Brioni’s Newest Suit Silhouette

Brioni

This season Brioni, the ultimate Roman tailor, introduces a new suit silhouette called NM Colosseo, named of course after the Coliseum. Think of Rome in the Sixties…Fellini…Cinecittá…men in trim suits zipping around on Vespas. Colosseo, a Neiman Marcus exclusive, is a hybrid of the older models Parlamento and Secolo. The jacket is on the shorter side, with a higher waist and a narrower lapel with a higher notch. It gives modern expression to the notion of a “power suit.” (In the Eighties, exaggerated dimensions signaled power. Today, impeccable fit does.) The corresponding Phi trouser has a flat front and a narrower leg. In sum, Colosseo is an essential addition to a youthful gentleman’s wardrobe.
