I think it's the other way around. Salvatore's dad uses the typical Neapolitan tailor while Kiton is atypical sartoria Napolitana.Originally Posted by iyorito

Ambrosi Senior's jacket is very typical Neapolitan style that you see all over the streets of Naples.

Antonio, Salvatorre's dad, does not wear a typical Neopolitan jacket...like Kiton Salvatorre's dad uses a little known tailor hidden in the dark side of Naples...not Solito and not Rubinacci. Its an old man who likely makes 4 jackets a month. It is a distinct jacket made the way Naples jacket used to be made before the Export Napoli jacket with some of the distinct features that the famous Napoli RTW and some of the bespoke Napoli tailors prepare for their International (not local) clientele. There is no RTW maker who makes such stuff...as it is an old tailor's distinct interpretation of how Napoli style jacket use to look.Originally Posted by Michael Ay329
It looks like it has a rope shoulder. I guess that's a variant. This photos of Vittorio de Sica from the '50s show what I thought was the definitive Neapolitan style. Note the natural shoulders. http://www.thelondonlounge.net/forum...=9188&start=30

This type of shoulders is named as spalla insellata, which is a typical type of shoulder that is used for the suits. Spalla camicia is a more casual type used for casual suits and sportcoats. At least, that is what I am aware of.

Salvatore,
Do you make visits to the UK or do you plan on making visits to the UK any time soon?

That's a roped shoulder. No more, no less. Con rollino.

Salvatore- Any idea when your friend Solito will return to NYC with the jacket I ordered (in your hotel room) and paid him a deposit on 18 months ago?Originally Posted by juuceman
wow. I'm really sad about this. I think you may need to travel to Naples to have a decent shot at getting it. I don't think he is coming back to the States anytime soon.
