Bespoke 2011 Cifonelli Blue Wool Trousers - W36​​/​​46 Excellent Condition RARE offres

Cifonelli is an institution in the world of bespoke tailoring. Famous for their unique shoulder​​​,​​​ their attention to details and their blend of Italian and French tailoring traditions​​​,​​​ Cifonelli is recognised around the world for both their bespoke and ready-to-wear work.

Founded in 1880 by Giuseppe Cifonelli in Rome. His son Arturo (probably one of the best bespoke tailor and cutter of the century after working with London tailors)​​​,​​​ decided to move to France in 1926. Ten years later​​​,​​​ Arturo moved to its current location: 31 Rue Marbeuf​​​,​​​ close to the Champs-Elysées. His work became legendary and Cifonelli became a reference among tailors​​​,​​​ and for gentlemen around the world (his clients included actors such as Lino Ventura​​​,​​​ Cary Grant and Fred Astaire).

His son Adriano took over in 1972​​​,​​​ and Cifonelli grew even bigger​​​,​​​ thanks to several high-profile clients (notably the french president​​​,​​​ François Mitterrand​​​,​​​ as well as several ministers and opposition leaders).

Since the 2000s​​​,​​​ the house is managed by Lorenzo and Massimo Cifonelli​​​,​​​ the fourth-generation of Cifonelli. The company expanded. It merged with other skillful tailors (Claude Rousseau​​​,​​​ Gabriel Gonzalez​​​,​​​ both having worked for Camps de Luca) in the 2000s​​​,​​​ and the cousins were responsible for the bespoke offer of Hermès from 1992 to 2007.

They also started making ready-to-wear suits​​​,​​​ as an entry point into their bespoke​​​,​​​ working with the best manufacturers (Brioni and Caruso notably)​​​,​​​ with great success.
