Individually tailored fashions cater to exacting tastes.

tailored clothing Cesare Attolini By perpetually tweaking the armhole, narrowing the shoulders, and streamlining the construction of the quintessential Neapolitan suit that his father, Vincenzo, invented in the 1930s, master tailor Cesare Attolini proves that it is possible to make a garment fit like a second skin without sacrificing style or comfort in the process.

The Neapolitan tailor’s new, completely unconstructed H model blazer, made with lightweight fabrics such as Sea Island cotton, 10-ounce denim, and 220-gram island cashmere, demonstrates that Attolini can apply his skills just as adroitly to tailored sportswear.

Attolini’s signature detail is an extremely high lapel notch that no machine can duplicate, and although all of his jackets bear this stamp, each is an expression of the man who wears it, not the tailor who made it— an essential quality in bespoke clothing.
