Berluti: French Synonym for Refined Style, Elegance and Incomparable Craftsmanship

My dear fashionistas, welcome to another fashion story on the Mr.M blog in the new year 2025! I hope you are well and ready for a new dose of fashion. At the very beginning of this post, I would like to take the opportunity to congratulate you on the New Year and Christmas holidays. I wish you all the best in 2025, primarily good health and perhaps most of all what we need in life – a little luck and may all your wishes come true, the small ones as well as the bigger ones! Today I’m going to introduce you to a new friend of the Mr.M blog, an unusual luxury French brand that I’m sure you’ve had a chance to hear about by now if you love the world of fashion – Berluti.

Berluti is a well-known French fashion house founded in 1895 by the Italian maestro Alessandro Berluti, which produces men’s shoes, leather goods, and men’s clothing. Today, Berluti is owned by the LVMH group.

How was the Berluti fashion empire created? Mr. Alessandro Berluti was born in 1865 in Senigalia, a village on the Adriatic Sea. There he learned the trade of a carpenter from a local craftsman. He also acquired knowledge in the field of leather. Alessandro Berluti left Italy at the age of 19 and went to France. He first spent several years on the road with a troupe of actors for whom he made stage shoes. He settled in Paris in 1895, as a shoemaker. The Universal Exhibition of 1900 in Paris was a turning point in his career and a special opportunity for Mr. Berluti to expand his clientele and conquer some new markets. He created models for several prominent personalities of the time, some of them were: Isadora Duncan, Helena Rubinstein and Elizabeth Arden.

After the First World War, the Berluti Oxford shoe model was offered to all lovers of luxury footwear. This model was made from one piece of leather, and the seams were invisible thanks to the three-eye method. These shoes were polished, which gave them a shimmering color, like a mirror. The Duke of Windsor was one of the loyal customers of Berluti shoes. This fashion story was continued by his son Torello, who succeeded him in 1928. He opened the first boutique workshop at Rue du Mont-Thabor 2 under the name “Berluti, luxury shoemakers”. As the boutique eventually became too small, it was moved to 26 rue Marbeuf during World War II. The Berluti brand created the uniforms for the French Olympic and Paralympic team for the opening ceremony of the 2024 Summer Olympics.

In 1959, Talbinio Berluti launched “luxury ready-to-wear shoes”, offering lower prices. With this, he expanded Berluti’s clientele. He was joined by Olga Berluti, née Squeri, who would learn the shoemaking trade with him after completing her apprenticeship in the workshop. During the 1960s, Berluti sold abroad and counted Warhol, François Truffaut and Yves Saint Laurent among his clients.

A little later, in 1970, Olga succeeded Talbini at the head of Berluti and was Berluti’s artistic director from 1961 to 2011. She supported the modernization of the house and its growth. The turning point in the work of this brand was in 1993, when the Berluti brand was bought by the LVMH-Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton group. In the early 2000s, against the background of a simmering conflict between the Gucci group and LVMH, the Italian brand Gucci copied two of Berluti’s flagship models, each creation of which was registered: the sanctions for the “act of counterfeiting” were severe, and Berluti refused to make a compromise.

Olga will continue to take over the artistic direction of Berluti until September 2011. Berluti’s international development is progressing: the brand has more than thirty boutiques in major world capitals. Received the title of Chevalier de la Legion d’honneur from Bernard Arnault, by decree of December 31, 2012.

Starting from July 2011, Mr. Alessandro Sartori, who developed his skills at Ermenegildo Zegna, takes over the position of artistic director of Berluti. Diversification in clothing production began in January 2012. Alessandro Sartori presents the first collection of 400 pieces. In the meantime, the executive director was changed and Mr. Antoine Arnault was appointed in 2012. LVMH’s purchase of Parisian tailor Arnys in mid-2012 allows for a line of bespoke suits called “Berluti by Arnys”, an acquisition that was followed a few months later by that of Anthony Delos.

In September 2016, Haider Ackermann was appointed artistic director until April 2018, when he was replaced by Chris Van Asche.

The company’s communication is based on leather (specifically Venezia leather) and its fit. Bespoke or ready-made, Berluti shoes are presented “raw” and then coated with a specific patina similar to Japanese lacquer. This patina consists of essential oils, shoe polish and water. Berluti’s advertisement says that each custom shoe requires 250 operations performed in their workshop and nine months of creation.

From the 1960s onwards, Olga Berluti proposed leather as an extension of the line. In the 1990s, she decorated her creations with scarification, piercings and various forms of tattoos.

The fame of the Berluti brand is built around Olga Berluti and her high-profile clients: Andy Warhol, the Duke of Windsor, Jean Cocteau, Jules Brinner, Marcel Achard and Claude Francois are among the famous clients. The Berluti brand is also present in the cinema. Olga was nominated for Caesars several times. She won Best Costume for Arthur Joffe’s Harem in 1986. A few years later, in 1995, she won the David di Donatello Award for the film Farinelli. A pair of Berluti boots from the 1990s was cited in the Dumas affair, a scandal involving former minister Roland Dumas.

