It’s Always Burberry Weather: Cliffs of Moher in Love…

Fashion Outfit Post

My dear fashionistas, welcome to the fifth fashion story in a series of posts from Ireland on the Mr.M blog. This February will be dedicated to this unusual country in the heart of Western Europe, a country known for its greenest landscapes, St. Patrick’s Day, music, the famous Irish whiskey, but also for its extremely high quality wool. At the very beginning of today’s fashion story about Burberry, an iconic luxury British fashion house, I would like to thank the Enterprise Ireland team for the warm invitation to the 50th anniversary of the three-day Irish trade show Showcase Ireland and for making the collaboration with Irish fashion brands that you had opportunity to see in fashion stories from Ireland.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Black Tie Chauffeur, a Dublin company that provides exclusive luxury chauffeured passenger services. This company enabled me to visit the Cliffs of Moher, which are among the most beautiful and impressive natural sights in Ireland. In the previous post, you had the opportunity to familiarise yourself with their service in a detailed travelogue dedicated to the Cliffs of Moher – LINK.

With the selfless help of all the mentioned partners, fashion stories and travelogues from Ireland were created, which you will have the opportunity to read this February, and I sincerely hope that you will enjoy the new adventure. Today I will continue story about one interesting luxury leather goods brand that caught my attention during the Showcase Ireland trade show – George Horn.

If by any chance you missed reading the previous travelogue post about Showcase Ireland or you want to remind yourself of some interesting things, take the opportunity to visit the following LINK.

All the people who have been following my blog for years know that I have a great love for Burberry trench-coats and coats, honestly I don’t even know how many of their fashion pieces I own anymore, but I know that this is my favorite trench and the color that I always like to wear – the color of honey. Soft pastel golden camel color that blends very easily with other colors. In today’s fashion story, I will show you a new fashion piece in my wardrobe: a heritage Burberry Gabardine Trench Coat that has been redesigned for the needs of the new SS25 collection.

Burberry trenchcoats and coats represent the pinnacle of world fashion and have become indispensable fashion classics today. These coats were created by the founder of the Burberry company, Thomas Burberry, more than 100 years ago, inspired by the British heritage, and at the same time introduced elements of urban fashion.

You can find all classic Burberry coats in 5 basic models: Legendary Kensington, Westminster, Chelsea, Waterloo and Pimlico. All models are named after London districts. What is the difference between these models?

The Kensington – a classic model with a modern cut that easily adapts to any silhouette. The most popular model, which is available in four basic colors: gray, navy, honey color (camel) and black. Also, this model is made in two lengths. The coat you see on me today is this model.

The Westminster – a model that is extended (oversized) and lightly cut for a draped silhouette. Basic colors: honey color (camel) and dark green (khaki). Also, this model is made in two lengths.

The Chelsea – a model characterized by a slim fit (narrow form close to the body) with narrow shoulders and a cut waist. The basic colors are honey and taupe and it is also available in two lengths.

The Waterloo – A more comfortable fit, a longer model than the classic with a subtle and relaxed fit that is ideal for layering. This model is usually made in three basic colors: maroon, black and honey-camel and is available in only one length.

The Pimlico, a simple flat cut decorated with a single-row fastening of a minimalistic character and a modern cut. This model is usually made in navy, biscuit (biscuit color) and honey color – camel. This model is also only available in one classic length.

I would like to note that all the listed colors are only classics that are always produced, but the Burberry company introduces seasonal colors to enrich its offer.

Most Burberry coats have been hand-crafted in Castleford, Yorkshire for over 50 years from gabardine – a revolutionary fabric that Thomas Burberry proudly introduced in 1879. Polished, light and practical, beautiful cotton resistant to all kinds of weather conditions that remains at the heart of the Burberry brand to this day. The classic coat model originated and developed from the basic form of the Tielocken coat, which was patented in 1912 by Thomas Burberry. A simple but refined unique shape that has been adapted over the years and has become a recognizable Burberry coat.

Each Burberry coat is special and has its own story – one that is made to last and write new pages of life’s chapters together with you. Buying a Burberry trench or coat is an investment, it is a fashion piece that can really be worn nicely and for a long time with proper maintenance and it is a thing you can leave for generations to come. I inherited my first Burberry coat from my grandfather and today I keep it carefully and wear it on special occasions because it has a special sentimental value for me.

When the time comes to buy a Burberry trench, it’s a big deal and especially if you are buying a coat for the first time it is very important to buy a “iconic” piece that you can combine with your items from your wardrobe and it is best to buy a coat in your favorite color, without blindly following trends.

To the readers of the Mr.M blog, I have become a recognisable symbol of autumn and spring precisely because of the Burberry trench coats and I have received numerous questions about the advice for smart purchase of a Burberry coat. I have tried to highlight important questions and provide you with adequate answers that can help you during your purchase. All answers represent my personal opinion and certain observations, so don’t generalize things, take this as buying advice.

What are the basic colors you should think about when buying a Burberry trench or coat? There is no universal answer to this question, but I will share with you my opinion and some of my colleagues and fashion experts with whom I like to exchange opinions. I think that for a start, there are 3 colors by which the Burberry trench or coat is recognizable, and they are: Beige (washed stone color), Camel (honey color) and Black color.

These three colors are some fashion statement basics, but as I said it all depends on the taste of the owner of the new Burberry trench, maybe that customer thinks that the basic colors in the palette are: red, purple and olive green. Therefore, a person will decide to buy a coat in one of those colors, which Burberry has in its seasonal offer.

Is the length of the coat crucial when making a purchase decision? Of course! I always try to advise people to buy iconic items in classic cuts and lengths and not to blindly follow trends. Trends are changing, one season there are modern coats of casual cuts with puff sleeves quite long length to the ground, after two months or a year later another trend comes. My most honest advice is to buy a coat of length that suits your body constitution in proportion to your own height. Burberry trench coats exist in several lengths and I am sure you can always find the ideal coat for yourself.

Once again, is it worth investing money in a honey trench coat? If you are a fan of camel color and have a lot of things in pastel or neutral colors, then I think you know the right answer. If you feel some kind of insecurity while trying on a camel coat and reconsider your decision several times, I think it’s best to try another color. When you buy an expensive item like a Burberry coat it is something that must be accompanied by a feeling of fulfillment and security.

The trench coat or a coat are pieces that are worn over other pieces of clothing, so it is best to look at your favorite pieces of clothing and shoes before buying and judge for yourself which are the two or three colors that might come into consideration when buying a coat. Camel color is a neutral color and blends with other colors with great ease, but each of us knows our wardrobe best and you may find the ideal solution since buying a Burberry coat is a real investment.

Is it worth investing money in a Burberry Trench coat? A Trench Coat is always a unique piece and if I personally would invest in my first capital piece, it would certainly be a cashmere coat or trench coat. A Trench Coat is an interesting investment if you already have several wool coats or cashmere coats in your wardrobe, and in some way you want to refresh your outfits a little sometimes. To summarise, if you are building your wardrobe and investing in statement fashion pieces, my sincere recommendation is to first buy cashmere coats and good leather and other kind of jackets, but if you already own these statement pieces in your wardrobe, a trench coat is an interesting fashion piece that will refresh your outfits for sure.

Did we fit in nicely at the end? Honestly, I believe we are. After so many years of loyalty to this British brand and because of my personal interest, I have learned a lot about their offer and I am lucky to always be able to show my favorite pieces from the fashion house Burberry on my blog.

The next brand that I want to introduce to you is one of the representatives of luxury Irish leather goods with a long tradition and rich history – George Horn. As a big fan of luxury and high-quality leather goods, at Showcase Ireland I had the honor of meeting Mr. Gerard Horn, manager of the George Horn brand that produces luxury leather gloves.

George Horn is a third generation glove maker based in Dublin. Founded by George in the 1940s and continued by his son Brian, the company is now run by Brian and his son Gerard. With a passion for quality, authenticity and respect for their craft and artistry, George Horn produce the finest hand-stitched gloves available on the Irish market.

After 77 years of craft, expertise, excitement, many successes and failures, and the hard work of 3 generations of one family, the continuation of George Horn not only sees the survival of the last master glove maker in Ireland, but also heralds a new era of those learning the trade. George Horn is also engaged in the training and education of leather artisans and glove makers to ensure that these age-old skills are preserved in a sustainable and sustainable way.

What is the story of this family brand? During the 1960s, the George Horn Company prospered and gained a reputation for the highest quality gloves. Sales reached across the globe from Japan to the US and included household names such as Harrods and Christian Dior. George Horn gloves have enjoyed a reputation at Bloomingdales, Saks of Fifth Avenue and Roots in New York for the highest standard of materials and quality in the manufacture of gloves from motorcycle gloves to Irish Army service gloves and other models. Mr. George expanded the Ashtown factory and the company’s success seemed boundless.

A little later, in 1972, a fire destroyed the Ashtown premises, destroying much of the old machinery. Unable to obtain spare machines that he felt were up to the appropriate standards, George ceased making gloves. Business continued as the Castleknock Glove Company produced industrial gloves, specialty gloves and small series such as gloves for Irish Army officers, and also began supplying leather to the craft market. George’s son, Brian, became involved in the company in the 1960s, initially selling in Ireland and then around the world, then learning the trade of a master glove maker from his father. To this day, it is Brian who cuts the gloves and oversees the sewing and finishing of all George Horn gloves.

