DIX/DIECI

Some aphorisms on style and ten articles on fabrics for masculine elegance.

In the panorama of men's fashion, the Classic occupies an exceptional place - perhaps because, precisely, it is not about fashion, but about style. From ready-to-wear to the tailor's boutique, the modern man who still loves to dress in a suit and tie chooses ready-made suits, or fabrics with which he will have suits made by an expert craftsman. Industrial made-to-measure is just one of the hundred facets of this world, made by lovers of luxury, beauty, and aesthetic rigor. In this book, Fratelli MdC proposes a manifesto of industrial made-to-measure, a way of looking at our wardrobe that is more artistic and different, convinced that it is the man who makes the clothes - and not the other way around. And yes, machines are our friends.

Following are ten chapters dedicated to ten pillars, ten iconic and timeless fabrics, protagonists of ten little fables for today's man. Brilliantly told, it almost seems like you can stroke them, reading about their qualities and characteristics.
