Another treasure from the vault (the vault in this case being the dank and not entirely weatherproof storage room under my house). I thought my wife had already thrown this back into the lake, but I'm glad she didn't. This is an old bespoke jacket from Angelo Litrico, a Roman tailor who I believe was somehow involved in the early days of Brioni. The jacket is nice enough--unvented and very simply cut with moderate lapels, no lapel buttonhole, and very nice smoked mop buttons. But the real star here is obviously the cloth, a wonderful red/black/gray herringbone from W. Bill. Perhaps not the best choice for someone with fair hair and skin, but possibly a truly inspired choice for someone with a darker complexion. As Glenn O'Brien would say, let your freak flag fly!
