Cifonelli jacket in detail

Cifonelli jacket in detail - Permanent Style



Cifonelli of Paris makes some of the most beautiful tailoring I've ever seen. I thought a post, therefore, on the details of a jacket rather than me rambling on about the technical stuff. Above, the broad lapel of the double-breasted, with gorgeous double-sewn lapel buttonhole. Its raised nature make it an impractical thing, but nonetheless beautiful for it.


Why do English patch pockets frequently have so little curve and character?
The signature brown horn button, polished on the rim and matte on the inside
Lapped shoulder (and in the background, back) seam
Label and pocket flap with handsewn buttonhole
Silk lining and handwork around the inbreast pocket
Signature 'C' on the buggy lining, attaching the two sides across the back
Beautifully attached lining panel over inside vent