The Berluti brand is also known for its marketing event, the “Swann” club, named after Marcel Proust’s dandy. Once a year, it offers its loyal customers group “skating”. Its members met for the first time in 1992 at the Hotel de Crillon.

In today’s post, you have the opportunity to see an interesting piece from the latest autumn-winter Berluti collection for 2024/25, which is a cashmere jacket in a beautiful honey color. The cashmere camel jacket is a classic cut with brown leather details and is a must-have for every style-conscious man. The jacket is made of the finest cashmere and is filled with down. What I can say after trying on several outfits, this jacket definitely gives every outfit a special elegant and understated touch, which will definitely make you stand out wherever you go.

We continue today’s fashion story in Italy with another new friend of the Mr.M blog, a visionary fashion brand that proves that age doesn’t matter! BoB Company is a menswear brand born in Prato, the heart of Tuscany.

The BoB brand was created by designers who did not want to be satisfied with men’s fashion dictates, but wanted their customers to explore real masculine elegance worthy of dreams. The philosophy of the BoB Company brand is quite direct and simple: clothes for men who like to stand out, to be different, original and maybe sometimes a little unpredictable, but who did not want to hide under a mask. Imagine how boring a white polo shirt is when you can add an original and discreet touch to it: embroidered flowers, colorful stitching or a touch of color. This is a brand that changed the rules of the game in the fashion world!

Men who have chosen BoB creations are ready to adopt a new state of mind whose thinking is a little outside the mold or box, a little artistic, possessing a new idea of ​​independence and freedom. Polo shirts with unusual bright motifs, jackets with hand-embroidered details or sweaters in bold colors are produced with joy and happiness by the BoB team in the heart of Tuscany in the cradle of fashion – Italy.

In today’s post, you have the opportunity to see a sweater from the latest Autumn – Winter BoB collection, which, in addition to the interesting work of the braids, has another addition, a material similar to the lining of the jacket that allows you to feel extra warm, so you can also wear some lighter jackets due to the exceptional thermal insulation in the form support on the back. Apart from being an unusual fashion piece, it is also extremely practical. The color is beautiful and easy to blend, so it can be worn with all current winter colors.

Today, we are once again hanging out with the Italian family workshop for handmade Restelli gloves, a place where the art, tradition and beauty of handicrafts meet every day, which is the true definition of the Italian style and way of life in general.

Making gloves is not only a job but also a real art. Passion, emotions, tradition and knowledge have been passed on to the third generation after 100 years! Raffaella Restelli has fully accepted the challenges of the new fashion era in which the market and the way of selling have changed with deep respect and belief in tradition and a love for lasting masterpieces!

In today’s post, you had the opportunity to see Restelli gloves made of special peccary leather. These luxury leather gloves are made of the highest quality leather. The lining of these gloves is made of cashmere.

Restelli gloves are not valued with money, but with tradition and history full of love and patience that are priceless.

My dear fashionistas, welcome to the first winter fashion story on the Mr.M blog this 2024/25 season. I hope you are well and ready for a new dose of fashion. Today we will continue the story of an unusual Italian fashion brand that we had the opportunity to meet in one of the previous posts on the Mr.M blog – YOON.

Today, I would like to introduce you to the YOON brand, latest creation in the prestigious history of the Mancini family, a long tradition of over 50 years of textile production.

Due to unerring sense of fashion and innovative creativity, YOON clothing becomes a means of living in the third millennium.

The past and the future combine to give a new prism to the general picture of life, synthesizing maximum style and maximum comfort in one clothing combination.

Leather Jacket: Brett Johnson

Turtleneck Sweater: YOON

Pantalone: Brunello Cucinelli

Cipele: Christian Louboutin via MYTHERESA MEN

Today we will continue the story of an exclusive luxury unusual fashion brand that I noticed in a previous post that you fell in love with at first sight – Brett Johnson. This brand possesses a multi-faceted spirit that reflects the founder of the brand through his own quest to redefine the American dream we all dream about.

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 go out and explore.

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.

It is with great pleasure that I can share with you all wonderful news, as many of you have asked me what is happening with the brand’s website and you have not been able to access it and view the new Brett Johnson collection, the site has been in the process of working due to an unexpected number visit the site went down, but their technical team solved the problems and the site is available again! I hope that like me, you will find your favourite timelessly elegant Brett Johnson piece for yourself or for your beloved man if you are looking for the ideal gift for your husband.

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. If you want to know more about the Brett Johnson brand, visit brand’s official website and follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

Fashion pieces from the Brunello Cucinelli collection are made so that they can last for seasons and years with the guarantee that you can leave something of exceptional quality to your descendants with a timeless cut that will always be fashionable. Each manufactured piece is designed so that it does not follow blind trends, but on the contrary remains its own and consistent with the style of timeless elegance and refinement. Brunello Cucinelli is a brand that cherishes the values of “quiet luxury”, that’s why you’ll never see an aggressive brand logo on their clothes, leather goods or other fashion accessories, but the design and material will tell the story for themselves.

