2. Eugene did not believe that the sleeves of my double-breasted suit were shirt-set and insisted that the shoulder was padded. He categorized my suit as Roman in style, not Neapolitan. He also seemed to think the extra fabric between the shoulder and chest was a mistake.
He said the same thing to me when I was in there, though my suit was single breasted. He told me as well that it was not soft shouldered, but quite padded, and that if I wanted to understand soft shoulders as a true aficionado would, I should try one of his bespoke suits.
Some beautiful things in there, though.
