Stile Latino Fall '16

Vincenzo Attolini, grandfather of the Vincenzo Attolini who founded Stile Latino, is credited with ushering in the distinctive style of modern Neapolitan suits and jackets—soft unstructured shoulders, unlined or minimally lined body, trim fit and easygoing air.

Fedeli's Verso Cashmere Sweaters

It’s no wonder half-zip sweaters are some of our most popular knitted pieces. What’s better than a thick, warm, luxuriantly soft wool or cashmere sweater on a crisp fall day or a cold winter evening by the fire? Sweaters are so enjoyable to wear, and they simply exude classic fall and winter style. Half-zip sweaters in particular have an extremely versatile look. They dress up nicely with a dress shirt or even a sport coat for a formal look with a slight edge, while the collar makes for a more ‘finished’ look than a crewneck when worn casually with a t-shirt (also it’s nice to have some extra warmth on the neck on cold days!).

Or rather he had several things in mind, and one goal—giving form to the swarm of creative visions in his head. The way he tells it, he landed on silversmithing as his medium simply because it was accessible. His family has worked in the trade for generations, so he had access to the tools and materials of a silversmith. Simple as that.
