Fall / Winter Fabrics from Caccioppoli

We just received the latest Fall / Winter fabric offerings from one of our favorite mills in Naples, Caccioppoli. This season brings flannel suitings, heavier wools, donegals, tweeds, corduroy, cashmere and various coat and overcoat fabrics. There are way too many to post and too many that we like and we are sure you will too. With the weather here in San Francisco and across the US getting cooler, now is the time to start building your Fall wardrobe or get that outfit for the holidays or special occasion.

Flannel for Fall

It may be Indian Summer here in San Francisco but we’re warming up to the Fall season with this light brown suit in a Super 120’s flannel wool by Vitale Barberis Canonico
The light beige or you could call it Oatmeal has a nice light texture and nap to it.
At only 270 gr it is the perfect weight for the Bay Area and a Fall wedding. Just giving it the right amount of warmth and texture without making the wearer too hot .

Dan and Randall produced the song “I Punched Keanu Reeves” together for the movie performed by the band Hello Peril.
This beautiful tuxedo is fabric from Caccioppoli’s Special Events book and features a subtle floral pattern. Wrapped in blue satin trim on the lapel, pocket jetting and buttons.
Note the slightly roped shoulder. The roping adds just the right amount of formality to the jacket.

Nehru Suit

The Nehru jacket is a hip-length tailored coat with a mandarin collar, and with its front modelled on the Indian achkan or sherwani, a garment worn by Jawaharlal Nehru, the Prime Minister of India from 1947 to 1964.
This one seen here is a Black wool in Super 130’s cloth.
Mao style shirt and suit collar
Side tab adjusters on the trouser
The inspiration, I think we nailed it.
