    Cashmere Sweater Hierarchy

    There are a lot of brands that source Vicuna for garments. However, there may be a limited number of mills that can source the raw material. Maybe more rare is Guanaco fabric, while maybe not as expensive as Vicuna.

    Looks like Loro Piana is facing some unsavory accusations of exploiting Peruvian workers. (NY Times)

    Sartoriale = Official Affiliate Vendor thread

    Agreed. The cuts look great. Thanks for the additional information on construction. Taking the example of this nice DB LP fabric suit, the pants look narrow, but not excessively so. There are no other pants measurements on your site other than waist. Would be nice to know the drop. Reviewing...

    Sartoriale = Official Affiliate Vendor thread

    I had not known until I received an email from Sartoriale @MarkWinter that it seems Maruo Blasi has brought Sartoria Partenopea back? Are suits/sport coats fully canvassed like the original line?

    Timeless/old money Three Piece suit

    Agree here in large part. The Parisian Gentleman (Hugo Jacomet and Sonya Glyn) have a great segment on their Sartorial Talks: "What is Old Money Style". It's all about not standing out. "Norm Core" is a great moniker explained in the video segment. Nothing with logos, too flashy, and most...

    guide to touching up your suit without wrecking it

    There is also this segment from the Armoury. The lapel pressing starts at about 13:30, but the jacket used in this demo looks to already have a good lapel roll. Would still appreciate any expert feedback on this from maybe @jefferyd

    I don't think I received responses here, but found this on Youtube of Ciardi restoring a collar roll.

    Scent/Fragrance of the Day thread

    You can order samples of pretty much everything Luckyscent stocks, but it will cost you. Also can try The Perfumed Court that stocks a good number of vintage/out of production scents.

    Scent/Fragrance of the Day thread

    I first tried it about 5 years ago and it was way too powdery for me. Just came across a sample vial I've had since then and I sprayed it the other day. It definitely has lost some intensity and the powderiness has calmed down. Still, there are other vintage masculines that are higher on my...

    Not here really. Might want to try Basenotes, or just sell on Ebay.

    The Official Bontoni Appreciation Thread

    Very nice. While always a failsafe option, I've always thought of black shoes a somewhat boring option, except for when a level of formality calls for it. That burgundy museum medallion toe is sweet.

    Agreed. However, the OP did not pose the question if $600 in alterations made sense for a $1K garment.

    Scent/Fragrance of the Day thread

    I wholeheartedly agree that a linear fragrance is not always a bad thing, especially if one finds the accord really appealing. I didn't intend to imply that linearity is always a problem nor an outright strike against a fragrance - and certainly not with a medium that is so highly subjective and...

    Scent/Fragrance of the Day thread

    Those that I've sampled from the house have been somewhat linear IMHO. Was not inspired to purchase any full bottles.
