you are entitled to your opinion, but you just rephrased exactly what I said.

Why can't I like something just because I happen to like it? Everything is not a debate..........I'd like that coat if it was from Old Navy!

Point taken.
I guess it is the instance of mutual misunderstanding. Now I understand that it is the design that appeal to you.

I really like Isaia and own many pieces. It will be interesting to see what the new items actually look like that make it into the local stores.

I agree. Sadly, the local stores in the Bay Area, NM and Saks, have buyers whose taste
I do not generally appreciate. My Isaias come from elsewhere and are neither short nor tight.
They are also several years old.

Seems like the theme for this collection is greenish-blue, which is pretty much my least favorite color. Two thumbs down.

Love the blue on blue chalkstripes with... is that a super-subtle bellbottom?

You can't find most of the stuff in stores anyway. They produce according to the preferences of different stores. Here, most Isaia stuff they have for the current season are the basics: slid gray suits, solid navy suits and blazers.

Not even in the Isaia stores themselves?

Canali in Australia mostly means racks of Charcoal grey work suits. Its only the in the Canali stores themselves do you actually find colourful sports jackets, double breasted suits, linen suits etc.

I only saw an Isaia store in Milano. Their selection there was even worse than what you can find in big department stores.