After a fire in 1972, the company moved to Prussia Street, trading as The Castleknock Glove Company, but the collapse of Irish manufacturing and the era of mass importation saw the business close in 2003. A switch to supplying leather and tools began and Brian kept his glove manufacturing on a small scale to order for the next 15 years.

After the closure of the glove manufacturer in the UK, Brian secured old machinery, knives and equipment to match that originally lost in the 1972 fire. While some would argue that modern machines can do the job, for Brian it just wasn’t right and finding the right equipment provided the impetus and motivation to begin a two-year process of testing, tuning and refining until 2020, the year that marked the turning point and of the beautiful moment of the rebirth of the George Hornglove brand.

In today’s post you have the opportunity to see the masterpiece of the George Horn brand, men’s hand-stitched gloves made of Peccary’s leather and lined with pure cashmere. Experience the height of luxury with these George Horn handmade leather peccary gloves. Peccary, the world’s most exclusive glove leather, is prized for its unparalleled softness, durability and natural grain. These gloves are a testament to the skill and expertise of George Horn’s skilled cutters and makers, demanding the highest level of craftsmanship in every detail.

Completely hand-stitched, these gloves exude elegance and refinement. “Greek Dots” – slightly raised, meticulously stitched lines on the back – add a prominent and textured finish, fusing tradition with unique craftsmanship. Inside, the gloves are lined with 100% pure cashmere, providing unparalleled warmth and a soft feel against the skin. These gloves are designed to complement any outfit while providing exceptional comfort while embodying timeless sophistication and elegance.

Today’s fashion adventure we will continue with old friends, I’m sure you remember the brand Aida Barni, which is synonymous with the perfect softness and refined Italian processing of cashmere. Last season we enjoyed the beauty of bright colors, while this year I decided to paint cold winter days with some warm pastel colors. Soft, light and warm cashmere items are also a good investment and practical gift during the fall-winter. When you give someone a cashmere sweater, it is a gift from the heart, because a cashmere sweater carries a certain symbolism with it.

Aida Barni is a brand that belongs to the Annapurna group. Founded in 1978, the Annapurna Group has become one of the leading Italian and world manufacturers of high-quality cashmere knitwear with its two fashion lines, Annapurna and Aida Barni.

Annapurna uses all the latest production techniques available on the market, from cotton looms to the latest and most advanced knitwear machines of all sizes. The current production capacity is about 120,000 pieces per year. It is important to note that the entire production cycle is performed in Italy, more precisely in the factory of the company located in the city of Prato, which is also the center of the province of the same name located in the heart of Italy – Tuscany.

“Made in Italy” is more than a production concept, but this brand has proven to be much more than the perfect cashmere sweater on a store shelf. It is love at first touch, an impression to remember.

Annapurna is a name that evokes everyone with exceptional mountain landscapes, especially the mountain range in the Himalayas where goats live with their winter fleece, hiding the soft, warm “cloak” that made them so famous.

Aida Barni is an iconic and fascinating name for a fashion line that produces high quality knitwear from the finest cashmere. Aida Barni is a symbol of a goal for a woman who decided to enter the world of business in the late seventies and reach the very top of this challenging and one of the most difficult sectors of the market.

The Aida Barni brand was created as an artistic expression of the way of life and existence, the essence of unstressed chic, refined luxury. A collection for men and women dedicated to everyone who loves timeless and elegant knitwear that encompasses true elegance in the preciousness of materials, shapes and details.

The man who wears Aida Barni knitwear does not follow trends, but creates and adapts to the needs of everyday life. The men’s collection is made up of cult clothing items of sentimental value, which evoke a healthy and environmentally friendly way of life. Customers of the Aida Barni brand love natural and fine yarns, enjoy comfort, but do not give up the elegance and sophistication of cuts and models.

Aida Barni concept of men’s “sports elegance” is simple and with style, but rich in materials and inconspicuous details that make this brand cult because it represents an expression of uniqueness and special class.

The turtleneck sweater with zipper you see in today’s post is from the latest Aida Barni FW24/25 collection, a wonderful orange colour and is made of pure cashmere. Refreshing colour for the new season!

You can buy Aida Barni cashmere items in multi-brand stores and department stores across Europe and the world and through authorized online stores. When you give someone an Aida Barni piece, it is more than respect and love because you are giving a piece in which love and deep respect for art that is not worshiped every day is woven.

For all Aida Barni fans in Germany, I have discovered two men’s spots where you can find and enjoy in the beauty of Aida Barni incredible knitwear: Braun Hamburg and Mientus retail stores.

If you want to stay tuned and find out all the news that Aida Barni is preparing for us this fashion season, follow them on the social networks Facebook and Instagram.

Loro Piana is an Italian company specialised in clothing and textile products. This fashion house is considered the largest producer of cashmere and also the world’s largest artisanal company processing the luxury fiber.

The Loro Piana company has three divisions (textile divisions): a division that deals with the production of high-quality materials using precious fibers such as cashmere and baby cashmere, vicuna, linen and merino wool, a division that deals with the creation of luxury fashion items(production and distribution of men’s, women’s clothing, footwear and fashion accessories) and the interior design department – production and distribution of interior design products.

Made from 100% cashmere, these camel trousers is perfect for the man who pays attention to details and leaves nothing to chance.

This elegant cashmere trousers in camel color is perfect for all occasions and extremely easy to match with other colors. If you want to stay updated and find out which pieces the Loro Piana brand has in its offer, visit their official online store and follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

We end today’s fashion adventure with old well-known friends of the Mr.M blog – Fratelli Rossetti. This Italian footwear brand that I’m sure everyone recognises for their comfortable shoes that are made from the highest quality materials Fratelli Rossetti footwear is fantastic for the reason that this brand makes classic shoes that are elegant and simply unbeatable, shoes for all time! You had the chance to see their most famous model, the Brera, in my Jordan fashion stories as well as in many other fashion stories on the Mr.M blog over the past years.

What is the story of this brand? In the middle of the 20th century, more precisely in 1945, Mr. Renzo Rossetti started his story from scratch, where he worked alone to cut leather for several types of sports shoes. His shoes were sold at the famous Brigatti store in Milan, one of the few remaining stores of its kind in the city. After a few years, Fratelli Rossetti saw success, but, wanting to develop further, they transferred the brands and equipment for this special production to Atala Sport in Padua.

So they decided to start their story again from the beginning and decided to switch to the production of classic shoes. Those were the years between 1952 and 1957, which witnessed the orientation and acquisition of new skills in the creation of women’s ballet flats and elegant, simple men’s footwear characterized by extremely flexible and high-quality workmanship. All this led to the creation of a small collection of men’s shoes with contours that differed from the various styles sold at the time. Renzo Rossetti consequently engaged in work that demonstrated his aesthetic sense and artistic perfectionism.

The story of the Fratelli Rossetti company is an inspiring story of a successful Italian family business that opened its doors in 1953. This is not just an ordinary company story, but a family story: the founder, Renzo Rossetti, and his wife, Lisetta, were dedicated to their work all their lives. The Fratelli Rossetti company is currently run by the second generation of the Rossetti family, the brothers Diego, Dario and Luca, who, due to their different roles and by developing their own different skills, have successfully brought their company to its 60th anniversary, always in search of quality and united by their passion with strict respect for tradition.

Fratelli Rossetti has a long tradition of “big little innovations”. In this company, tradition and quality have always gone hand in hand with insatiable curiosity and commitment to innovation. From the introduction of tassels and the invention of shoes designed to be worn without socks, to stylistic innovations and the launch of the “masculine” style, to the application of colors in unique chromatic shades. It was Renzo Rossetti who emphasized the importance of embracing new materials, styles and shapes: as early as the 60s, he was already experimenting with different color combinations on leather. Today, the company continues its research and development activities thanks to the knowledge of its craftsmen and the creative spirit of the styling department.

Fratelli Rossetti in its collections for men has timeless classic lines that you can find all year in their offer, some of the models are: Brera, Brera Sport, Hobo Sport, Yacht, La Giusta.

In previous stories you had the opportunity to enjoy the Brera models, but this season I decided to show you the other side of the Fratelli Rossetti brand – the new face of sporty elegance.

In today’s fashion story, I want to present to you the dynamic and metropolitan look of Fratelli Rossetti sneakers from the latest Fall-Winter 2024 collection, which are made of the highest quality soft nubuk leather in dark brown chocolate color. Of course, there is also an insole that can be removed and ventilated. The cupsole features the brand’s logo on the back and is made of flexible, lightweight rubber with a custom tread that lets you feel like you’re walking on clouds.

This sneaker model comes in several variations, mine is dark brown made of nubuck leather, while there are 2 more shades of brown: brown deerskin sneakers and smooth antique-effect leather sneakers in ebony colour. Of course, there are also sneakers in the indispensable classic olive color made of suede leather. In addition to this sneaker model, the Fratelli Rossetti brand offers several other sneaker models, so I am convinced that if you are looking for quality and well-designed sneakers, you can find them in the Fratelli Rossetti collection this season.

If you want to stay freshly updated and find out which models of shoes and leather goods the Fratelli Rossetti brand has in its offer, visit their official online store and follow them on the social networks Facebook and Instagram.

