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.

On Dress Shoes: Oxford, Derby, Loafer, and Double Monk
A suit ends at the ankle, and what is worn below it matters as much as anything above. The dress-shoe vocabulary is small — four forms do almost all the work of the serious wardrobe — but the small vocabulary is precise. Each of the four belongs to a particular kind of dressing, and each is wrong in the contexts the others were built for.
The Overcoat: Chesterfield, Polo, Crombie, and the Long Lineage
An overcoat is the most public garment in a man’s wardrobe. It is worn on the street, into the lobby, across the carpet at every winter event from November to March, and it announces the wearer’s taste before any other piece of clothing he owns. It is also, in the modern wardrobe, the most under-considered. Most men own one overcoat, bought at random, worn until it falls apart, and replaced with another one bought at random. The right overcoat is one of the most consequential purchases a man makes.
On the Lining: Half-Lined, Quarter-Lined, and the Question of Bemberg
The lining of a jacket is the part of the garment the wearer sees most and the buyer thinks about least. It is what touches the shirt, what slides over the shoulders when the jacket goes on, what carries the colour that flashes when the wearer moves. It is also a meaningful structural component of the coat. The choice between full, half, and quarter lining, and the choice between Bemberg, silk, and other fibers, are the choices that determine how a jacket wears across seasons and how long it lasts.
