The guy looks a bit like M. Rubinacci with a hangover.

His unflattering haircut, fortunately, detracts from his ill-fitting jacket.

Marzullo is from Campania. Wearing an authentic garment from his region seems fitting (no pun intended).

In contrast, I find the desire of certain foreigners to wear something "Neapolitan", which isn't the genuine article in the first place, odd.

If you want to wear a Neapolitan jacket, show that you have the cojones, and wear the real thing.

Looks like a "real" piece of crap.

Not necessarily; if the "Neapolitan" tailors are producing a product for foreign consumption, what's the problem?

I dont' know what they wear in Campagnia, but it really doesn't fit. I would imagine it's off the rack, despite the working sleeve buttons and the pick stitching. You see stuff like this all over the world now. I still think he could be M. Rubinacci on a bad day.

Don't know. They make my court dress not my suits.
