Comment on my new leather blazer.

[MilanoStyle]

I have seen a middle aged man who was wearing Leopard patterned Stefano Branchini shoes .. They looked stunning on him but I don' think I could pull it off.

I purchased a luciously soft brown leather blazer from Stefano Ricci and love it. Many women compliment how good it looks and it looks so soft they have to reach out and touch it. Works for me. Give it a try.

Leather Blazer, Stefano Ricci... It just doesn't get any better than that if you are trying to impersonate a mid level Russian Mafioso.

Now I understand the other thread you started better.

Actually, the look above works better than the pictures meant to be commented on. The items go together better, instead of the "trying too hard" impression. Also, despite what people have said about the fit, the "new leather blazer" is too tight.

Perhaps this blazer could be considered a classic Milano style for visiting tourists to the D Squared factory but you will have to check with their tour office to be certain.

If the OP sets on getting a leather blazer, I'd suggest him to return the Paul Smith and get one by Seraphin currently being marked down to $1200 from $3700 at BG. With GST & PST on top of $700, the Seraphin costs only $400 more but it's a much better garment without the ugly mismatched panels exhibited in the Paul Smith.