Brunello Cucinelli is an Italian luxury fashion brand that sells menswear, womenswear and accessories in Europe, North America and East Asia. The company was founded by Mr. Brunello Cucinelli in 1978. Mr. Cucinelli started his fashion house in 1978 specializing in Mongolian cashmere clothing for women. Today, the company owns 94 of the 124 stores worldwide. A few years ago, more precisely in January 2017, the company launched its online web store.

Mr. Cucinelli controls and manages the brand through Fedone Srl. Cucinelli’s family fund owns 57% of the company’s shares, and has also set up a special fund for the benefit of his daughters, Camilla and Carolina, to guarantee the proper handover of his eponymous company. This is an inspiring fashion story about a family.

An impressive fact is that the company headquarters is located in a 14th-century castle on top of a hill in the middle of Umbria, an area known as the “green heart” of Italy. Brunello Cucinelli donates 20% of profits to its charitable foundation and pays workers wages that are 20% higher than the fashion industry average. Also interesting information is that the employees of the company have extremely flexible working hours and that e-mails are not allowed after working hours. This is one of the few fashion houses that have such good working conditions, which is commendable in today’s age of classical capitalism.

My outfit today is adorned with navy trousers from the latest Brunello Cucinelli Fall-Winter 2024/25 collection, which are made of the finest wool. If you want to stay updated and find out what iconic Italian fashion house Brunello Cucinelli has prepared for us this fashion season, follow this brand on social media: Facebook and Instagram.

Visvim: Iconic Japanese Luxury Brand inspired by Hiroki Nakamura’s Extraordinary Journeys

My dear fashionistas, welcome to another fashion story from distant Ecuador on the Mr.M blog. I hope you are well and ready for a new dose of fashion. Today we will continue the story of an exclusive luxury unusual Japanese fashion brand that I noticed in a previous post that you fell in love with at first sight – Visvim. This brand has an adventurous spirit that is a reflection of the brand’s designer, Mr. Hiroki Nakamura, where he draws inspiration from his unusual extraordinary travels around the world.

It is precisely because of this fact that I decided to present my favorite pieces from the Visvim SS25 collection in an exotic destination like Ecuador. The pictures were taken on the private dock of Hotel del Parque and I would like thank their team for the help and support that allowed me to spend the golden hour in Guayaquil in such a wonderful place. If you haven’t had time to read the story of this amazing hotel, spare a few minutes of your time and enjoy the Hotel del Parque review.

Today we continue the story of the ecommerce platform MYTHERESA, as well as the brands available on this platform. I believe many of you have heard about MYTHERESA shopping platform on Mr.M blog, but I would like to introduce you to this electronic fashion paradise. MYTHERESA is one of the leading global luxury e-commerce platforms operating in over 130 countries. Founded as a boutique in 1987, MYTHERESA launched online in 2006 and offers ready-to-wear, shoes, bags and accessories for women, men and children, as well as lifestyle products.

The MYTHERESA online store was founded in 2006 by Susanne and Christoph Botschen and is connected to the multi-brand store in Munich (formerly the THERESA store). In 2014, the THERESA store and mytheresa.com were acquired by the American luxury retailer Neiman Marcus for €150 million, giving Neiman Marcus greater access to international customers and strengthening their e-commerce technology.

During Neiman Marcus’ bankruptcy in 2020, the company began the process of spinning off Mytheresa as an independent entity. In January 2019, Mytheresa launched a children’s clothing category, and in January 2020, Mytheresa Men was launched. In May 2022, a new homeware and lifestyle category followed. In 2022, Mytheresa expanded its luxury offering to include home decor and lifestyle products.

The novelty they presented this year is the launch of certified second-hand watches from over 25 luxury brands, such as Audemars Piguet and Cartier, in cooperation with the Swiss jewelry and watch company Bucherer. As a global retailer, Mytheresa operates in 8 languages: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese and Korean.

In today’s post, you will see some fashion pieces from Visvim brand that you can find on the MYTHERESA online shopping platform.

Visvim is a luxury Japanese fashion brand that is special in itself and stands out in the world of fashion. When I was thinking with which words to describe this unusual Japanese fashion house, I came up with two ideal words: dignity and pride. These two words are usually used hand in hand, but I believe they each have their own distinct definitions. It’s the difference between prioritising taking care of yourself or prioritising what others think of you.

Thinking about some things in life and everyday situations such as: “I want to be like this” and “I want to realize some of my dreams”, the Visvim brand continuously tries to connect its dear customers in the best possible way with the work of Visvim craftsmen who create with dignity placing great value on the cultural knowledge passed down to them. When Visvim clothing, shoes or accessories are finished, the brand believes that customers should really use it and experience it with their own senses in the best possible way, and when the opportunity arises, each customer should think about “why this product really means to me “. These are the moments when the Visvim team is happy to share the honesty they apply in making their products through the fabrics they use and the traces of craftsmanship that exist to reveal.

After all, in any era or time, it is the human heart that drives feelings and human empathy. The Visvim team strives to gradually increase the number of people who can sympathize and relate to their idea that we all live life together by taking care of ourselves through dignity and through the way Visvim garments are made with attitude. This is the kind of thinking that the Visvim team has nurtured from the very beginning.

