Pitti Uomo 89 – day 2.

nicola_09Flag_of_the_United_Kingdom Hello everyone, today I want to show you some shots taken during the 2nd day of Pitti Uomo 89.

For the occasion, I decided to take a very classic look, wearing a double-breasted suit made by Sartoria Sodano.
The fabric used is a 140’s of Holland & Sherry, as regards the trouser:  has a single pleat per side -very long and deep- and America pockets.

The jacket: double-breasted with two buttons, lined, has a wide lapels, boat-shaped breast pocket and 2 welt pockets; the shoulder has no padding and is slightly “wrinkled” as the Neapolitan tradition. The edges of the jacket are stitched, painstakingly, hand made. 

The Shirt: (http://nicolaradano.com/2015/12/28/vanacore-napoli-bespoke-shirt-with-canclini-fabric/), Vanacore -bespoke-  with 9 hand made steps and the fabric used is a  Canclini “Rotschield 200/2” 

The tie, silk, 7 folds, also is bespoke from Marzullo tie factory. 

I hope you all enjoy my colour combinations, and have a wonderful day. Nicola.

Pitti Uomo 89, day 1.

nicola_01Flag_of_the_United_Kingdom Hello guys, as every year I took part in the winter edition of Pitti Immagine. This year was the 89th and it was presented the collections of the upcoming A/W 2017.

The turnout was great, between buyers, bloggers and exhibitors from around the world.

For this occasion I decided to take on a classic look, but with sporty touches wearing: a jacket 3 buttons stretch to 2 with Vitale Barberis Canonico Fabric,  patch pockets, single button on the wrist and Neapolitan shoulder. Denim shirt with a medium washing  and the silk tie was unlined. The pant has a double pleats one of which is turned over and welt pockets. The shoe, a typical English brogues in polished leather.

I hope you enjoyed it all, see you soon; Nicola.