Brett Johnson: Fashion for the Modern Man with Sophisticated and Refined Taste…

Fashion Outfit Post 9 Comments

My dear fashionistas, welcome to another fall fashion story from faraway Ecuador on the Mr.M blog. I hope you are well and ready for a new dose of fashion. Today I will introduce you to an unusual luxury Italian fashion brand, which has become recognisable in Europe and the world for making men’s fashion pieces from the finest Italian textiles, luxurious fibers and leather from top Italian mills and tanneries – Brett Johnson.

Brett Johnson represents a real masculine universe of relaxed luxury with a touch of modern and refined self-awareness that every modern man with refined taste should possess. This exceptional fashion brand was founded by Mr. Brett Johnson, a menswear designer born in Virginia in 1989. He studied fashion in New York, where he also worked for Donna Karan, until there was a turning point in his life in 2014 when he decided it was the right time to start his own fashion brand. Mr. Johnson comes from a family of successful entrepreneurs as his parents are the founders of BET Entertainment (Black Entertainment Television), an American cable television network based in Washington and after its sale to Viacom, they expanded the business into hospitality and financial services. Growing up in a family that developed numerous successful businesses, Brett Johnson gradually built his vision of a sustainable and successful independent fashion brand in the right way.

Mr. Johnson battled a lot of prejudice early in his design career as many believed he was just another rich kid who decided to make his way into the world of fashion. With his dedicated work and exceptional creativity, Mr. Johnson showed what a refined, self-aware modern man should look like, because due to his creativity, he managed to include his fashion brand in the offer of the famous department store Neiman Marcus, which recognized the undeniable talent of Mr. Johnson, as well as his vision brand.

The Brett Johnson brand has experienced dizzying success in the world of fashion in a short time, which is why Mr. Johnson opened his first flagship store in 2017, on Mercer Street, the elegant heart of Soho. At that moment there was a need to internationalize his brand and therefore the collection had to be presented all over the world. The world of fashion is special and the right decisions need to be made to keep a brand at the top and Mr. Johnson found himself at an important business crossroads and it was time to choose the next market to expand his brand.

New York, where the heart of the brand is located, needed to find a place in Europe to expand the business. When we talk about the world of fashion, there are only two European metropolises where every brand can develop, namely Milan, the center of the fashion business and the cradle where the “Made in Italy” concept of work is kept, or Paris, the famous international fashion hub in Europe. Mr. Johnson decided on Milan, where he still achieves outstanding results.

With each new collection, designer Brett Johnson left the men’s fashion world speechless because his pieces are iconic and timeless and can be worn on any occasion. It is my great honour to present to you the extraordinairy piece of the new Brett Johnson Fall-Winter 2024 collection. While writing this fashion story, I am trying to find the right words to define the new Brett Johnson FW24/25 collection. At a very first sight, I would say that the collection is inspired by the neutral colours of nature and everything is subordinated to comfort, unique refinement and inevitable elegance.

The brand itself is recognised for its creation of high-quality clothing and fashion accessories for men, but this piece of fashion that I will present to you today – an aviator navy jacket made of exquisite deerskin is for me a piece of fashion that simply invites you to travel and explore the work. With this jacket I enjoyed the beauty of Ecuador and I discovered some interesting places in the capital of Ecuador – Quito, as well as the heart of Ecuador’s culture – Cuenca and I have fond memories.

The new Brett Johnson FW24/25 collection is inspired by the green natural environment, with colors reminiscent of the typical shades of the mountain environment; from the white of snow to the blue of the sky, from the warm tones characteristic of autumn leaves to the green of untouched forests. This collection is adorned with jackets, raincoats, parkas, coats and fine knitwear. These are the pieces that the Brett Johnson brand has proposed for this fashion season. Men’s fashion for the autumn-winter season should be made of clothes that are resistant to wind and water, extremely comfortable and super light. In the new Brett Johnson collection, materials like cashmere, leather and wool are used, soft and warm fibers that gently envelop the figure, giving an authentic experience of comfort.

In today’s post you have the opportunity to see a navy Aviator Deerskin Jacket from the latest Brett Johnson FW24/25 collection, which is made of the finest pebbled deerskin, the beauty of which is emphasised by a natural shearling fur collar. The jacket has ribbed cuffs and hem.

This beautiful long sleeve leather aviator jacket features a front zipper with two front pockets. All the materials used to make the jacket – natural leather and fur – are of Italian origin and the entire production was carried out in Italy.

In the following fashion stories, I will show you some more outfits that were completed with this extraordinary jacket and I believe that you will find inspiration for your ideal fall-winter outfit.

The essence of the brand is an artistic endeavor and a creative liberating form, an entire interconnected product landscape in the world that stands for creative craftsmanship, or as it is better known in French, “les metiers d’art”.

During the process of creating the first “Antarctica” collection, I had the great honor and pleasure of meeting the founder of this unusual luxury watch brand, Mr. Christophe Schaefer, who enthusiastically presented his ideas and drawings of the watch models he plans to create. This is not an ordinary collaboration but a new chapter that is part of my life’s journey and it is a wonderful feeling to be part of a project like Schaefer & Companions. I also have to make you happy that I am the first brand ambassador of this exceptional watch brand and that I will do my best to introduce you to some of the S&C brand watch models in the coming period through my fashion stories in which you are used to showing you various novelties.

Today we will learn a new term that I will often use during the presentation of this brand – companion. Schafer & Companions is a lifetime journey in which Mr. Schaefer and his companions have invested all their passion, the beauty of life, as well as the hopes that passionate watch lovers will recognize the uniqueness and love of art.

The Schaefer & Companions team decided to “break the ice” by marking the launch of its first watch collection at Geneva Watch Days (GWD) 2024 called “Antarctica“, which brings to life two watch models: Solune Medallion and Solune Grand Art. The Antarctica collection, available in limited editions, encapsulates the frozen vastness, quiet isolation and resilience of Antarctica. In today’s post you have the opportunity to see one of the Solune Grand Art variation of models. They are windows into this vast, icy expanse and represent a subtle artisanal intuition. Enamel is a precious material used to make S&C dials where artists have the opportunity to express their skills.

What is Enamel? Enamel is a glass mixture made of silicon dioxide and various metal oxides added to create different shades. Before any color can be applied, the craftsman must create a good basis for further artistic work. The enamel is crushed, ground and purified, first in distilled water and then in nitric acid. Then the copper, silver or gold plate is cleaned and coated with a layer of white enamel on both sides. The end result is a perfectly clean “canvas” for painting without the fear that the copper will bend when exposed to extreme temperatures.

After the process of making an enamelled dial, we come to the most complex part of making an enamelled watch, and that is making the dial. Because the colors of the enamel react differently and change in the oven, the designer must know exactly in advance how the material will react in order to create a work of art that can be faithfully reproduced.

Once the dial is properly constructed with the coated dial plate, the painting process can begin! The artist prepares a palette of colors with the nuances needed to create a predetermined image. The image must be carefully applied in several layers and baked in an oven up to 800ºC between painting processes. First, harder, more elastic colors are applied that can withstand multiple cracking, while gentle shades are kept in the final stages. With just a small misjudgment, the dial can warp, burst, or explode. Since the colors react to the heat both individually and collectively, a small mistake in the order can lead to unwanted results and force the masters to start re-making the enamelled dial.

Owning a dial, that little enamel masterpiece in my personal collection is exceptional. Due to the cost and complexity associated with its creation, the vast majority of enameled works are in museums. The rarity of skilled craftsmen is another factor, as the craft almost became extinct in the early twentieth century.

Proof that miracles are possible is Mrs. Françoise Remmonay of the Donzé Cadran Atelier based in Le Locle and she is a member of the S&C team and she is in charge of enamelled medallions and dials. In today’s fashion story, you will have the opportunity to see the dial that she made – a model of a frozen ocean that offers a view of the coldest continent in the world – Antarctica.

The Solune Grand Art watch model that you have the opportunity to see in today’s post represents a captured moment of an eternally living landscape of frozen waves of a turbulent ocean. The dial enameling process of this watch model begins with the sculpting of fine sheets of silver that are shaped into a realistic wave structure that provides personality and depth. Several layers of rare and limited enamel derived from antique enamel ateliers were then applied to the silver relief. This composition of enamel relief combined with vibrant colors creates a unique watch with a strong and distinctive character.

Brioni is an Italian luxury menswear fashion house based in Rome specializing in ready-to-wear footwear, leather goods, shoes, eyewear, fragrances and Bespoke.

This luxury brand was founded in Rome in 1945, while a little later, in 1952, the brand organized the first menswear show in modern fashion history. The brand invented the MTM Trunk Show and Prêt Couture. Brioni opened the tailoring school Scuola di Alta Sartoria in Penne in 1985. Brioni was bought by the luxury group Kering in 2011, the new general director of the Brioni fashion house is Mehdi Benabadji since December 2019, and Norbert Stumpfl is the creative director since October 2018.

Brioni was the first sartorial menswear brand to use bold colors and lighter materials, introducing new silhouettes using slimmer shapes with natural shoulders. This fashion story officially begins in 1952, when Brioni staged the first menswear fashion show in modern fashion history, inside the Sala Bianca at Palazzo Pitti in Florence, where the revolutionary Peacock Revolution was presented. Brioni also designed the Trunk Show, during which collections are presented directly in stores, allowing customers to personalize garments with the Su Misura (made to measure) service.

