LCdM & GA, 1996. Disco collars.
A little single topic tumblr blog about the dress of male Italian industrialists and intellectuals. And other elegant, quintessentially Italian specimina.
Dear readers, you may have noticed that the updates here are becoming less and less frequent. That is because most of my (photo)blogging is now done over at milstil.tumblr.com, because I think I more or less covered the subject of this blog. Future updates of this blog will mostly consist of the occasional reblog of a milstil post and random stuff that deem I suitable to be posted here. If you have any requests, suggestions, questions etc you can always send me a message. Thank you for your support. Regards, II&IS. • Question? I may or may not provide an answer.

Great summersuits I: Agnelli’s wool ‘solaro’ suit
Because you can never have too much of a good thing - sets of pictures of great summer suits. Most #menswear geeks will already know and love the sometimes-navy-but-more-often-beige-with-reddish-glow wool- because it satisfies all basic requirements of self appointed fine clothing connoisseurs: [x] relatively difficult to procure [x] ‘bespoken’ snob appeal [x] vintage feel or archaic charm [x] Agnelli wore it [x] Agnelli wore it [x] dude, Agnelli wore it. And that is pretty much how the Italian menswear game works Italians (and their tailors) emulate Gianni Agnelli and menswear enthusiasts try to dress like Italian tailors. Pictures via ferrari.com.
Jacopo Morelli - in more detail - note the clean cut chest, no drape! Masculine shoulders - extended and some padding, superb lapels - dude has a great tailor.
