Best in Breed ~ The Tailor of Milan

Wearing a jacket to work every day means constantly being on the lookout for something practical and yet distinctive to update the roster. So I was gratified recently with the discovery of Blazé Milano.

Their bespoke blazers blend contemporary sex appeal with masculine tailoring and are steeped in old world charm. You will appreciate the detailing and will probably want to take up Martini's if you buy one. Luckily next year looks set to include a trip to Milan during spring or summer, so much encouraged, my personal city guide starts now...

1# ...The Perfectly-cut blazer - the Tailor of Milan.

A blazer for every occasion!   MIDNIGHT SMOKING

Three talented friends with a legacy of fashion editing and design, are Blazé,

Delfina Pinardi, Sole Torlonia and Corrada Rodriguez d’Acri shared a love of shiny buttons, sailing and equestrian sports and from there, the rest you could say is now woven into history. Between the three, they handle everything from orders, legal and PR to events, customer care and creative. But they all agree on what makes a great blazer: “Fit, quality of fabrics, the shoulders, buttons and accents.”

Blazé Milano's, bespoke blazers span day to night time effortlessly and pull from Milan’s long history of fine hand-tailoring.

 

Because Blazers can be worn year-round investing in bespoke tailoring, will be well worth it. Lots to look forward to, not the least of which a fitting in Milan and a great story. Each Blazer series bears the name of a vintage sailing boat or a horse that has made history, as a tribute to the great passions of the 3 women: horseback riding and sailing.

The four pockets in the lining are constructed to contain everything that usually goes in a clutch without altering the line of the garment.

 “I like to have a tomboy-ish and, at the same time, feminine fit, whether it’s with blue jeans or with a cocktail dress,” says Rodriguez d’Acri. Torlonia will pair hers with her favorite pair of pajamas while Pinardi teams a jacket with heels and a boyfriend jean or skinny jeans and sneakers — clearly all about balance.
