I’ve always loved the Caruso tagline, “In menswear, do as the Italians do”. (In fact, being Italian American myself, I think the saying should simply read, “Do As the Italians Do”-but of course I am clearly biased). However, no one can deny that when it comes to fashion and style, the Italians, indeed do it well. Caruso is clearly no exception. Their luxury menswear has been a staple to Italians for many years, and will soon be accessible to New York, as they are opening a flagship in New Year in early 2015.
The focus of their collections is the suit. The most elegant of all pieces, they have many different takes on the suit, also creating items to supplement it like accessories, shirts, hats, belts, and sportswear. The SS15 inspiration was the man himself, strong, sometimes rough, and filled with light. Blues and beiges dominate the line, and soft, loose shapes give a relaxed and manly feel.
BDMOTP favorite: the shirt with the Anchor print, and every. single. suit.
