I don't think he will be much missed, except by Kilgour's sales dept. He was always dressed like a douche, with that silly scarf and open shirt. I bet he's the main reason so many film celebs dress like that. Tom Ford dresses the same, but at least he has some chest hair and looks like a man. On the other hand, he may be one of the movers behind bringing more widespread attention to Savile Row.

I really liked Torregrossa's book on Cary Grant, I think he did a fine job, but the only negative was the little bullshit bit from Brandelli. I realize the publishers probably foisted it on him. I think I will glue those pages together, so when flipping through my gaze does not accidently rest on Brandelli's "contribution".

Brandelli killed the Kilgour brand and turned into a crap poseur's label. Good riddance!

I remember someone posted black&white photos of some of these tailoring houses, last year. Where are they? I think they were historical from the 1960s, possibly. It was fun to look at the variations as I recall.
