Hello,

I hope all is well.

My question is straight forward:
What is the difference between “Caruso” (the godfather brand of Italian suits) and “Raffaele Caruso Sartoria Parma?”

Is this a sub brand of Caruso?

How does the quality of construction and fabric compare to Caruso?

Thanks a lot.

Caruso construction varies wildly in quality and whether it simply says "Caruso", "Raffaele Caruso" or "Raffaele Caruso Sartoria Parma" makes little to no difference.

The more modern clothing is branded "Caruso", however.

I don't like the Sartoria Parma since many are in 3 buttons and are boxy and long.