Visvim is a Japanese men’s clothing, footwear and accessories brand founded by Hiroki Nakamura in 2000. The headquarters of the brand is in the heart of Japan – Tokyo. The Visvim brand has stores in Japan and the US, and is sold internationally in luxury department stores and multi-brand boutiques, including Bergdorf Goodman in New York and Dover Street Market in London. In addition to the main visvim line, Nakamura designs a womenswear line called VMV and a conceptual menswear line called F.I.L. Indigo Camping Trailer. Interestingly, this brand also produces its own range of coffee beans called Little Cloud Coffee.

I don’t know if you knew this interesting fact, but the word “Visvim” has absolutely no meaning. Hiroki Nakamura said he liked the v logos and looked through the “v” part of the Latin dictionary until he came across “vis” and “vim” and liked how the two words sounded together and created a powerful overtone. F.I.L., the name of Visvim’s flagship stores, stands for Free International Laboratory. This stems from Nakamura wanting the stores to be unusual working laboratories for the international brand.

Hiroki Nakamura was born in Kofu and grew up in Tokyo. Nakamura’s parents encouraged him to study abroad. At the age of 11, Nakamura met Cody Horn, one of his classmates at Bunka High School. Through Horn, Nakamura became interested in foreign cultures. Nakamura chose Alaska, a place he grew to love during family whale watching, camping and snowboarding. When he grew up, he started his career at Burton Snowboards in Japan, where he worked as a designer for 8 years.

After leaving his job at Burton Snowboards, Nakamura founded Visvim in 2001. Visvim started as primarily a footwear brand and later expanded into a full clothing and accessories collection. The brand held fashion shows in Tokyo, Paris and New York. It includes seven flagship stores in Japan, two flagship stores in the United States and has 135 stores worldwide.

In today’s fashion story, you have the opportunity to see two pieces from the Visvim collection from the SS25 collection, which are a short-sleeved shirt and interesting Visvim jeans made of the highest quality 100% cotton. I must mention right away that despite the absence of elastane, these jeans are extremely comfortable and provide ease of movement and comfort which is of utmost importance when we talk about jeans. The jeans are from a special collection, but because of the “torn” moment, they are an everyday piece that is good and easy to match, on the other hand, the shirt is ideal for all occasions and because of the neutral colors it can easily be easily combined with all the colors in your wardrobe. The Visvim brand is one of the few brands that does not blindly follow brands but creates its own path.

Visvim footwear and clothing are made using a blend of traditional manufacturing techniques and modern technology. Previous inspirations for Visvim products include vintage Americana, Japanese Edo period clothing, French workwear, Amish patchwork fabrics, Native American clothing, the Alaskan outdoors and the culture of the Finnish Sami tribe. In addition to vintage construction and coloring techniques, visvim also uses Gore-Tek material for waterproof jackets and replaceable Vibram soles.

Which celebrities are big fans of visvim brand? Thundercat, RM from BTS, Eric Clapton, John Mayer, Kanye West, Rihanna, A$AP Rocky, Mos Def, David Duchovny, Schoolboy Q, Drake, KAWS, Robert Ahearn, Edison Chen and Shawn Yue are just a few celebrities who they carry Visvim brand clothing, footwear and accessories. Eric Clapton specifically indicated during an interview that he wears nothing but fashion pieces from Visvim and Loro Piano brands.

Certain pieces from the Visvim men’s collection can also be found on the MYTHERESA online shopping platform.

If you want to stay updated and find out what unique fashion pieces the Visvim brand has to offer, visit their official online store and follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

We will continue today’s fashion adventure in Ecuador with new friends of the Mr.M blog, a new exclusive Swiss watch brand that I’m sure you’ll love at first sight! Schaefer & Companions (S&C) is a new luxury watch brand founded in 2024 in the Swiss cradle of watchmaking, Le Locle. The foundations of this brand are based on the philosophy of artistic freedom, as well as the fulfillment of human beings through liberating creative power and the purity of the craft gesture are just some of the main values ​​cherished by the founders of this unusual brand.

Schaefer & Companions is a symbol of paying tribute to timeless poetry, creativity, that is why every Schaefer & Companions watch is a special masterpiece that has an unusual story. 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 – companionSchafer & 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.

Anyone who has followed my blog for a long time knows that I always try to pay special attention to details. So this time I decided to present to you again one of the pairs of shoes that I have had in my shoe closet for a long time.

Since the whole outfit was in a certain tone of relaxed sporty elegance, I decided to take my favourite Dolce & Gabbana sneakers that I bought a few years ago on a long trip again for the umpteenth time because they are extremely comfortable. I must admit that they completed this outfit in an unusual way. They may have spent some time in the closet, but in the end they got their five minutes! Of course, this shade of taupe goes well with jeans, as well as all the colours in my wardrobe.

My dear fashion lovers, we have come to the end of another fashion story from distant Ecuador, where together we discovered the beauty and splendor of the adventurous debt of the prestigious luxury Japanese brand for the modern man with refined taste with the Visvim brand, the beauty of the wearable artistic landscape of frozen waves with the luxurious new Swiss watch brand Schaefer & Companions, the beauty of shoemaking with Italian elegance with the cult fashion house Dolce & Gabbana, partners with whom fashion stories are a real adventure. I sincerely hope you got some inspiration for your ideal outfit!

