SUMMER TRENDS EMERGE : In Fabrics, Craftsmanship and Style

A trend emerges for Spring and Summer in custom tailored clothing marked by three notable characteristics:

Innovative and elegant fabrics
Unique craftsmanship
A synthesized blending of classic and casual

Fine Fabrics
High-end Italian mills are showing a delightful assortment of thick pinstripes, herringbone and Prince of Wales plaid weaves for spring and summer to accent the lighter tones and neutral color ranges so popular to coincide with the season's warmer temperatures.

When it comes to classic custom clothing there is simply no hesitancy when selecting elegant blue and grey suits to be cut and tailored from precious wool, wool and silk blends, or wool and mohair blends in solids, subtle patterns, bold or ultra fine pinstriped designs.

Unique Craftsmanship
The European, and more decidedly Italian, influence continues to be prevalent in both fabric choices and in styling and construction details. Your choice of custom tailoring allows your clothes to be cut and shaped for a favorable, comfortable fit and designed with the best of Old-World styling sophistication associated with classic tailoring.

Classic & Casual
There continues to be a synthesized blending of classic traditional tailoring and soft casual elegance. For some tailored looks the silhouette has loosened up, with softer shoulders and more comfortable fits. For others the look is very tailored, but with softer, more relaxed fabrics and textural weaves.

The rising mercury is perfect for key seasonal wardrobe pieces like unlined cotton and linen summer jackets and trousers. The trouser models follow two general lines-- a slimmer flat front style for a youthful, trendier set, and roomier fits with one, two, or more generous pleats for those who prefer comfort.

Breaking up the traditional silhouette is a deconstructed jacket: unlined, or with minimal essential linings, in lightweight linen, and cottons. The color options extend well beyond summer beige to include a rainbow of bright and pastel tones of lavender, pink and silver grey.
