It’s given you so much: vodka sauce, Sophia Loren, your villa on Lake Como...
And apparently, it’s also home to some decent tailors.
Like the ones behind Piombo, a smart line of blazers and suits making its way to US shores,
available online now.
Imagine every dapper old Italian man you’ve ever seen, then add about 10% more color to his clothes,
and you’ll have this. Piombo’s been outfitting the gentlemen of Milan for years, so they’ve had plenty
of time to perfect their continental swagger before making the transatlantic leap. (Your suits could always
use more swagger.)
The suits are every bit as sharp as you’d expect, as are extra touches like the thin orange scarves
just begging to be tucked rakishly into your collar. (Yes, we think it’s time you embraced the
ascot.)
And if, sometime in the next month, you find yourself entertaining a group of Florentine financiers
through an evening of grappa-assisted business negotiations, you’ll have the perfect electric-blue blazer
for the occasion.
Nothing seals the deal like an electric-blue blazer.
