Never heard of them before, but I love the wild reinterpretations of classic styles. They seem to have injected a mixture of SoCal chicano and blaxploitation. I'd expect to see them worn in a reboot of Breaking Bad or a Tarantino film set in modern L.A. Fun stuff for sure. Pricey and I can't gauge the quality but it's interesting even if most of it wouldn't work on me.View attachment 569182 View attachment 569183 View attachment 569184

I use to wear Etro shirts when they my work required wearing least semi-formal button up shirts, by coincidence a friend was actually a textile designer for the company, which must have been a sweet job as they had such a creative remit. I still have a few in the closet, thanks for the reminder to pull them out and see if they haven't dated overmuch. I've been to a few of their flagship boutiques, in London and I think Milan IIRC, they were drop dead gorgeous shops staffed with impossibly beautiful women.yeah some of it is a little flashy but it also seems like all their stuff is hand-made one-offs. One of my favorite brands is this Italian company Etro because they combine a very classic feel with some really wild details. Like a conservative blue suit whose lining is pink paisley that you can only see when you take it off. This stuff reminds me of that![]()
