Agreeable Menswear Post Of The Day

[aristoi bcn]

I've found in a Japanese blog the only picture I could find of the cut of the tailor J.M.Blasi, one of the few left in my city, Barcelona.

The cut is different from what I've seen from Italy, France or UK.

At least the armholes don't reach the pockets, that automatically makes it better than other spanish badspoke...

Those Il Micio look sharp.

Hmmm, the shoes are my least favourite part of the get-up - apart from the monogram of course.

YMMV!

Once spotted micio guy in a cafe ON florence.
He had a huge hunchback and was very very slim.

If he posted those on a #menswear forum today everyone would say jackets too big

So much to learn...

When you have that chin, there are no rules.

Not even a rule. Those jackets look manly, elegant, well cut. No one would look bad in them!

Is it some kind of fish?

Is it some kind of fish?

Apparently. Perhaps it doesn't belong, properly, to the Mediterranean.

What about the Atlantic?

On this side of it, at least, my kin has it as a staple on the diet.

Your new jackets are a little baggy around the upper chest and arms. Il Vecchio's fit is perfect though.

All a bit Donald Trump Junior for my tastes.

And no spalla camicia.

And no spalla camicia.

The cut looks from the shilled Gheyanni one right?, but as only the good part is seen, looks good.

Spalla camicia is overrated

I mean, it's fine, but it doesn't flatter everyone and lots of iGents don't seem to care...

 

[TheUntermensch]

Spalla camicia is as spalla camicia does. I don't think it has its place in business attire. But that's just me.

Shall we lay bets on the next iGent fashion cycle? Because the TuttoNapoli-unstructured-turn-ups-spallawotsit-floppy-tie craze is bound to blow over at some point.

Which reminds me of the time Hardy Amies prediced the Suit Of The Future. It was the early 1960s. So his predictions looked like silly caricatures of the Beatles at their silliest: drainpipe trousers tucked into Chelsea boots (!), button stance six inches above the breastbone, jacket that's practically bumfreezer, and a tiny bowtie to top it all off. I'll post the picture in the disagreeable thread if I find it.

The shoulder seems more or less natural and not pagoda (could be due to stance), doesn't Pirozzi cut a pagoda shoulder?

holy fuck. poor dude has serious forward shoulders. sure coat can't be straightened that much (he'd need like an inch and half of allowance under the collar)

 

[TheUntermensch]

I think there's a lesson here for the rest of us, and I shall quote Bernhard Roetzel (yes, I know you chaps don't like him). "Don't expect a bespoke suit to fit like a glove. Only a glove fits like a glove."

Pirozzi will get you whatever you like best (that's including his own opinion, of course)

Yes, but it fits.

He has recently reviewed (and shilled) for some tailors and shoemakers from Milan. Alò and Tommasso, Sartoria Ricciardi, Giacoppelli...all humble artisans trying to step up their game, maybe scammed by Gianni Cacarruti.

It fits, and rather well, but doesn't look like that tailor knows how to flatter his form

A little shoulder extension wouldn't hurt, his head looks huge oval and he looks potbellied in that giacca

although I'm sure it's mostly Gianni's fault

Buttoning point too high and if the lapel doesn't roll to the bottom it makes no sense to undo the top.

Don’t like the way the pinstripe angle on the lapels is at odds with the angle of the lapel edge