Brioni promoted the “total look”, the production of suits, hats, ties, shirts and shoes. A little later, in 1959, a production plant was opened in Penne, Abruzzo, Mr. Nazareno Fonticoli’s hometown. Named Brioni Roman Style, the state-of-the-art factory introduced the concept of Pret Couture or ready-to-wear haute couture that sealed the international rise of the brand.

In 1985, the Brioni fashion house opened a tailoring school in Penne with the aim of passing on the specific Brioni sartorial method to younger generations. That same year, Brioni opened a store in New York’s Fisher Building on 52nd Street. A few years later, in 1990, Umberto Angeloni was appointed CEO of Brioni. He started the company in diversifying its product lines, from sportswear to women’s wear (Lady Brioni) and accessories. Between 1995 and 2001, the company’s revenue tripled to $150 million. In 2007, Brioni partnered with the Royal College of Art in London to train master tailors through a three-year program, but this partnership ended in 2019 after 12 long years.

In 2006, Brioni decided to change the way of managing the company’s strategy, so in 2006 the rule of three joint executive directors was introduced: Antonella de Simone, Andrea Perone and Antonio Bianchini. In June 2007, Angeloni and his wife sold their 17% stake in the company. In 2009, Brioni was hit by the economic crisis, but refused to move its production outside Italy. Instead, the brand released new product categories with new fabrics and introduced men’s perfumes, the brand’s first foray into the world of perfume since the release of Good Luck in 1958. Mr. Andrea Perrone took over as CEO and appointed Mr. Alessandro Dell’Accu as Creative Director of Womenswear in May 2010, but the brand discontinued its women’s line the following year.

In today’s fashion story, my outfit is enriched with trousers made of the finest wool from the new Brioni FW24 collection. The trousers are made of wool with a dark blue base and fine stripes. These trousers can be worn with a blazer and that way you can get a completely elegant look as a suit, while today I decided to present them in a sporty elegant look that can be worn every day.

If you want to stay updated and find out what all the novelties Brioni has to offer for us this fashion season, follow this an iconic Italian fashion house on Facebook and Instagram.

Today I will present to you an unusual luxury Italian fashion brand, which has become recognisable in Europe and the world for its Italian charm that adorns a timeless and unique style with top quality materials – Sannino Napoli.

This unusual brand that comes to us from Naples, the Italian cradle where the love of tailoring was born, this brand strives to prove that true Italian craftsmanship with true, timeless and unique style comes from the fashion heart of Italy – Naples.

The Sannino Napoli creative team creates a collection of outerwear that reflect the attitudes and priorities of the changing modern world. In a unique way, this brand combines the lifestyle of a modern man with Italian tailoring, dynamism with the essential. This family brand has been the backbone of contemporary wardrobe for almost 40 years.

The base materials are some of the best fabrics and precious leathers on the market. The Sannino Napoli team uses certified fabrics such as Loro Piana “Rain System”, “Storm System”, “Capolavoro” or “Pecora Nera”. Exceptional materials such as linen, silk, wool and cashmere blends as well as Extreme Wool and Pecora Nera offer comfort and weather protection.

We continue today’s fashion adventure with well-known old friends, I’m sure you remember the brand Aida Barni, which is synonymous with the perfect softness and refined Italian processing of cashmere. Last season we enjoyed the beauty of bright colors, while this year I decided to paint cold autumn days in distant Ecuador with pastel colors. In today’s fashion story I will share with you an unusual piece from their new winter collection!

Soft, light and warm cashmere items are also a good investment and practical during winter. When you give someone a cashmere sweater as a gift, it is a gift from the heart because a cashmere sweater carries with it a certain symbolism.

Aida Barni is a brand belonging to the Annapurna Group. Founded in 1978, the Annapurna Group has become one of the leading Italian and world producers of high-quality cashmere knitwear with its two fashion lines, Annapurna and Aida Barni.

OUTFIT

Leather Jacket: Sannino Napoli

Sweater: Aida Barni

Watch: Appella

Trousers: WOOYOUNGMI

Shoes: Pantanetti

Annapurna uses all the latest production techniques available on the market, from cotton looms to the latest and most advanced knitwear machines of all sizes. The current production capacity is about 120,000 pieces per year. It is important to note that the entire production cycle is performed in Italy, more precisely in the factory of the company located in the city of Prato, which is also the center of the province of the same name located in the heart of Italy – Tuscany.

“Made in Italy” is more than a production concept, but this brand has proven to be much more than the perfect cashmere sweater on a store shelf. It is love at first touch, an impression to remember.

Annapurna is a name that evokes everyone with exceptional mountain landscapes, especially the mountain range in the Himalayas where goats live with their winter fleece, hiding the soft, warm “cloak” that made them so famous.

Aida Barni is an iconic and fascinating name for a fashion line that produces high quality knitwear from the finest cashmere. Aida Barni is a symbol of a goal for a woman who decided to enter the world of business in the late seventies and reach the very top of this challenging and one of the most difficult sectors of the market.

The Aida Barni brand was created as an artistic expression of the way of life and existence, the essence of unstressed chic, refined luxury. A collection for men and women dedicated to everyone who loves timeless and elegant knitwear that encompasses true elegance in the preciousness of materials, shapes and details.

The man who wears Aida Barni knitwear does not follow trends, but creates and adapts to the needs of everyday life. The men’s collection is made up of cult clothing items of sentimental value, which evoke a healthy and environmentally friendly way of life. Customers of the Aida Barni brand love natural and fine yarns, enjoy comfort, but do not give up the elegance and sophistication of cuts and models. Aida Barni concept of men’s “sports elegance” is simple and with style, but rich in materials and inconspicuous details that make this brand cult because it represents an expression of uniqueness and special class.

The sweater you see in today’s post is from the latest Aida Barni Autumn – Winter 2024/25 collection, beige colour is made of pure cashmere with special work in the form of oversized braids. This sweater is made of the highest quality cashmere in a beautiful beige color that is ideal for the new season, which can easily be combined with all the colors in your wardrobe!

You can buy Aida Barni cashmere items in multi-brand stores and department stores across Europe and the world and through authorized online stores. When you give someone an Aida Barni piece, it is more than respect and love because you are giving a piece in which love and deep respect for art that is not worshiped every day is woven.

For all Aida Barni fans in Germany, I have discovered two men’s spots where you can find and enjoy in the beauty of Aida Barni incredible knitwear: Braun Hamburg and Mientus retail stores.

If you want to stay tuned and find out all the news that Aida Barni is preparing for us this fashion season, follow them on the social networks Facebook and Instagram.

WOOYOUNGMI is a South Korean menswear brand launched in Paris by designer Youngmi Woo in 2002. The creative duo once stated that art and architecture are the main sources of inspiration for the brand. Since the brand’s inception, WOOYOUNGMI has cemented itself as a major global contender for designer menswear. Despite being Korean, they found that the French capital would better suit their aesthetic and growing ambitions. After 22 years of continuous success, Ms. Woo and her daughter and co-creative director of the brand, Katie Chung, are constantly striving to give new fashion definitions to the WOOYOUNGMI man and achieving a good fashion and life balance. Interestingly, WOOYOUNGMI is the first menswear brand in South Korea headed by women as creative directors.

Youngmi Woo was born in Seoul, South Korea in 1959. Her father was the head of an architectural firm, which allowed her to travel a lot, bringing home international magazines, which the young Youngmi studied, becoming curious about the world outside of Korea. Together with her mother, who taught both art and piano, they did their best to use what they had to provide a creative environment for their five children. She studied fashion at Sungkyunkwan University in Seoul. After graduating in 1983, she was chosen to represent Korea at the Japan International Fashion Contest in Osaka where she won.

Not long after, in 1988, Ms. Youngmi Woo launched the menswear brand Solid Homme, starting with a single store. Today, there are 21 stores opened in cooperation with the Hyundai Group, as well as others with Lotte, Shinsegae and Galleria. A few years later, in 1993, Ms. Woo and her young designer friends started “New Wave”, as a platform for young designers to showcase their work. This paved the way for today’s Seoul Fashion Week. Designer Youngmi Woo founded her eponymous brand WOOYOUNGMI in 2002 in Paris. She has always wanted to start a brand that allows her the freedom to design for her vision of her ideal man.

The WOOYOUNGMI brand has been showing at Paris Menswear Week since 2003. A few years later, in mid-2011, the WOOYOUNGMI brand became an official member of La Chambre Sindicale de la Mode Masculine. Also in the same year, the brand collaborated with London department store Selfridges on the “My Coat, My Gift” event, where five young London creatives were asked to redesign the best-selling coat no. 51. The resulting designs were exhibited in a special pop-up at Selfridges, with a percentage of the coat’s sales during the event being donated to charity.

The following year, in 2012, under the artistic direction of daughter Katie Chung, WOOYOUNGMIbegan collaborating with artists to create their advertising campaigns. Artists who participated in this project, to name a few, are sculptor Guerra de la Paz and Korean artist Osang Gwon with her unique blend of sculpture and photography, and painter Clemens Krauss. Not long after, in 2014, WOOYOUNGMI launched a special capsule collection with the online shopping platform Mr Porter. In September of the same year, Youngmi Woo was named one of the 500 people shaping the global fashion industry by Business of Fashion in its “BoF 500”. Katie Chung, her daughter, was named joint creative director in 2014 and presented her first collection in June 2014 as part of the Spring-Summer 2015 collection.

