Just got this today Sartoria Partenopea neapolitan shirt. Only the armhole is handsewn. I suspect SP shirt are done by Barba, as this one has the exact same collar and the fabric has the same touch as one Barba I own. But also could be by Finamore, the new Eduardo collar. I still got none to compare. Uploaded with ImageShack.us

That's funny as I never liked red garments. I avoid them, do also look bad on a pale guy as me. But it came more burgundy/pink than pure red. So I am happy.

Nicely shaped collar Spalla. I also like butcher stripes in red; I reserve pencil and business stripes for white or blue shirt fabrics.

Fabric on both shirts is Riva. Merolla also included additional cloth for future replacement of cuffs and/or collar.

Thanks for the compliments folks. That above is an smussato cuff. My favorite one, I hate the rounded one.
