I only own the Bloomingdales version (i.e. not the Lorenzo cut), and one of the reason I didn't go with Lorenzo was because the quarter was way too open for my taste (at least on all the pictures I have seen on NMWA), jacket length did seem short but I think that's more to do with the fact most people who were taking pictures were pretty tall. I had to buy 46S given I am 5'7".

Now can I recommend a few change to the trouser (at least for the Bloomingdales version, no idea if NMWA has same thing). I don't know how you call this overlapping closure thing, I just don't find it functional. Can we do side tab and enclose belt loop if people want to put it on and probably increase the raise a bit, it's not ridiculously low right now, but would prefer a medium raise.

p.s. I am just one data point, so if all your sales data tell you otherwise, feel free to ignore me...

Not everyone is going to like all styles - we have all different taste. I find Lorenzo/Ciro/our model to be the best expression of Antonio's vision and taste, personally. It has beautiful curves, a lot of personality, and great proportions. That vision and this styling is what made me want to carry the brand (and Antonio's passion, of course).

I would second the comment on trouser rise, but I also realize I might be older than the target demographic, which seems to like a slightly lower rise. I am 6'4" and the long jacket is plenty long, the vest however was about 1" short. All small nits.

totally understandable, thus it's just my opinion

As Greg has said elsewhere, the openness of the Lorenzo depends in part on wearer's hips. You can see Murlsquirl's Lorenzo SC more closed in earlier pictures.

Anyway, Greg, looking forward to your fabric choices.

Folks, as Marc does me the favor of answering my queries with pics, I'm posting some FYI. Several coats left including these, navy houndstooth and grey check. I'm holding out for the spring, but I was curious given an earlier post. Please contact Marc if you have queries (his email is somewhere in this thread)









Colors are obviously not coming out, but you get the idea.

Did you happen to see if they are stocking this at Bloomingdales now?


I don't remember seeing anything that light in color, but I can double check next week or you give them a call.

Thanks, yeah I live in the city so I can always head up there. Just figured I'd save myself the trip if they definitely didn't happen. If you happen to remember to check next time you're there, that'd be swell. Thanks again JIMB.

OK, so Marc has given me a large data dump of stuff in the store for SS. FYI, I don't get anything from passing this on beyond the fact that I like the brand and Marc has been very receptive to sending me pics. In return, I post them here as a community service.

I'm not going to post them all, so please, if any questions, email Marc Etlin.

I'll try some outerwear that has come in.

Thanks for posting. I'm trying to get more info from the SA. Some of the suits and SCs seem pretty nice but it's hard to tell ...