Since its launch, the brand has broken into the Western market with high-end retailers such as Selfridges in London and Bon Marche in Paris, WOOYOUNGMI has established itself as a leading Korean men’s brand in Europe.

In today’s fashion story, you have the opportunity to see an interesting fashion piece from the WOOYOUNGMI collection for FW 2024/25. High-waist pants are a special piece that I had the opportunity to see this fall season, I have not had the opportunity to try this model of trousers with many striking details. Apart from the model, the material and the texture of the material itself is special, the pants are made of a combination of wool and cashmere, the material is extremely light and it is important to point out that it is a great advantage that the pants do not wrinkle, so you don’t need to worry about ironing.

Today’s fashion adventure continues with new friends of the Mr.M blog, an exclusive Swiss watch brand that I’m sure you’ll love at first sight – Appella! Usually when people think about the precision work and excellence of watches, they would often imagine some Swiss watch brand. The centuries-old tradition of Helvetic watchmaking has made “Made in Swiss” synonymous with the highest quality. Born from this tradition, the Appella brand embodies the spirit of craftsmanship and is proud to bear the mark of Swiss production.

The roots of the Appella brand go back to the first half of the 20th century, when the Swiss watchmaker Paul Glocker took his first steps in running the Ebossa group. He was not only a skilled craftsman, but also a successful businessman, when he founded the Appella watch brand in 1943.

Mr. Glocker, the founder of Appella, derived his success from the production of Roskopf watch movements at his Ebossa factory, which at the time were considered the pinnacle of Swiss craftsmanship. Inspired by a revolutionary mechanical design and manufacturing process, Mr. Glocker ensured that Appella’s vision contained the same qualities of excellence. The Appella brand continues to draw from its rich history. The legacy of the extraordinary watchmakers who created the brand lives on through tradition as they continue to inspire the makers and designers of Appella watches today.

The new owner of the Appella brand, ADRIATICA PR & A Watch Sagl is a company with a rich background and a long tradition in the world of watchmaking. Under the supervision of ADRIATICA PR & A Vatch Sagl, customers of the Appella brand worldwide will receive the best experience worthy of the SWISS MADE guarantee. If one were to ask what comes to mind when you think of Swiss watches, many would associate them with reliability, high quality, elegance and traditional style. The Adriatica brand embodies these qualities and is universally appreciated for them. The same level of reliability and elegance is represented by the Appella watch brand.

For a long time, these two brands were separate, but coexisted in the same space. Buyers looking for Swiss watches with a true Helvetian spirit would often choose between the Adriatica and Appella watch brands. Creativity can often be driven by competition, but it is the spirit of collaboration that can create the best results. This vision inspired Adriatic’s owners who saw the potential that the Appella brand could bring. With their customers at heart, Adriatica and Appella have joined forces to make the ADRIATICA PR & A Watch Sagl offer complete, unique and 100% made in Switzerland.

Today, the Appella watch brand is being reborn. The watches of this brand can once again win the hearts of customers as Appella joins the family of esteemed watches under the leadership of the ADRIATICA PR & A Watch Sagl Group, whose watches are appreciated and sought after all over the world. Appella has a clear path to establish a relationship with customers based on trust. It is built on a long history, Swiss quality and outstanding presentation. Appella watches can be recognized by the unison of traditional style and diamond finish.

The diamond finish is the core of Appella brand. Diamonds are the metaphorical signature on the watch that confirms that the watch is on the wrist of an Appella person. Those jewels enhance the unique style and make it even grander, grander, simply perfect. Today, the Appella brand combines classic Swiss quality and modern design. Appella watches guarantee precision work for many years and a sophisticated look that will not go unnoticed.

The sapphire glass that protects the dial of each part ensures the longevity of Appella products. The exceptional scratch resistance and flawless transparency of the glass reveal the exceptional beauty of the watch. This charming look can be enhanced in a women’s collection, when the highest quality diamonds are embedded in the dial or case of the watch. Reaching for its rich history, and preserving the elegance of the design and the finesse of the pieces, Appella is a product that can raise and enhance the image of customers around the world.

The watch you can see on my wrist today is the latest Appella watch model from their special collection of mechanical watches. The diameter of the case is 41 mm and the case itself is very thin and elegant. The case is made of stainless steel in the color of yellow gold. The dial has a classic design that is decorated with a skeleton, a moment that makes this watch special.

AIDA BARNI: Discover the Refinement of Luxury Italian Knitwear…

Fashion Outfit Post 4 Comments

My dear fashionistas, welcome to a new fashion story on the Mr.M blog. I started today’s fashion adventure with old friends, I’m sure you remember the brand Aida Barni, which is synonymous with the perfect softness and refined Italian processing of cashmere. Last season we enjoyed the beauty of bright colors, while this year I decided to refresh cold winter days with pastel colors. In today’s fashion story I will share with you an unusual knitwear piece from their new winter collection!

Soft, light and warm cashmere items are also a good investment and practical gift during the fall-winter. When you give someone a cashmere sweater, it is a gift from the heart, because a cashmere sweater carries a certain symbolism with it.

Aida Barni is a brand that belongs to the Annapurna group. Founded in 1978, the Annapurna Group has become one of the leading Italian and world manufacturers of high-quality cashmere knitwear with its two fashion lines, Annapurna and Aida Barni.

Annapurna uses all the latest production techniques available on the market, from cotton looms to the latest and most advanced knitwear machines of all sizes. The current production capacity is about 120,000 pieces per year. It is important to note that the entire production cycle is performed in Italy, more precisely in the factory of the company located in the city of Prato, which is also the center of the province of the same name located in the heart of Italy – Tuscany.

“Made in Italy” is more than a production concept, but this brand has proven to be much more than the perfect cashmere sweater on a store shelf. It is love at first touch, an impression to remember.

Annapurna is a name that evokes everyone with exceptional mountain landscapes, especially the mountain range in the Himalayas where goats live with their winter fleece, hiding the soft, warm “cloak” that made them so famous.

Aida Barni is an iconic and fascinating name for a fashion line that produces high quality knitwear from the finest cashmere. Aida Barni is a symbol of a goal for a woman who decided to enter the world of business in the late seventies and reach the very top of this challenging and one of the most difficult sectors of the market.

The Aida Barni brand was created as an artistic expression of the way of life and existence, the essence of unstressed chic, refined luxury. A collection for men and women dedicated to everyone who loves timeless and elegant knitwear that encompasses true elegance in the preciousness of materials, shapes and details.

The man who wears Aida Barni knitwear does not follow trends, but creates and adapts to the needs of everyday life. The men’s collection is made up of cult clothing items of sentimental value, which evoke a healthy and environmentally friendly way of life. Customers of the Aida Barni brand love natural and fine yarns, enjoy comfort, but do not give up the elegance and sophistication of cuts and models.

Aida Barni concept of men’s “sports elegance” is simple and with style, but rich in materials and inconspicuous details that make this brand cult because it represents an expression of uniqueness and special class.

The turtleneck sweater with zipper with 2 front pockets you see in today’s post is from the latest Aida Barni FW23 collection, a wonderful shades of taupe and white colors and is made of pure cashmere. Refreshing colors for the new season!

You can buy Aida Barni cashmere items in multi-brand stores and department stores across Europe and the world and through authorized online stores. When you give someone an Aida Barni piece, it is more than respect and love because you are giving a piece in which love and deep respect for art that is not worshiped every day is woven.

For all Aida Barni fans in Germany, I have discovered two men’s spots where you can find and enjoy in the beauty of Aida Barni incredible knitwear: Braun Hamburg and Mientus retail stores.

If you want to stay tuned and find out all the news that Aida Barni is preparing for us this fashion season, follow them on the social networks Facebook and Instagram.

My dear fashionistas and travelers, welcome to another fashion story on the Mr.M blog in 2024! Winter is my favorite time of the year, when we are able to dress in “layers”, but if you travel in winter it can cause “bittersweet” when packing the things you need to take on the trip.

AIDA BARNI: Feel the Finest Cashmere from the Heart of Italy…

Fashion Outfit Post 5 Comments

My dear fashionistas, welcome to the first fashion story on the Mr.M blog in 2024! Winter is my favorite period of the year, when we are able to dress in “layers” and when we can take out our favorite knitwear pieces from our wardrobes that keep us warm during the lower winter temperatures.

I started today’s fashion adventure with old friends, I’m sure you remember the brand Aida Barni, which is synonymous with the perfect softness and refined Italian processing of cashmere. Last season we enjoyed the beauty of bright colors, while this year I decided to paint cold winter days with some warm pastel colors.

Soft, light and warm cashmere items are also a good investment and practical gift during the fall-winter. When you give someone a cashmere sweater, it is a gift from the heart, because a cashmere sweater carries a certain symbolism with it.

Aida Barni is a brand that belongs to the Annapurna group. Founded in 1978, the Annapurna Group has become one of the leading Italian and world manufacturers of high-quality cashmere knitwear with its two fashion lines, Annapurna and Aida Barni.

Annapurna uses all the latest production techniques available on the market, from cotton looms to the latest and most advanced knitwear machines of all sizes. The current production capacity is about 120,000 pieces per year. It is important to note that the entire production cycle is performed in Italy, more precisely in the factory of the company located in the city of Prato, which is also the center of the province of the same name located in the heart of Italy – Tuscany.

