The CM Graveyard: First Sartoria Partenopea... next J. Crew?

@steveoffice and @mmmargeologist are husbands boys

Great, thank you!

Yeah the shoulders are slightly narrow. I’d say the cut is less forgiving than typical CM suits OTR

more CM not graveyard just general question, anyone tried Natalino's trouser? high rise, tapered (but not stupidly tight), decently priced (~$200 and looks like on sale <$120?), guess Berg&Berg type of level (which I don't own any but seems like quite a few guys like it)?

I enjoy them a lot. I have two pairs of linen, a mid gray flannel and a heavy drill cotton. It fits my body type because they naturally have a little more room in the thigh which I need. Great value, they aren’t up to par with the Rota’s I own but I wouldn’t hesitate to buy more at their price point.

This was linked from the Wash Post article I put up in the Discussions on the fashion Industry Thread:

Exclusive: Neiman Marcus advances bankruptcy preparations - sources

Neiman Marcus Group is stepping up preparations to seek bankruptcy protection, after the coronavirus pandemic forced the debt-laden U.S. luxury department store chain to close its stores, people familiar with the matter said on Thursday.

J Crew will most likely have to file as well. Probably 2 or 3 other chains

I guess it's just the beginning. Wash Post has a piece today on a (very) preliminary assessment that Covid-19 will not be hampered by temperature like the flu usually is. Could be a long summer.

I never understood why people assumed that it would. It did just fine in Singapore and Hong Kong, and they’re not exactly cold, even in January and February.

Will they fold like Barney's or reorganize?
