Eidos Napoli

[tricky]

The Lavato sounds interesting. I've always wanted a longer LBM 1911 type jacket.

There was another model that I recently got to wear for a day. No clue what it was called. You can find references in old pics on Antonio's IG. The one I tried was a DB and belted. Had belt loops at the back side seams.

Pic without the belt. It had a "sprezzhook" inside to let you do the Pitti look of the folded right lapel thing haha.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Hubba hubba, nice jacket. Where did you try that beauty, and was there a 50r/40r available?

Lol it belongs to a friend who bought it before even I was really buying Eidos. He let me wear it for a day when we were visiting.

D'oh, what a tease!

so nobody has responded to my super well-researched question about how bloomingdales compares to random other shop... j/k, so after reading through all these fits i still can't figure out which one is this:

as i recently procured this suit on a whim and it fit so well i immediately ordered one of those bloomingdales ones (for a frankly ridiculously low price after the site allowed me to double-up on codes) and an ulster overcoat, neither of which i will see until my next stateside visit in a couple months. hopefully the fit is close, particularly in the shoulder.

on another note, what are people doing about the buttons? the only people in my area who can do buttonholes are bespoke tailors and i've only found one who is willing to do it, but only a few months from now..

what do you mean? Bloomingdales used to carry Tipo (3 roll to 2), now it's all Balthazar (2 button and shorter and slightly narrower lapel), pretty sure everything you see online in Bloomingdales are all Balthazar, though sometimes you can still find Tipo in store (in some discount rack). For buttons, easy, non-working..., I never find much usefulness with working button, the only time I bother with working button is bespoke... or if it's a no charge option for MtM (doesn't happen these days or I don't think)

sorry, i meant which fit is the trunk suit. i did manage to figure out that the bloomingdales is balthazar...

Trunk carries Tenero (they also have Augusto, but that is a completely unstructured shirt-jacket style; I'd be amazed if that was made into a suit)

@NickPollica I'd love to hear your side of the story of this look. Brian Cook might have been the first to do it, but Victor DeLeon (of Cucinelli, dont know if you know him) says that Cookie got it from him after he saw it on a window mannequin in Firenze.

Saw that the reverse sweatshirt is really cheap on bloomies, so feel the need to endorse it. http://www1.bloomingdales.com/shop/...ck-sweatshirt?ID=1632428&CategoryID=#fn=spp=6

Here's a bad pic of it in action a couple weeks ago, bonus pic in the dickie shirt (in Croatia)

Why not one more eidos shot from the trip, linen shirt

I'm looking for a navy Fresco jacket in a 40r. Is this the appropriate place for this? If so, does anyone have a link to one or just have one period?

Thanks