“Made in Italy” is more than a production concept, but this brand has proven to be much more than the perfect cashmere sweater on a store shelf. It is love at first touch, an impression to remember.

Annapurna is a name that evokes everyone with exceptional mountain landscapes, especially the mountain range in the Himalayas where goats live with their winter fleece, hiding the soft, warm “cloak” that made them so famous.

Aida Barni is an iconic and fascinating name for a fashion line that produces high quality knitwear from the finest cashmere. Aida Barni is a symbol of a goal for a woman who decided to enter the world of business in the late seventies and reach the very top of this challenging and one of the most difficult sectors of the market.

The Aida Barni brand was created as an artistic expression of the way of life and existence, the essence of unstressed chic, refined luxury. A collection for men and women dedicated to everyone who loves timeless and elegant knitwear that encompasses true elegance in the preciousness of materials, shapes and details.

The man who wears Aida Barni knitwear does not follow trends, but creates and adapts to the needs of everyday life. The men’s collection is made up of cult clothing items of sentimental value, which evoke a healthy and environmentally friendly way of life. Customers of the Aida Barni brand love natural and fine yarns, enjoy comfort, but do not give up the elegance and sophistication of cuts and models.

Aida Barni concept of men’s “sports elegance” is simple and with style, but rich in materials and inconspicuous details that make this brand cult because it represents an expression of uniqueness and special class.

The turtleneck sweater with zipper you see in today’s post is from the latest Aida Barni FW23 collection, a wonderful camel color and is made of pure cashmere. Refreshing color for the new season!

You can buy Aida Barni cashmere items in multi-brand stores and department stores across Europe and the world and through authorized online stores. When you give someone an Aida Barni piece, it is more than respect and love because you are giving a piece in which love and deep respect for art that is not worshiped every day is woven.

For all Aida Barni fans in Germany, I have discovered two men’s spots where you can find and enjoy in the beauty of Aida Barni incredible knitwear: Braun Hamburg and Mientus retail stores.

If you want to stay tuned and find out all the news that Aida Barni is preparing for us this fashion season, follow them on the social networks Facebook and Instagram.

All the people who have been following my blog for years know that I have a great love for Burberry trench-coats and coats, honestly I don’t even know how many of their fashion pieces I own anymore, but I know that this is my one of the favorite colors that I always like to wear – the color of tobacco. Soft pastel golden tobacco color that blends very easily with other colors.

Burberry trenchcoats and coats represent the pinnacle of world fashion and have become indispensable fashion classics today. These coats were created by the founder of the Burberry company, Thomas Burberry, more than 100 years ago, inspired by the British heritage, and at the same time introduced elements of urban fashion.

You can find all classic Burberry coats in 5 basic models: Legendary Kensington, Westminster, Chelsea, Waterloo and Pimlico. All models are named after London districts. What is the difference between these models?

The Kensington – a classic model with a modern cut that easily adapts to any silhouette. The most popular model, which is available in four basic colors: gray, navy, honey color (camel) and black. Also, this model is made in two lengths. The coat you see on me today is this model.

The Westminster – a model that is extended (oversized) and lightly cut for a draped silhouette. Basic colors: honey color (camel) and dark green (khaki). Also, this model is made in two lengths.

The Chelsea – a model characterized by a slim fit (narrow form close to the body) with narrow shoulders and a cut waist. The basic colors are honey and taupe and it is also available in two lengths.

The Waterloo – A more comfortable fit, a longer model than the classic with a subtle and relaxed fit that is ideal for layering. This model is usually made in three basic colors: maroon, black and honey-camel and is available in only one length.

The Pimlico, a simple flat cut decorated with a single-row fastening of a minimalistic character and a modern cut. This model is usually made in navy, biscuit (biscuit color) and honey color – camel. This model is also only available in one classic length.

I would like to note that all the listed colors are only classics that are always produced, but the Burberry company introduces seasonal colors to enrich its offer.

Most Burberry coats have been hand-crafted in Castleford, Yorkshire for over 50 years from gabardine – a revolutionary fabric that Thomas Burberry proudly introduced in 1879. Polished, light and practical, beautiful cotton resistant to all kinds of weather conditions that remains at the heart of the Burberry brand to this day.

The classic coat model originated and developed from the basic form of the Tielocken coat, which was patented in 1912 by Thomas Burberry. A simple but refined unique shape that has been adapted over the years and has become a recognizable Burberry coat.

Each Burberry coat is special and has its own story – one that is made to last and write new pages of life’s chapters together with you. Buying a Burberry trench or coat is an investment, it is a fashion piece that can really be worn nicely and for a long time with proper maintenance and it is a thing you can leave for generations to come. I inherited my first Burberry coat from my grandfather and today I keep it carefully and wear it on special occasions because it has a special sentimental value for me.

When the time comes to buy a Burberry trench, it’s a big deal and especially if you are buying a coat for the first time it is very important to buy a “iconic” piece that you can combine with your items from your wardrobe and it is best to buy a coat in your favorite color, without blindly following trends.

The trench coat or a coat are pieces that are worn over other pieces of clothing, so it is best to look at your favorite pieces of clothing and shoes before buying and judge for yourself which are the two or three colors that might come into consideration when buying a coat. The color of tobacco is a neutral color and blends with other colors with great ease, but each of us knows our wardrobe best and you may find the ideal solution since buying a Burberry coat is a real investment.

In today’s blog post you have the opportunity to see a classic model of the Kensington coat made of the finest cashmere in the color of tobacco, which in my honest opinion is one of the most beautiful colors and the easiest to match with other pieces of clothing from your wardrobe.

Did we fit in nicely at the end? Honestly, I believe we are. After so many years of loyalty to this British brand and because of my personal interest, I have learned a lot about their offer and I am lucky to always be able to show my favorite pieces from the fashion house Burberry on my blog.

Artigiano del Guanto (ADG) is an artisan glove workshop active in the northern part of Naples, founded by Giovanni Ricciardiello, an experienced glove maker for 10 decades, a historical exponent of the tradition of the ancient Neapolitan glove makers.

When your ordering the gloves with ADG Team, it is necessary to specify the main shade of the glove when choosing a color, and in the notes to add information about another shade to make a two-color version, as I did.

Otherwise, simply specify your preferred one favorite color when ordering monocolor pair of gloves.

Sometimes the possibility of “Express delivery” is guaranteed for the color visible in the product photo.

AIDA BARNI: The Noble Cashmere is Timeless and Unmistakable Fashion Choice…

Fashion Outfit Post 3 Comments

My dear fashionistas, welcome to the new fashion story on the Mr.M blog! Autumn is my favorite period of the year, when we are able to dress in “layers” and when we can take out our favorite knitted pieces from our wardrobes that keep us warm during the lower autumn temperatures.

I started today’s adventure with old friends, I’m sure you remember the Aida Barni brand, synonymous with perfect softness and refined Italian cashmere. Last Fall – Winter season, we enjoyed the beauties of pastel colors, while this year I decided to paint the cold autumn days with bright colors.

Soft, light and warm cashmere items are also a good investment and practical gift during the fall-winter. When you give someone a cashmere sweater, it is a gift from the heart, because a cashmere sweater carries a certain symbolism with it.

Aida Barni is a brand that belongs to the Annapurna group. Founded in 1978, the Annapurna Group has become one of the leading Italian and world manufacturers of high-quality cashmere knitwear with its two fashion lines, Annapurna and Aida Barni.

Annapurna uses all the latest production techniques available on the market, from cotton looms to the latest and most advanced knitwear machines of all sizes. The current production capacity is about 120,000 pieces per year. It is important to note that the entire production cycle is performed in Italy, more precisely in the factory of the company located in the city of Prato, which is also the center of the province of the same name located in the heart of Italy – Tuscany.

“Made in Italy” is more than a production concept, but this brand has proven to be much more than the perfect cashmere sweater on a store shelf. It is love at first touch, an impression to remember.

Annapurna is a name that evokes everyone with exceptional mountain landscapes, especially the mountain range in the Himalayas where goats live with their winter fleece, hiding the soft, warm “cloak” that made them so famous.

Aida Barni is an iconic and fascinating name for a fashion line that produces high quality knitwear from the finest cashmere. Aida Barni is a symbol of a goal for a woman who decided to enter the world of business in the late seventies and reach the very top of this challenging and one of the most difficult sectors of the market.

The Aida Barni brand was created as an artistic expression of the way of life and existence, the essence of unstressed chic, refined luxury. A collection for men and women dedicated to everyone who loves timeless and elegant knitwear that encompasses true elegance in the preciousness of materials, shapes and details.

The man who wears Aida Barni knitwear does not follow trends, but creates and adapts to the needs of everyday life. The men’s collection is made up of cult clothing items of sentimental value, which evoke a healthy and environmentally friendly way of life. Customers of the Aida Barni brand love natural and fine yarns, enjoy comfort, but do not give up the elegance and sophistication of cuts and models.

Aida Barni concept of men’s “sports elegance” is simple and with style, but rich in materials and inconspicuous details that make this brand cult because it represents an expression of uniqueness and special class.

The sweater you see in today’s post is from the latest Aida Barni collection, a combination of white and green and is made of pure cashmere. Refreshing color for the new season!

