks—a little more freely. Le Sirenuse remained closed for four of its seven operating months. The unplanned time off gave Carla a rare moment to spend time with her family and finish a project that was years in the making—her line of glassware, which launches today on MatchesFashion.com.