See you soon and continue our fashion adventures on the Mr.M blog! How did you like my outfit today? I really tried my best to prepare today’s post with lots of love and I hope you like it!

If you have a question, comment, suggestion or message for me, you can write me down in the comments. Of course, as always you can contact me via mail or social media channels, which you can find on the CONTACT page. See you soon, stay tuned!

SANNINO NAPOLI: A Classy Fashion Story About a Luxurious Burgundy Shade

My dear fashionistas, welcome to another Fall fashion story on the Mr.M blog. I hope you are well and ready for a new dose of fashion. Today we will continue the story of an unusual Italian fashion brand that we had the opportunity to meet this season on the Mr.M blog – Sannino Napoli.

We discovered this well-hidden fashion gem this fashion season and learned very interesting information about this brand that definitely sets it apart from other fashion houses on the market. The first and basic postulate of this brand is the excellent selection of quality materials and their processing, which gives customers a special feeling of comfort, elegance and comfort. Today’s story will be dedicated to the burgundy colour, which is associated with numerous fashion myths, and I will try to unravel some of them for you.

The burgundy colour made its big comeback in this year’s Fall-Winter 2024/25 season and many famous fashion houses followed this trend and made numerous clothes, fashion accessories and shoes in this unusually elegant colour. Bordeaux color is also known among many fashion lovers as an elegant dark red wine color or a juicy chestnut color. This colour can be properly presented in any fashion season, but due to the associations that usually bind us all to this colour, it has become an unmistakable fashion choice for the fall and winter season due to the ideal drowning and breaking of the fashion monotony in winter outfits.

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. This unusual brand that comes to us from 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.

Finding reliable professionals with long working experience who look to the future is something that cannot be put on the back burner. If we add to that professionalism, a huge and deep love and passion for our work, you have finally found a unique brand on the market that we can happily and safely rely on.

Drawing inspiration from the vibrant energy of autumn and the relaxed elegance of winter, Sannino Napoli‘s FW 2024/25 collection of coats and jackets showcases a range of styles that effortlessly blend fashion with functionality. From sleek and tailored leather jackets and coats to versatile and sophisticated pieces, each garment is designed to provide maximum comfort while exuding extreme elegance and refinement.

All Sannino Napoli jackets use water-repellent suede and leather. Sannino Napoli uses many techniques to make their jackets as durable as possible. 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. As always, Sannino Napoli jackets are embellished with suede to give a unique and elegant touch to any outfit.

In today’s fashion story, I present to you a Sannino Napoli jacket made of the highest quality suede leather in a beautiful shade of deep wine-red burgundy. This jacket model is decorated with two pockets with a leather flap, as well as knitted details. The jacket is closed manually with the help of buttons on the jacket.

The second fashion brand I would like to introduce you to is the latest creation in the prestigious history of the Mancini family, a long tradition of over 50 years of textile production. Building its reputation on a solid know-how concept under the label “Made in Italy”, the Mancini family uses the exclusive experience of Italian craftsmanship and high-quality fabrics, to provide elegant fashion creations and exclusive style that characterises the Italian design talent woven into YOON, the brand which combines tradition and prestige.

YOON is the flagship brand of the Mancini family and is characterised by artisanal elegance that has won the hearts of customers around the world thanks to the use of fine yarns, ecological and innovative fibers. Acquired several years ago to enhance the company’s presence in the casual chic market, YOON has so far provided the company with high visibility at the international trade fairs Pitti Uomo in Florence and The Supreme in Monaco.

Due to unerring sense of fashion and innovative creativity, YOON clothing becomes a means of living in the third millennium. For those who pay attention to MADE IN ITALY quality, who deliberately choose not to go unnoticed, giving preference to elegant and dynamic styles at the same time. Intelligent weaving between fashion style and vintage shades, between technology and nature, somewhere between “city style” and “British style”.

YOON presents dry and clean lines in its collections, as required by an increasingly dynamic everyday life. The past and the future combine to give a new prism to the general picture of life, synthesizing maximum style and maximum comfort in one clothing combination. The materials used are extremely pleasant to wear, light and at the same time warm and protective, from new tactile sensations.

Another feature of YOON clothing is the extraordinary ductility of the collection, which is provided by practical models with precise and never superfluous details. Noble fabrics merge into new, intangible and elastic fibers.

In today’s post you have the opportunity to see a burgundy cabled crew-neck sweater from the latest YOON collection. This sweater is unusual both because of the handwork in the form of braids and the combination of red and burgundy colors.

In short YOON is a brand that indicates the style and personality of modern times. In the following fashion stories, I will show you some more models of YOON knitwear from their latest winter collection, and I believe you will find the ideal piece for yourself or a loved one. If you want to know more about the YOON brand, visit their official website and follow them on Instagram and Facebook.

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.

In today’s post you have the opportunity to see a special piece, the timeless peccary men’s gloves, which is considered the most exclusive glove material in the world. Peccary is the skin of a South American wild boar with unique properties. This leather is a strong material, very soft, warm and offers unsurpassed elasticity which means it naturally molds to the hand, even after prolonged use.

