I don't know but I thought that factory was pretty amazing - wouldn't have thought it was that large.

Yeah, looked really busy too, pretty awesome. I wonder if that jacket they were fitting on him was some type of model to base measurments off of or if it was actually true bespoke they were doing?

edit: Actually i think the interviewer is a member here, oops.

Monty would know...he's had Attolini do both of their individualization approaches, I think.

The overwhelming majority of what they do is RTW and MTM through third party retailers. In the five or so times I've visited their shop in Naples, only once has another customer been there. I would therefore presume that their bespoke volume is small unless they make a lot of private visits to wealthy customers.

Great video though. Thanks for uploading it.


They suck indeed, but it was made for a mainstream luxury lifestyle website which failed in a horrible way. Not really aimed at the SF crowd.

If you've seen the amount of Attolini's sold in Japan, and think about how much stuff they make for branded retailers, you'd think that factory size is completely justifiable.

Thanks for the vid!

I thought Attolini was a very limited suplly per year as Maserati or top exclusively brands.

It lost some of my cache. My mental image was 10 people working on a mediterranean old house,not so industrial.

Edit, I love the interviewer shirt, but seems too bright for 100 cotton. Who´s the maker?

I'd bet good money that the shirt came from the Dutch high end menswear retailer ' Oger' . And I can't remember having seen polyester there. . See also www.oger.nl Kiton, Borrelli and Brioni and Isaia, Caruso, Corneliani, Canali, all produce suits in such a way. Don't believe what the salesman says.

Nice find.

I can really appreciate their intercontinental silhouettes, but the regional stuff not so much.
