The Rubinacci Thread.

It was chilly this morning and will be tonight. Still a bit nippy. It's a 16oz LL tweed that doesn't wear too hot so it's doable. Per Se tonight should be nice and cool inside I would imagine.

Same here...A Carlo Barbera for Lesser flannel today.

I'm not even wearing pants.

Actually, I just ordered two fresco suits from LH. I seem to have my seasonal ordering pattern screwed up.

Yet cold for any flannel or tweed here - the sun's still strong.
Lucky you!

That coat is really great. Really. Then the part closest to the neck is even more beautiful. Compliments.

Who did hear about that relatively recent, mystical Milanese dinner where Luca supposedly said that he was actually cutting himself (I wonder since they are always pretty transparent on that) and then supposedly got his head washed by Migliarotti (who supposeldy also told the VBC people to **** off at the same occasion; just after he made that film fo them)?
Sounded like fun and much more interesting than the lunches that Scott Schuman was filming...

You should start your own film series...

This is an old idea of mine, so get out you cameras and get going, gentlemen!

So I've made an appointment at Rubinacci in London, on December 11.

I intend to start off with a Suit, or a Sportscoat. Will return to Naples in September for my first fitting.

Thinking either a Navy Blue Wool / Linen Blazer, or a Wool Gunclub Check.

For current Customers, any advice on anything I need to think about before I go in 2 weeks time?

My only experience thus far is with WW Chan, or MTM Orazio Luciano.

And to end the day in style here is another detail that can make a difference ... of course everything always done by hand....

Only to keep your mind open about fabric selection. Who are you meeting with?

I am meeting Chiara.

I intend to have my first fitting in Naples when I return to Europe in September. I hope then that I can see Mariano and the cutter.

I quite like the Porter & Harding Glorious Twelfth Book. I wonder what they will have available.

 

[whnay.]

They have that among others, also ask to see the vintage stuff

OK, great, thanks for that.

Thanks for creating this thread, it has been a wealth of information for us all.