These gorgeous burgundy coloured gloves are part of the latest men’s Loro Piana FW 2024/25 collection, which is just a small fraction of my favourites this season for its signature elegance and my love for neutrals. Crafted from 100% Peccary leather and lined with baby cashmere, these gloves are perfect for the detail-oriented man who leaves nothing to chance.

These elegant burgundy gloves are perfect for all occasions, which can be easily combined with other colors. If you want to stay up to date and find out what pieces the Loro Piana brand has in its offer, visit their official online store and follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

Today we continue the story of the Egyptian fashion brand MEROË, which managed to show potential customers that there is real fashion stress relief with its simplicity and practicality. Every MEROË piece of clothing is made with love and to last more than one season.

How was the MEROË brand created? MEROË was created as a real solution for all those who have a certain stress when choosing and finding simple and practical clothing pieces that can properly correspond to real everyday experiences, because all MEROË clothing pieces are designed and tailored with style and comfort in equal measure.

The MEROË brand was founded by Sarah Dawood, founder and creative director. Directed art education at London College of Fashion and Istituto Di Moda Burgo.

On one occasion Ms. Sara Dawood stated: “For me the process never stops, the design process is constant, it is constant everywhere. I design from life experiences, art, movies, music, places I’ve visited, people I’ve met along the way. In the end, I learned about their culture and traditions, and then learned from them. I taste, see and feel culture in its raw form.”

MEROË is on a mission of rational consumption, which means that the brand is working to change the perspective of the industry from fast to slow fashion, so that the MEROË brand will provide pieces that can be worn and loved for longer.

Brett Johnson: The American Touch of Iconic Elegance…

My dear fashionistas, welcome to another Fall fashion story from exotic Ecuador on the Mr.M blog. I hope you are well and ready for a new dose of fashion. Today we will continue the story of an exclusive luxury unusual fashion brand that I noticed in a previous post that you fell in love with at first sight – Brett Johnson. This brand possesses a multi-faceted spirit that reflects the founder of the brand through his own quest to redefine the American dream we all dream about.

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 heart of the culture of Ecuador – Cuenca and I have many good memories from this unusual trip.

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.

It is with great pleasure that I can share with you all wonderful news, as many of you have asked me what is happening with the brand’s website and you have not been able to access it and view the new Brett Johnson collection, the site has been in the process of working due to an unexpected number visit the site went down, but their technical team solved the problems and the site is available again! I hope that like me, you will find your favourite timelessly elegant Brett Johnson piece for yourself or for your beloved man if you are looking for the ideal gift for your husband.

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. If you want to know more about the Brett Johnson brand, visit brand’s official website and follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

Today we continue the story of the ecommerce platform MYTHERESA, as well as the brands available on this platform. I believe many of you have heard about MYTHERESA shopping platform on Mr.M blog, but I would like to introduce you to this electronic fashion paradise. MYTHERESA is one of the leading global luxury e-commerce platforms operating in over 130 countries. Founded as a boutique in 1987, MYTHERESA launched online in 2006 and offers ready-to-wear, shoes, bags and accessories for women, men and children, as well as lifestyle products.

The MYTHERESA online store was founded in 2006 by Susanne and Christoph Botschen and is connected to the multi-brand store in Munich (formerly the THERESA store). In 2014, the THERESA store and mytheresa.com were acquired by the American luxury retailer Neiman Marcus for €150 million, giving Neiman Marcus greater access to international customers and strengthening their e-commerce technology.

During Neiman Marcus’ bankruptcy in 2020, the company began the process of spinning off Mytheresa as an independent entity. In January 2019, Mytheresa launched a children’s clothing category, and in January 2020, Mytheresa Men was launched. In May 2022, a new homeware and lifestyle category followed. In 2022, Mytheresa expanded its luxury offering to include home decor and lifestyle products.

The novelty they presented this year is the launch of certified second-hand watches from over 25 luxury brands, such as Audemars Piguet and Cartier, in cooperation with the Swiss jewelry and watch company Bucherer. As a global retailer, Mytheresa operates in 8 languages: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese and Korean.

In today’s post, you will see some fashion pieces from Brunello Cucinelli and Visvim brands that you can find on the MYTHERESA online shopping platform.

Fashion pieces from the Brunello Cucinelli collection are made so that they can last for seasons and years with the guarantee that you can leave something of exceptional quality to your descendants with a timeless cut that will always be fashionable. Each manufactured piece is designed so that it does not follow blind trends, but on the contrary remains its own and consistent with the style of timeless elegance and refinement. Brunello Cucinelli is a brand that cherishes the values of “quiet luxury”, that’s why you’ll never see an aggressive brand logo on their clothes, leather goods or other fashion accessories, but the design and material will tell the story for themselves.

Brunello Cucinelli is an Italian luxury fashion brand that sells menswear, womenswear and accessories in Europe, North America and East Asia. The company was founded by Mr. Brunello Cucinelli in 1978. Mr. Cucinelli started his fashion house in 1978 specializing in Mongolian cashmere clothing for women. Today, the company owns 94 of the 124 stores worldwide. A few years ago, more precisely in January 2017, the company launched its online web store.

