Are you trying to hone your own haughty gaze?

Mariano loves to sale , that's not a lie...He is a shrewd operator , nothing wrong with that.

I thought it wasn't so much the shrewdness or business acumen as much as the colossal Rubinacci advertizing budget.

I thought about 90% of what you pay goes toward advertizing.

Also, I've read he has this ancient panpipe...from the days when the Greeks owned the bay...and when he blows into it,

, whnay., Poo, and the others go into a River Dance.

Are these rumors unfounded?

This is a picture taken during an event organized in Naples by the Cavalleresco Ordine dei Guardiani delle Noveporte. In this picture Mariano Rubinacci was trying a vest made for the tight of the wedding ceremony of the daughter. It's really important to know the source of images to understand well. http://www.noveporte.it/taccuino/tau...&idcategoria=1

Interesting. Do expand on that please.

I do learn something new everyday on Styleforum.

Tepdoc, who lives right above the Rubinacci flagship store at the Carlyle, is the expert on it.

Perhaps he will weigh in.

Thank you...I thought it had to be a lark. The senior Rubinacci is nearly always well turned out.

This page is losing its comic impulse.

There is still room for a few more posts, however.

I once owned a Rubinacci jacket that I almost burned inside of a BBQ. I believe sho'nuff has it now.

Was it being worn by a Berkshire pig?

I realize it's not actually a berkshire, but I had to combine tasty meat with a pig/hog in a jacket/vest.

I-gent special. Drapers five star 11 oz fresco. 6x2 DB, patch pockets, light horn buttons, half-lined with tie silk. I have pants in the same fabric from Ambrosi if I wanted to wear as a suit.

Saw this in person and it's definitely more impressive than pictures. The light horn looks great. I totally want to jack the idea and replace my gold blazer buttons with light horn now.
