A staple in contemporary classic outerwear: a precisely tailored single-breasted coat, cut and stitched from the finest Italian-woven cashmere from the three-century-old Piacenza mill by expert, award-winning tailors in the Molise region of Italy. Sharp notched lapels and a clean silhouette make this piece a winter essential for years to come.
##Handcrafted in Italy
This is the third high-precision atelier we have worked with at Archibald. Our journey with tailoring began in Carrara, followed by an ongoing partnership with Saint Andrea, and now for our third stop, we have landed in Campo Basso with a tailor and atelier with a distinctly different flair. From the eyewear we started with, right through every workshop we have featured, the narrative in each was always proudly stating the years of experience of the artisans or the generational legacy of the business. Experience played a large role in their selection and the confidence we had in the partnership. However, our newest partner hails from much humbler beginnings. Experience is subverted by an obsession, a dream, and remarkable talent, as the craftsman leading this charge was awarded the coveted golden scissors award in Italy. We are excited as we extend the criterion for master craftsmen and embrace genuine talent.
##A coat made of pure cashmere is an enviable wintertime must-have.
Fine, grade A cashmere from the renowned Piacenza cashmere mill is specially selected by our sourcing experts for the classic single-breasted coat. Relying solely on suppliers of the best cashmere ensures the piece is both soft and sturdy, designed to keep the wearer snug through many a hardy winter weather.
##These are investment pieces- the classic that must be precision-tailored and stitched to last for years to come.
It takes an extremely talented artisan to make a coat of the highest echelon. Each swatch is hand-cut and finger stitched with extreme precision in order to drape correctly on the body and flatter the wearer. We’re very lucky to have access to an award-winning tailoring team that specialises in impeccable hand-construction, relying on traditional pad-stitched floating canvas chest bastes and hand-worked pick stitching for an enviable final result.