Mr. Cucinelli controls and manages the brand through Fedone Srl. Cucinelli’s family fund owns 57% of the company’s shares, and has also set up a special fund for the benefit of his daughters, Camilla and Carolina, to guarantee the proper handover of his eponymous company. This is an inspiring fashion story about a family.

An impressive fact is that the company headquarters is located in a 14th-century castle on top of a hill in the middle of Umbria, an area known as the “green heart” of Italy. Brunello Cucinelli donates 20% of profits to its charitable foundation and pays workers wages that are 20% higher than the fashion industry average. Also interesting information is that the employees of the company have extremely flexible working hours and that e-mails are not allowed after working hours. This is one of the few fashion houses that have such good working conditions, which is commendable in today’s age of classical capitalism.

My outfit today is adorned with a piece of clothing from the latest Brunello Cucinelli Fall-Winter 2024 collection, which is this beautiful beige turtleneck sweater with special detail work. The turtleneck is made of the finest cashmere which is extremely soft and light, I just wanted to have one of these in my wardrobe when I saw it in the catalog for the new season. In addition to the interesting design, this roller is of exceptional quality that is pleasant to the skin at first touch. This roller is ideal for carrying out everyday activities, as well as for going to work.

Certain pieces from the Brunello Cucinelli men’s collection can also be found on the MYTHERESA online shopping platform.

If you want to stay updated and find out what iconic Italian fashion house Brunello Cucinelli has prepared for us this fashion season, follow this brand on social media: Facebook and Instagram.

On the other hand, in today’s story we have a luxury Japanese fashion brand that is special in itself and stands out in the world of fashion. When I was thinking with which words to describe this unusual Japanese fashion house, I came up with two ideal words: dignity and pride. These two words are usually used hand in hand, but I believe they each have their own distinct definitions. It’s the difference between prioritising taking care of yourself or prioritising what others think of you.

Thinking about some things in life and everyday situations such as: “I want to be like this” and “I want to realize some of my dreams”, the Visvim brand continuously tries to connect its dear customers in the best possible way with the work of Visvim craftsmen who create with dignity placing great value on the cultural knowledge passed down to them. When Visvim clothing, shoes or accessories are finished, the brand believes that customers should really use it and experience it with their own senses in the best possible way, and when the opportunity arises, each customer should think about “why this product really means to me “. These are the moments when the Visvimteam is happy to share the honesty they apply in making their products through the fabrics they use and the traces of craftsmanship that exist to reveal.

After all, in any era or time, it is the human heart that drives feelings and human empathy. The Visvim team strives to gradually increase the number of people who can sympathize and relate to their idea that we all live life together by taking care of ourselves through dignity and through the way Visvim garments are made with attitude. This is the kind of thinking that the Visvim team has nurtured from the very beginning.

Visvim is a Japanese men’s clothing, footwear and accessories brand founded by Hiroki Nakamura in 2000. The headquarters of the brand is in the heart of Japan – Tokyo. The Visvim brand has stores in Japan and the US, and is sold internationally in luxury department stores and multi-brand boutiques, including Bergdorf Goodman in New York and Dover Street Market in London. In addition to the main visvim line, Nakamura designs a womenswear line called VMV and a conceptual menswear line called F.I.L. Indigo Camping Trailer. Interestingly, this brand also produces its own range of coffee beans called Little Cloud Coffee.

I don’t know if you knew this interesting fact, but the word “Visvim” has absolutely no meaning. Hiroki Nakamura said he liked the v logos and looked through the “v” part of the Latin dictionary until he came across “vis” and “vim” and liked how the two words sounded together and created a powerful overtone. F.I.L., the name of Visvim’s flagship stores, stands for Free International Laboratory. This stems from Nakamura wanting the stores to be unusual working laboratories for the international brand.

Hiroki Nakamura was born in Kofu and grew up in Tokyo. Nakamura’s parents encouraged him to study abroad. At the age of 11, Nakamura met Cody Horn, one of his classmates at Bunka High School. Through Horn, Nakamura became interested in foreign cultures. Nakamura chose Alaska, a place he grew to love during family whale watching, camping and snowboarding. When he grew up, he started his career at Burton Snowboards in Japan, where he worked as a designer for 8 years.

After leaving his job at Burton Snowboards, Nakamura founded Visvim in 2001. Visvim started as primarily a footwear brand and later expanded into a full clothing and accessories collection. The brand held fashion shows in Tokyo, Paris and New York. It includes seven flagship stores in Japan, two flagship stores in the United States and has 135 stores worldwide.

In today’s fashion story, you have the opportunity to see some interesting Visvim jeans made of the highest quality 100% cotton. I must mention right away that despite the absence of elastane, these jeans are extremely comfortable and provide ease of movement and comfort which is of utmost importance when we talk about jeans. The jeans are from a special collection, but due to the “ripped” moment, they are an everyday piece that is good and at the same time easy to fit. The Visvim brand is one of the few brands that does not blindly follow brands but creates its own path.

