The official thrift/discount store bragging thread - Part II (May 2015 - Sept. 2018)

Is there a name for this fabric/pattern? I picked up a new unhemmed Calvin Klein Collection suit last night from a consignment store.

Okay, bizarre one. I need help!

When I first picked this up, my immediate reaction was "**** YEAH!" Because I was sure I'd just found some Loro Piana or Cucinelli.

A magnificent cashmere vest with a quilted lining and suede trim; who else could it be?

But there are no tags on it, ANYWHERE. No button inscriptions either. The cashmere is superb quality, the styling is amazing and the workmanship is excellent... clearly a grail. But who? :/

Anyone seen one of these before by some strange twist of fate?



















Anyways, it measures around a size 42, in case anyone wants it before the mystery is (hopefully) solved.

 

[dukedishin]

definitely thought that was cucinelli before i even read your post...but no other input.

 

[SomethingsFishy]

Cucinelli is definitely my front runner, but their buttons are typically monogrammed :/

Old Cucinelli, maybe?

Old Cucinelli, maybe?

Are the buttons always monogrammed?

I'd have to check when I get home but I'm fairly certain the Cucinelli I found just has giant MOP or Shell buttons. Anything in the pockets or any care tags anywhere? If not doubt you'll ever find out without the luck of finding an exact copy with the tags still attached lol

Isn't this RL suit the precursor to Purple label?

Yes. I don't believe that it was made to the same high quality as RLPL, but decent, nonetheless.

And those lapels.

It's the same maker as many of the older USA-made Polo pieces. Never heard exactly who the maker was, but they made for Brooks Brothers, too.

Pretty sure it is Norman Hilton
