Re: Neapolitan Shoulder

Thanks Marc!  Do any of the high-end commerial makers do a good job of it?  Kiton, Borrelli etc?

Re: Neapolitan Shoulder

Thanks.  You are a great resource, and correct that fit should come first...and last.

Re: Neapolitan Shoulder

Marc, I have one last question on this subject.  Is the quality of Kiton and Borrelli still very good, or has it slipped?

Re: Neapolitan Shoulder

The Neapolitan Shoulder essay reads like it was taken directly from a
     textbook, such as the overly stiff and technical language and the diagrams,
     in my opinion.  A major tailor in Italy who is versed in the Neapolitan
     shoulder told me that the spalla camicia is pretty much just a "gimmick"
     and so all of the gushing over it is from a group of people who really don't
     know very much about tailoring, though they try hard to seem sophisticated.
      Very amusing, actually.

Re: Neapolitan Shoulder

I have been searching for info on other matters, but I have only run across this in Manton's stuff.
