The Bold Elegance of VBC's Patterned Fabrics
The bold patterns available in their collection are suited for those who seek to curate a wardrobe that is as expressive as it is elegant.
In a world where fashion is a form of expression, the fabrics you choose are the words with which you articulate your style. Vitale Barberis Canonico (VBC), with its storied history and dedication to excellence, offers a selection of fabrics that speak volumes. Among these, the bold patterns stand out as a statement for those who dare to be distinctive.
The Power of Patterns
Patterns in suiting are about more than just aesthetics; they're a conversation starter, a mark of the connoisseur. VBC's range of bold patterns—be it the classic houndstooth, the understated glen check, or the more dynamic windowpane—reflect a modern approach to traditional sophistication.
1. Houndstooth: A Timeless Statement
The houndstooth pattern is a testament to classic design, featuring a duo-tone tessellation that is both dynamic and distinguished. The complexity of this pattern is a fitting metaphor for the modern man: multifaceted and unafraid to stand out. VBC's houndstooth fabric is perfect for a custom suit that will never go unnoticed.
2. Glen Check: Understated Complexity
Glen check, with its subtle intersecting lines creating boxes of varying sizes, offers a sense of depth and intricacy. This pattern is ideal for those who appreciate a garment that reveals more upon closer inspection. VBC's glen check speaks to a nuanced style, one that pairs well with the confidence of a tailored fit.
3. Gray with Small Stripe: Classic with a Twist
The gray fabric with a small stripe pattern is a classic choice that carries a twist of individuality. This fabric choice is for those who value the traditional gray suit but desire a touch of personality. The small stripes add a visual texture that elevates the fabric from ordinary to exceptional, making it a sophisticated option for a custom suit that is both versatile and unique.
Vitale Barberis Canonico's patterned fabrics are more than just materials; they are the canvas on which your style narrative is drawn. The bold patterns available in their collection are suited for those who seek to curate a wardrobe that is as expressive as it is elegant. With VBC, you choose more than a fabric—you choose a legacy of distinction that is woven into every thread.

The Black Suit: Considered Beyond Funerals
The black suit has a complicated reputation in contemporary menswear. For decades, it was the suit a man owned for funerals — a single piece in the closet that came out only for sad occasions and was otherwise treated as too somber for ordinary wear. The recommendation in most menswear writing is to skip the black suit entirely and choose a charcoal or navy as the foundational dark suit.
The Showroom in Beverly Hills: Rodeo Drive
Our Beverly Hills showroom sits on South Rodeo Drive, in a building whose neighbors include the most established luxury houses in American retail. The choice of address was deliberate. A custom tailoring house that operates in Los Angeles needs to be where the city's most discerning clients already shop, and Rodeo Drive remains the address that gathers those clients in one block.
The Trousers: Pleats, Cuffs, and the Quiet Detail
Trousers are the half of a suit that men think about least and that, in fact, do the most invisible work. A jacket can be slightly imperfect and still photograph well. Trousers cannot. The lines of the trousers — how they break, how they hang, where they fall on the shoe, whether they pull or pool — are visible from every angle and across every motion. The trousers are the foundation, and they deserve more attention than they typically receive.
