Doing it the Milan way...
The gentlemen of Isaia at Pitti Uomo!
That shirt is how much!?!?
Just had a gentlemen stop in the store who was admiring the pattern choices of our Isaia and Ermenegildo Zegna shirting fabrics. He was quite excited to see all that we had to offer and began to hoard them into a small pile; that is until he pulled out a price tag. The dialogue that followed is something that happens from time to time at our business.
Registered Tartan
Isaia just released press images for their official registered tartan fabric for Fall/Winter of 2011. Such a cool bordeaux combinations of color that would be great made into a pant to pair with Isaia's navy aqua-cashmere sailor jacket, or for the braver man, a full three piece suit? This is the beauty of custom garments, the world is your oyster.
New York buying trip: Isaia
Such a pleasure to see Victor and talk about the upcoming S/S 2012 season from one of the staff's favorites: Isaia. As always the brand really showed up to the table with a palette as colorful as a gelato vendors choices. Can't believe I have to wait a whole year till my white mohair dinner jacket comes in! Ugh!
Blueberry Suit?
It's finally summer, the cold frozen tundra has melted away to reveal one of nature's great gifts: the blueberry. You could incorporate it into a summer smoothie or maybe one of Grandma's succulent pies; but the folks here at A.K.RIKK'S along with Isaia thought it might be best to use the indigo fruit in say...a suit!
Red Coral
From the uptown Manhattan by the park to the cobblestone streets of Napoli all the way to the doors at A.K.RIKK's; we are proud to have Isaia as a part of our family. Join us this Friday as we welcome Victor deLeon to the store for fittings and a showcase of exclusive fabrics. Cocktail hour starts when you arrive.
Light on White
It's the name of the game for Isaia this Spring/Summer season. Incredibly durable light fabrics in a color range that suggests a laid back vibe with a sophisticated nod to fashion a few decades ago.
Italian Alps
Ran into Ryan this weekend and somehow the conversation stumbled onto an amazing trip he took to the Swiss Alps to ski. I guess he took a wrong turn and ended up in Italy in a small hamlet without a passport and cell phone!
Isaia & Montante Cicli
If you happen to stop by the Napoli Isaia shop next time you find yourself stranded amidst the Italian country-side, you might want to go inside and have a tailor with forty years experience measure you for a new Isaia suit. As you finish your wine and are walking through the shop you will notice a bicycle or two strewn about the place. If you feel the need to ask and have a desire to cruise about the city a "La Dolce Vita", one of the specialists can fit you for a custom bicycle by Milan based Montante Cicli. The unique thing about this bicycle is that it has you, the sartorialist that you are in mind. Not only is the bike customized to your height, weight, and riding ability; you can give it the sense of sprezzatura that you already possess by choosing the (Isaia cloth) fabric for the seat and the handlebars. The bike was designed specifically with the well dressed man in mind with splash guards on the wheels to make sure you are not drenched; it also has a felt covering that encapsulates the gears and chain to ensure no grease streaks your brown suede brogues. The details that can be attended to could fill a book, just know that this is a jewel on two wheels made for the man with the priceless wardrobe.
