The Sartorialist

That’s downtown? Where? It looks
like Central Park East…
Great look on Domenico, by the way.

In Holland we would say this guy looks very ‘gelikt’ (smooth).

He needs a little twist, I think.

Great over all look though

Casual perfection.

I’m somewhat disturbed by the shoes. Very sleek, but they don’t seem to work. Spectators would’ve been better.

I would have liked a contrast between the suit color and shoes, perhaps a navy blue pair?

but I think I like it otherwise.
Although, I have a hard time with that color. It works; I know. Nonetheless, I’m hesistant to say it’s ever quite right.

this style it’s remember to the sytle of my parent to go to work ath the 70′s , when i was a baby…the brown colour and the slimmer of the size…don’t you think about the seventies when you look at it???

Like this a lot–particularly the color. To be picky, the jacket, and particularly the sleeves seem a mite too slim; I keep going back and forth on the shirt sleeves which seem not be buttoned.

On the one hand, they provide a casual follow-through to the open-necked shirt; on the other…well, they seem a bit floppy.

(Also would do a different shoe color–though I have no idea at the moment what that might be.)

The caramel cowboy. Vacca’s masterful sense of color shown in full effect here, with a degree of coordination between suit and shoes that is sublime yet vaguely unsettling. Beautiful, contemporary menswear that strikes a fine balance between classical and avant-garde.

great suit & smile~~!!

ok i know that right now you’re in ny but yesterday i was shopping in a hat shop on melrose blvd in los angeles and there was a man there that looked just like you. I had to do a double take but i realized it wasn’t you because he was holding no camera. plus im on your site religiously and i know where you are. by the way, I was just recently introduced your site a couple weeks ago and I love it. Its so full of inspiration for me because currently im a fashion student at otis college of art and design. Thank you for the wonderful work you do =)

classicly handsome pose – he’s a natural!

A while ago I was standing at a shop window looking at some linen clothes. A woman walked by with her friends and said: “Linen is really terrible, it’s always wrinkly!” I just had a big ? in my head, just stopping myself from asking her: “So what, isn’t that what linen is supposed to do?! Isn’t that the beauty of it?!” Well, I just wanted to say, that while I can see that it can be difficult for some people to carry it off with elegance, I also really love the texture of linen and it is a pleasure to see it work so well on this gentleman.

Those shoes are working in his favour. Perfect size and cut, almost doesn´t look like linen.

I love this photo – the colours (his and nature’s!) go beautifully together. I like the suit but what draws me most is his air of easy self-confidence. I like!

NOTHING beats a man in a linen suit. Very classy. Very sexy.

he is the master “the maestro”of Italian sartorial clothing. Love the cut and the fabric. I met Mr. Vacca and his dedication to top quality in everything he does blew my mind. If you can guys check his stores. Also i was very impressed by his woman collection. Nobody does an hand made woman collection in the market today like DV. Great shot Sartorialist.

Are those cuffs on his trousers?

Thank you for showing a linen suit. I just had one made-to-measure in a dark brown the salesman was second guessing my choice in linen but I siad I would take the blame if it was to ‘wrinkley’. I’m glad I stuck to my guns. Now I need to get shoes and your picture again helped me feel better about my choice.

The color looks great on him. I rarely see men wearing pastel but this is totally wearable.

I could see spectators with this, but I also like how these shoes blend in. I’m having a hard time picturing any other shade of brown that wouldn’t stick out.

How about an ascot? For the day in a light shade and with spectators it would make it look quite jaunty, and if in the evening in a darker shade with shoes to complement (not spectators) it would dress it up a bit. Just a thought.
