You have got to admire a man who has an unshakeable vision and spends many years perfecting his craft to make life just that little bit better. His shirts aren't outrageously priced either. Good article.....it warms the heart.

Interesting that, according to the article, MS, an Italian, had been hired to make shirts for London's venerable Washington Tremlett firm, which apparently is still going strong today...

Very nice shirts Marc, I find the buttoning on the neck band interesting...

Re: Mimmo Siviglia: The Making Of A Maestro
Marc, thanks for posting those articles I hadn't seen before. Good to know that old material has just been found 
.... I've been helping with the scanning of photos and articles and I am not even done with the file I started working on (I saw many others). Hopefully soon we will make all the material available online.
I should probably consolidate all pics I've posted of the Maestro's work into this thread...
