I have no clue is subs are available, so I'll provide a transcript:
D'Angelo, the diabolical tailor from Milan, is always up to something. Do you see this suit? It looks normal, right? You'd be wrong. It's a collapsible, convertible and exchangeable suit. An ingenious fly system allows you to apply the lapels that less capricious tailors would have sewn using traditional methods. Customer satisfaction is indescribable, only pictures can express it fully. But it's not over yet, D'Angelo is studying a system to remove turn ups, trousers and the jacket itself, so that the client may then go to another tailor to get a proper suit.
 
Romano Montroni. I adore the rust tweed jacket, to say nothing of the combination with the turtleneck. . .

It was the only sarto aproved ever blog.

What happened to him?

My guess: he tried the dark side and did a shill blog as the rest.
 
viaattovannucci viaattovannucci the problem is, as usual, my huge size. 50r (not euro, 50 inch). None to be found for now... but I'm cofident either one will pop up some day or I'll shed the pounds again in the meantime...

The sons still support the same cut, which I love as a whole in terms of its proportions and thus the general silhouette. The II&IS tumblr is full of photos of Aldo, Ugo, and Fernando.

I’m not necessarily hot on the lapels per se. But if you can embrace a certain stylistic quirk as father and son, or otherwise intergenerationally, that deserves major props IMHO.

Horses for courses. YMMV.

NVM.

That tumblr is epic and so is the cut of the suits.

While the 70s are as bad as we remember it, especially in Italy and the UK, it was the last decade where if you had money and success you were light years ahead in terms of exotic travel compared to the herd, but those lapels are not part of the Roger Moore and Robert Redford end of the equation.

They're deviant for all the wrong reasons.
