The SF answer is: Doesnt matter, go to Naples for bespoke.
They go from 299 to almost 500€ for the most expensive fabrics . Please take into account that this is the pricing at trunkshows in Germany, prices may differ depending on what the retailers charge in different regions.
Directly at the Finamore factory I heard of something like 240€ IIRC.

yeah, i figure. i know the shirt makes up for some kind of a raw 70s euro look perhaps. ive seen some old films where some chinese women in rome were wearing shirts like this and it looked pretty sharp (or at least the look came back sharp). i like bold colors like this and would love to pull the look off.