You can buy Aida Barni cashmere items in multi-brand stores and department stores across Europe and the world and through authorized online stores. When you give someone an Aida Barni piece, it is more than respect and love because you are giving a piece in which love and deep respect for art that is not worshiped every day is woven.

For all Aida Barni fans in Germany, I have discovered two men’s spots where you can find and enjoy in the beauty of Aida Barni incredible knitwear: Braun Hamburg and Mientus retail stores.

If you want to stay tuned and find out all the news that Aida Barni is preparing for us this fashion season, follow them on the social networks Facebook and Instagram.

All the people who have been following my blog for years know that I have a great love for Burberry trench-coats and coats, I honestly don’t even know how many of their pieces I own anymore, but I know that this is the first time in several years that I have encountered a suede coat again. This leather coat is an interesting piece, easy to fit, but also very sensitive and may be “difficult” to maintain. Suede leather is a delicate material, aesthetically very pleasant eye catching and fashionable, but sometimes not practical. The only mitigating circumstance with this suede leather coat is the dark color, so the stains are not as visible as on light colors and this leather is exceptional and one of the softest.

Burberry trenchcoats and coats represent the pinnacle of world fashion and have become indispensable fashion classics today. These coats were created by the founder of the Burberry company, Thomas Burberry, more than 100 years ago, inspired by the British heritage, and at the same time introduced elements of urban fashion.

You can find all classic Burberry coats in 5 basic models: Legendary Kensington, Westminster, Chelsea, Waterloo and Pimlico. All models are named after London districts. What is the difference between these models?

The Kensington – a classic model with a modern cut that easily adapts to any silhouette. The most popular model, which is available in four basic colors: gray, navy, honey color (camel) and black. Also, this model is made in two lengths. The coat you see on me today is this model.

The Westminster – a model that is extended (oversized) and lightly cut for a draped silhouette. Basic colors: honey color (camel) and dark green (khaki). Also, this model is made in two lengths.

The Chelsea – a model characterized by a slim fit (narrow form close to the body) with narrow shoulders and a cut waist. The basic colors are honey and taupe and it is also available in two lengths.

The Waterloo – A more comfortable fit, a longer model than the classic with a subtle and relaxed fit that is ideal for layering. This model is usually made in three basic colors: maroon, black and honey-camel and is available in only one length.

The Pimlico, a simple flat cut decorated with a single-row fastening of a minimalistic character and a modern cut. This model is usually made in navy, biscuit (biscuit color) and honey color – camel. This model is also only available in one classic length.

I would like to note that all the listed colors are only classics that are always produced, but the Burberry company introduces seasonal colors to enrich its offer.

Most Burberry coats have been hand-crafted in Castleford, Yorkshire for over 50 years from gabardine – a revolutionary fabric that Thomas Burberry proudly introduced in 1879. Polished, light and practical, beautiful cotton resistant to all kinds of weather conditions that remains at the heart of the Burberry brand to this day.

The classic coat model originated and developed from the basic form of the Tielocken coat, which was patented in 1912 by Thomas Burberry. A simple but refined unique shape that has been adapted over the years and has become a recognizable Burberry coat.

Each Burberry coat is special and has its own story – one that is made to last and write new pages of life’s chapters together with you. Trench-coats and coats are an investment that pays off, it is a gift for generations to come. Believe me, I know this from my own experience, because before my blogging career, I inherited my first Burberry coat from my grandfather’s wardrobe, and to this day I happily keep it and wear it on special occasions.

The leather coat that you have the opportunity to see in today’s post is special because it is made of the highest quality and finest suede leather, which is specially thinned for this model. This Kensington model in a gentle dark color is specific because it is made as a fall-winter version and the lining is made of calfskin to prevent sweating and you will have a cooling sensation during the summer, and on the other hand during the winter the calfskin keeps the heat, but it is important to be dressed in layers. Because of all this, the leather treatment had to be different and the skin of the coat’s face is significantly thinner than that of classic leather Burberry coats.

I am honored that I got this exceptional opportunity to walk through Istanbul, this priceless fashion piece from the new collection for which I tried my best to convey the beauty of this gentle dark blue – navy color to you with these pictures.

We are moving from the British fashion scene to the Italian one, where we are once again meeting with a brand you know, which you had the opportunity to meet this winter season on the Mr.M blog. The Italian brand we’re meeting again today is Marco Pescarolo, a brand from Naples that combines traditional classic Italian tailoring style with modern casual elegance. Naples is known as a colourful, lively, exciting and diverse city, indeed one of the most fascinating cities in Italy. This is where we begin our today’s story about the Marco Pescarolo brand.

Marco Pescarolo is a brand that nurtures the Neapolitan spirit where warm, vivid tones balanced by sophisticated and sharp cuts create a different sense of fashion. The essence of Neapolitan traditional lifestyle and elegance meets contemporary casual style, resulting in a new concept of beauty. Marco Pescarolo is a unique brand that is loyal to its roots and through its brand symbol – Masca Pulcinella this brand wants to pay respect to Neapolitan culture and history, which is the key to the brand’s vision. The symbol of the Marco Pescarolo brand is a mask that belongs to the ancient figure of Pulcinella, a representation of the Neapolitan way of life.

The Marco Pescarolo man is one who successfully combines casual and business wear, as well as formal and informal wear, to exude positive energy and poise in any context, regardless of the circumstances. Marco Pescarolo is a brand that is constantly improving and as a result of one of the many researches is the line System: a new generation of fabrics, in which the exceptional qualities of natural fibers are emphasized and improved with special treatments. Application of high performance membranes, to create technologically developed garments in the perfect balance between style, comfort and functionality for men who know who they are and exactly what they want.

I am sure that there are no people reading the Mr.M blog now who are not familiar with the brand that we will be hanging out with again today in the heart of the Caribbean – Aida Barni, a timeless brand of exquisite knitwear that has become a favorite of Mr.M blog readers over the past few winter seasons. This is the first time I have come across Aida Barni summer pieces and I must say I am delighted.

Aida Barni is synonymous with perfect softness and refined Italian processing of cashmere. Last winter we enjoyed the beauty of bright and unusual colors, while this spring I decided to continue in cheerful and unusual tones. Soft, light and warm items made of cashmere are a smart “fashion” investment and practical during the winter period. When you give someone a cashmere sweater as a gift, it is a gift from the heart because a cashmere sweater carries with it a certain symbolism. Also, sometimes you need to make yourself happy with something new, maybe it’s a new hairstyle, or maybe it’s a new unusual sweater that will put a smile on your face!

Aida Barni is a brand that belongs to the Annapurna group. Founded in 1978, the Annapurna Group has become one of the leading Italian and world manufacturers of high-quality cashmere knitwear with its two fashion lines Annapurna and Aida Barni. Annapurna is a name that associates everyone with exceptional mountain landscapes, especially the mountain range in the Himalayas where goats live with their winter fleece, hiding the soft, warm “cloak” that made them so famous. “Made in Italy” is more than a production concept, but this brand has proven to be much more than the just perfect cashmere sweater on a store shelf. It is love at first touch, an impression to remember.

Aida Barni is an imaginative and fascinating name for a fashion line that produces high quality knitwear from the finest cashmere. Aida Barni is a symbol of a lifetime goal for a woman who decided to enter the world of business in the late seventies and reach the very top of this challenging and one of the most difficult sectors of the market. The Aida Barni brand was created as an artistic expression of the way of life and existence, the essence of unstressed chic, refined luxury. A collection for men and women dedicated to everyone who loves timeless and elegant knitwear that encompasses true elegance in the preciousness of materials, shapes and details.

The man who wears Aida Barni knitwear does not follow trends, but creates and adapts them to the needs of everyday life. The men’s collection is made up of cult clothing items of sentimental value, which evoke a healthy and environmentally friendly way of life. Fans of the Aida Barney brand love natural and fine yarns, enjoy comfort, but do not give up the elegance and sophistication of cuts and models.

Aida Barni‘s concept of men’s “sports elegance” is simple and with sophisticated style, but rich in materials and inconspicuous details that make this brand cult because it represents an expression of uniqueness and special class.

The T-Shirt you see in today’s post is from the latest Aida Barni Spring – Summer 2023 collection, in a iconic beige color and made of the highest quality cotton with a special treatment so that you have a cooling sensation on the skin while wearing it. A wonderful neutral must have color for the new spring season!

You can buy Aida Barni cashmere items in well-known multibrand shops and department stores across Europe and the world and through authorized online stores. When you give someone an Aida Barni piece, it is more than respect and pure love because you are giving a piece in which love for tradition and deep respect for art that is not worshiped every day are woven.

If you want to be updated and find out all the news that Aida Barni is preparing for us this fashion season, follow them on the social networks Facebook and Instagram.

Loro Piana is an Italian company specialised in clothing and textile products. This fashion house is considered the largest producer of cashmere and also the world’s largest artisanal company processing the luxury fiber.

The Loro Piana company has three divisions (textile divisions): a division that deals with the production of high-quality materials using precious fibers such as cashmere and baby cashmere, vicuna, linen and merino wool, a division that deals with the creation of luxury fashion items (production and distribution of men’s, women’s clothing, footwear and fashion accessories) and the interior design department – production and distribution of interior design products.

