Review: Every Man Should Own This Book - Remarkably researched look at the history of Italian men's style. The photography is first class. This is a look at the artistic Italian style of men's clothing, the materials used to produce it and the people who put it together. Suits, coats, shoes, shirts, ties, accessories...its all here. I guarantee you'll find many things in the book that you'd run out and buy, if you had the money. There isn't anything in the book I could afford but I'm getting ideas of how to put the Italian look together for myself in a much less expensive manner. Very glad I bought the book and I recommend it to any man who takes style seriously. All that being said, the book would be more aptly titled, "A History of Italian Men's Fashion". I would have preferred more photos of finished suits, jackets, shirts, etc on models, with accompanying descriptions , (you know....fashion), than extreme closeups of wool, wool, wool, the history of wool, the history of sheep, etc. Anyway, great book.
Review: Magnificent exposé with beautiful images and tasteful commentary - The portraits of clothing, models, and tailors provide a wonderful look into the world of Italian fashion. The book has multiple sections on fabric mills, bespoke tailors, brands, shirtmakers, shoes, and more. It’s a hefty hardcover book (over a foot in length as well as height, and more than an inch thick) with plenty of detail to keep a reader interested for a number of afternoons. I bought it due to my emerging interest in men’s fashion, and it provides a great introduction to the sartorial world—particularly in regards to the Italian style. Makes a great coffee table book or gift for an emerging “gentleman.”

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great!

Not exactly what I was expecting, but a great coffee table book. I wish that it would’ve included more and other designers, but it’s still great.
