Sublimely Stylish

The barchetta pocket (small boat shaped) on the chest allowing the pocket square to show more.

True buttonholes with overlapping buttons.

The « pignata » patch pockets on the sides, curved at the bottom, borrowing the shape of a Brandy glass.

The generous, gently rounded lapels with a unique roll.

The « fake three buttons »: 2 functional buttons and the third designed to give structure to the jacket and a better lapel roll.

The double basting stitch on the sleeves (doppia impuntura).

Con rollino: the shoulder head is slightly raised and emphasised by the surplus fabric gathered in the armhole.

Spalla camicia: the shirt-shoulder characterised by a natural drape following the body, absolute freedom of arm movement and visible pleats at the shoulder head.

Lining extending to knee level to support the outer fabric and let it slide easily when seated.

Fully canvased waistband, like on a suit, with horsehair canvas for optimal hold. It is split at the back to improve comfort, refine the cut and prevent tears.

The side buttoning (optional) that allows the waist to be adjusted and brings a unique sartorial touch to the trousers.

Belt loops sewn inside the waistband and also secured with hand-sewn bar tacks. For braces enthusiasts, six inner buttons can be added (on both sides, front and centre back) to attach them.

The under-waistband strap (« Tirapancia / Pancierina ») that ensures a perfect hold of the front of the trousers, giving a sculpting effect thanks to an inner button strap. Depending on whether the trousers are zipped or buttoned, one or the other technique is applied.

Hand-folded collar that gives structure without looking rigid.

Hand-sewn offset armhole, allowing comfort to be optimised for each person through flexible adjustments.

The hand-sewn quarter shoulder for perfect comfort. It’s a meticulous assembly operation of the shirt parts where particular care is taken to ensure pattern continuity (for striped or checked shirts).

Hand-made buttonholes that resist wear caused by buttons while keeping the suppleness needed to open the shirt easily.

Buttons in genuine Australian mother-of-pearl sewn with the old lily-stitch technique – called zampa di gallina (chicken foot), making the buttonhole easier to open and ensuring greater strength of the button stitching.

The shirt placket sewn entirely by hand. This very particular, sublime stitching is part of the signature of a hand-made shirt.

The « mouche » or « swallow », a small piece of fabric hand-sewn on the side seams of the shirt. A meticulous detail that reinforces the shirt and helps it last over time.

The travetto (a sort of hand-made embroidery with a hook stitch) that ends the sleeve placket at the gauntlet. A detail of extreme refinement.