Originally from Trivero, the Loro Piana family started their family business in the wool trade at the beginning of the 19th century. In the second half of this century, the family moved its activities to Valsesia and founded the Fratelli Lora e Compagnia woolen mill, and then the Zignone & C. woolen mill in Quarona at the beginning of the 20th century. Engineer and founder of the Loro Piana brand, Mr. Pietro Loro Piana founded the company Loro Piana & C. in Quarona in 1924. Soon this company will celebrate its jubilee 100th anniversary of its existence and it will be an extraordinary celebration of the “first fashion century” of this extraordinary fashion house, which I am immensely looking forward to!

Mr. Franco Loro Piana (grandson of Mr. Pietro Loro Piana), after taking over the leadership of the company in the 1960s, started exporting high quality fabrics to Europe, America and Japan. He significantly expanded the markets in which Loro Piana began its new business ventures.

In today’s post you have the opportunity to see the beige linen summer trousers from the latest men’s Loro Piana Spring-Summer 2023 collection, which is just a small part of my favorites this season because of its distinctive elegance and my love for neutral colors. Crafted from the finest linen, these beige trousers are perfect for the man who pays attention to detail and leaves nothing to chance. These beige trousers are perfect for all occasions and can be easily combined with other colors.

If you want to stay updated and find out which pieces the Loro Piana brand has in its offer, visit their official online store and follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

The story of the Fratelli Rossetti company is an inspiring story of a successful Italian family business that opened its doors in 1953. This is not just an ordinary company story, but a family story: the founder, Renzo Rossetti, and his wife, Lisetta, were dedicated to their work all their lives. The Fratelli Rossetti company is currently run by the second generation of the Rossetti family, the brothers Diego, Dario and Luca, who, due to their different roles and by developing their own different skills, have successfully brought their company to its 60th anniversary, always in search of quality and united by their passion with strict respect for tradition.

Fratelli Rossetti has a long tradition of “big little innovations”. In this company, tradition and quality have always gone hand in hand with insatiable curiosity and commitment to innovation. From the introduction of tassels and the invention of shoes designed to be worn without socks, to stylistic innovations and the launch of the “masculine” style, to the application of colors in unique chromatic shades. It was Renzo Rossetti who emphasized the importance of embracing new materials, styles and shapes: as early as the 60s, he was already experimenting with different color combinations on leather. Today, the company continues its research and development activities thanks to the knowledge of its craftsmen and the creative spirit of the styling department.

In today’s post I will present you one of the Hobo Sport models. This model of Fratelli Rossetti shoes represents a unique development in line with the success of the Hobo spirit, so classic and elegant, while also possessing a certain amount of relaxed everyday sports spirit. The Hobo Sport has a fresh and unobtrusive look that makes it one of the most loved models of the Fratelli Rossetti brand.

This model of Hobo Sport moccasins that you can see on me in today’s post is made of soft, finely finished suede leather. This fashion shoe can also be worn without laces thanks to the practical internal elastic band. Rubber sole with custom tread and removable insole.

My dear fashionistas and travellers, welcome to a new fashion story from Cuba. July will be dedicated to fashion stories from an unusual island country in the Caribbean, a country known for tobacco and rum – Cuba.

The pictures for today’s fashion story were created in the very heart of Havana, in the main square, where I tried to convey the energy of this distant exotic country with bright colors. Today, on the Mr.M blog, we are once again hanging out with a famous Italian brand, Loro Piana, and I present to you my favorite piece from their summer collection. The pants that you have the opportunity to see in today’s post are a model that can always be found in every Loro Piana collection, only some new color palettes are introduced in accordance with fashion trends. This season white, the famous navy color is in the spotlight and I tried to combine them with my favorite Aida Barni Polo T-shirt, which you had the opportunity to see in one of the previous fashion stories from Qatar this year.

Loro Piana is an Italian company specialised in clothing and textile products. This fashion house is considered the largest producer of cashmere and also the world’s largest artisanal company processing the luxury fiber.

The Loro Piana company has three divisions (textile divisions): a division that deals with the production of high-quality materials using precious fibers such as cashmere and baby cashmere, vicuna, linen and merino wool, a division that deals with the creation of luxury fashion items (production and distribution of men’s, women’s clothing, footwear and fashion accessories) and the interior design department – production and distribution of interior design products.

Originally from Trivero, the Loro Piana family started their family business in the wool trade at the beginning of the 19th century. In the second half of this century, the family moved its activities to Valsesia and founded the Fratelli Lora e Compagnia woolen mill, and then the Zignone & C. woolen mill in Quarona at the beginning of the 20th century. Engineer and founder of the Loro Piana brand, Mr. Pietro Loro Piana founded the company Loro Piana & C. in Quarona in 1924. Soon this company will celebrate its jubilee 100th anniversary of its existence and it will be an extraordinary celebration of the “first fashion century” of this extraordinary fashion house, which I am immensely looking forward to!

Mr. Franco Loro Piana (grandson of Mr. Pietro Loro Piana), after taking over the leadership of the company in the 1960s, started exporting high quality fabrics to Europe, America and Japan. He significantly expanded the markets in which Loro Piana began its new business ventures.

In today’s post you have the opportunity to see the white summer trousers from the latest men’s Loro Piana Spring-Summer 2023 collection, which is just a small part of my favorites this season because of its distinctive elegance and my love for neutral colors. Crafted from a combination of silk and viscose, these white trousers are perfect for the man who pays attention to detail and leaves nothing to chance. These crystal white trousers are perfect for all occasions and can be easily combined with other colors.

I’m sure that there are no people reading the Mr.M blog now who are not familiar with the brand that we will be meeting again today in the heart of the Caribbean – Aida Barni, a timeless brand of exquisite knitwear that has become a favorite of Mr.M blog readers over the past few winter seasons. This is the first time I have come across Aida Barni summer pieces and I must say I am delighted.

Aida Barni is synonymous with perfect softness and refined Italian processing of cashmere. Last winter we enjoyed the beauty of bright and unusual colors, while this spring I decided to continue in cheerful and unusual tones. Soft, light and warm items made of cashmere are a smart “fashion” investment and practical during the winter period. When you give someone a cashmere sweater as a gift, it is a gift from the heart because a cashmere sweater carries with it a certain symbolism. Also, sometimes you need to make yourself happy with something new, maybe it’s a new hairstyle, or maybe it’s a new unusual sweater that will put a smile on your face!

Aida Barni is a brand that belongs to the Annapurna group. Founded in 1978, the Annapurna Group has become one of the leading Italian and world manufacturers of high-quality cashmere knitwear with its two fashion lines Annapurna and Aida Barni. Annapurna is a name that associates everyone with exceptional mountain landscapes, especially the mountain range in the Himalayas where goats live with their winter fleece, hiding the soft, warm “cloak” that made them so famous. “Made in Italy” is more than a production concept, but this brand has proven to be much more than the just perfect cashmere sweater on a store shelf. It is love at first touch, an impression to remember.

Aida Barni is an imaginative and fascinating name for a fashion line that produces high quality knitwear from the finest cashmere. Aida Barni is a symbol of a lifetime goal for a woman who decided to enter the world of business in the late seventies and reach the very top of this challenging and one of the most difficult sectors of the market. The Aida Barni brand was created as an artistic expression of the way of life and existence, the essence of unstressed chic, refined luxury. A collection for men and women dedicated to everyone who loves timeless and elegant knitwear that encompasses true elegance in the preciousness of materials, shapes and details.

The man who wears Aida Barni knitwear does not follow trends, but creates and adapts them to the needs of everyday life. The men’s collection is made up of cult clothing items of sentimental value, which evoke a healthy and environmentally friendly way of life. Fans of the Aida Barney brand love natural and fine yarns, enjoy comfort, but do not give up the elegance and sophistication of cuts and models.

Aida Barni‘s concept of men’s “sports elegance” is simple and with sophisticated style, but rich in materials and inconspicuous details that make this brand cult because it represents an expression of uniqueness and special class.

The Polo T-Shirt you see in today’s post is from the latest Aida Barni Spring – Summer 2023 collection, in a refreshing red color and made of the highest quality cotton with a special treatment so that you have a cooling sensation on the skin while wearing it. A refreshing color for the new spring season!

You can buy Aida Barni cashmere items in well-known multibrand shops and department stores across Europe and the world and through authorized online stores. When you give someone an Aida Barni piece, it is more than respect and pure love because you are giving a piece in which love for tradition and deep respect for art that is not worshiped every day are woven.

Moccasins: Tod’s

Coming to my favorite part of the post – the shoes! The moccasins that you have the opportunity to see in today’s post are from the Spring – Summer collection of the Italian fashion house Tod’s in collaboration with the luxury car brand Ferrari. The moccasins are made of the highest quality red suede (turned) leather.

Tod’s is one of the few brands on the fashion scene that has remained true to its roots and for generations all brands from the Tod’s group strive to preserve an elegant and refined fashion direction while maintaining exceptional quality and modernizing the design to obtain a unique result – a modern elegant classic.

Tod’s as a brand has always stood out for its quality leather and models that come from artisan workshops. The idea of Mr. Diego Della Valle was to create shoes, clothes and fashion accessories suitable for both formal and informal occasions, with a casual, comfortable, simple but refined taste. Today, the Tod’s brand represents the pinnacle of Italian fashion and, in addition to footwear, produces clothing, knitwear and fashion accessories that have found their place in the hearts of people throughout Europe and the world.
