Taking cues from films like Brideshead Revisited and Maurice, this season’s Louis W. for A.P.C. collection looks to the sports culture of English private schools. The result, “Club Kids Society,” refers to both sporting clubs and nightclubs alike and features designs like the baseball-like dark navy satin Tim bomber, stonewashed denim Walter, plaid-patterned Lawrence and striped wool Brett. Alongside the jackets are knitwear pieces like a cricket-inspired crew neck cable.
Shot here by Bruno Staub in upstate New York and modeled by Devon Mastro, A.P.C.’s Louis Wong-designed pieces are available in stores and online now with prices ranging from $340 to $1,835 USD.
Caruso is an Italian menswear manufacturer which emblematises the traditions and principles of quality, handmade tailoring. Originally established by Raffaele Caruso, upon his move from Naples to Soragna in 1958, the small, family run tailoring shop came to exist in several different incarnations across the decades, eventually growing to become one of Europe’s biggest and most advanced menswear producers by the early 2000s.
Having come under the guidance of fashion world entrepreneur Umberto Angeloni, Caruso took the form it takes today, and has continued to go from strength to strength. It achieves this because of its unwavering commitment to fabrics and construction methods of the highest calibre: the principles which have garnered Caruso its fine reputation since the beginning.
Crucially, Caruso takes the utmost pride in the fact that all of its garments are handmade in Italy, a narrative which they claim is one part romantic, one part technical. The idea that a piece is made in Italy undoubtedly conjures evocative imagery, and perhaps even makes something all the more covetable. But the technical part of the narrative ensures that this extra desirability is not for any shallow reasons, but rather because Caruso always produces superior garments.
GDM team had the opportunity to visit Caruso headquarters in Soragna Italy and to see up-close the journey of making menswear for real gentlemen. It was a lifetime experience for us and we wanted to share it with you ladies & gentlemen. Take a look of the photos below and live the Caruso experience yourself.