Visvim footwear and clothing are made using a blend of traditional manufacturing techniques and modern technology. Previous inspirations for Visvim products include vintage Americana, Japanese Edo period clothing, French workwear, Amish patchwork fabrics, Native American clothing, the Alaskan outdoors and the culture of the Finnish Sami tribe. In addition to vintage construction and coloring techniques, visvim also uses Gore-Tek material for waterproof jackets and replaceable Vibram soles.

Which celebrities are big fans of visvim brand? Thundercat, RM from BTS, Eric Clapton, John Mayer, Kanye West, Rihanna, A$AP Rocky, Mos Def, David Duchovny, Schoolboy Q, Drake, KAWS, Robert Ahearn, Edison Chen and Shawn Yue are just a few celebrities who they carry Visvim brand clothing, footwear and accessories. Eric Clapton specifically indicated during an interview that he wears nothing but fashion pieces from Visvim and Loro Piano brands.

Certain pieces from the Visvim men’s collection can also be found on the MYTHERESA online shopping platform.

We will continue today’s fashion adventure in Ecuador with new friends of the Mr.M blog, a new exclusive Swiss watch brand that I’m sure you’ll love at first sight! Schaefer & Companions (S&C) is a new luxury watch brand founded in 2024 in the Swiss cradle of watchmaking, Le Locle. The foundations of this brand are based on the philosophy of artistic freedom, as well as the fulfillment of human beings through liberating creative power and the purity of the craft gesture are just some of the main values ​​cherished by the founders of this unusual brand.

Schaefer & Companions is a symbol of paying tribute to timeless poetry, creativity, that is why every Schaefer & Companions watch is a special masterpiece that has an unusual story. 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 – companionSchafer & 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.

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: BreraBrera SportHobo SportYachtLa 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.

Schaefer & Companions: Antarctica Solune Grand Art, Wearable Art Landscape of Frozen Waves…

My dear fashionistas, welcome to a new fashion story on the Mr.M blog. I hope you are well and ready for a new dose of fashion. We start today’s fashion adventure with new friends of the Mr.M blog, a new exclusive Swiss watch brand that I’m sure you’ll love at first sight!

Schaefer & Companions (S&C) is a new luxury watch brand founded in 2024 in the Swiss cradle of watchmaking, Le Locle.

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.

Françoise Remmonay is part of the Schaefer & Companions family and part of the Donzé Cadran Atelier that creates a wide range of masterpieces in the watchmaking industry.

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.

Schaefer & Companions watches will be on display at the Beau-Rivage Genève Hotel during GWD 2024.

Address: Quai du Mont-Blanc 13, 1201 Genève, Switzerland

Also, I would just like to let all interested watch lovers know that Schaefer & Companions will officially open their waiting list on September 10th, 2024, so you will be able to get an S&C watch on your wrist soon.

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.

Today we continue the story of the ecommerce platform MYTHERESA, as well as the brands available on this platform. I believe many of you have heard about MYTHERESA shopping platform on Mr.M blog, but I would like to introduce you to this electronic fashion paradise. MYTHERESA is one of the leading global luxury e-commerce platforms operating in over 130 countries. Founded as a boutique in 1987, MYTHERESA launched online in 2006 and offers ready-to-wear, shoes, bags and accessories for women, men and children, as well as lifestyle products.

The MYTHERESA online store was founded in 2006 by Susanne and Christoph Botschen and is connected to the multi-brand store in Munich (formerly the THERESA store). In 2014, the THERESA store and mytheresa.com were acquired by the American luxury retailer Neiman Marcus for €150 million, giving Neiman Marcus greater access to international customers and strengthening their e-commerce technology.

During Neiman Marcus’ bankruptcy in 2020, the company began the process of spinning off Mytheresa as an independent entity. In January 2019, Mytheresa launched a children’s clothing category, and in January 2020, Mytheresa Men was launched. In May 2022, a new homeware and lifestyle category followed. In 2022, Mytheresa expanded its luxury offering to include home decor and lifestyle products.

The novelty they presented this year is the launch of certified second-hand watches from over 25 luxury brands, such as Audemars Piguet and Cartier, in cooperation with the Swiss jewelry and watch company Bucherer. As a global retailer, Mytheresa operates in 8 languages: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese and Korean.

In today’s post, you will see some fashion pieces from Brunello Cucinelli brand that you can find on the MYTHERESA online shopping platform.

Fashion pieces from the Brunello Cucinelli collection are made so that they can last for seasons and years with the guarantee that you can leave something of exceptional quality to your descendants with a timeless cut that will always be fashionable. Each manufactured piece is designed so that it does not follow blind trends, but on the contrary remains its own and consistent with the style of timeless elegance and refinement. Brunello Cucinelli is a brand that cherishes the values of “quiet luxury”, that’s why you’ll never see an aggressive brand logo on their clothes, leather goods or other fashion accessories, but the design and material will tell the story for themselves.

Brunello Cucinelli is an Italian luxury fashion brand that sells menswear, womenswear and accessories in Europe, North America and East Asia. The company was founded by Mr. Brunello Cucinelli in 1978. Mr. Cucinelli started his fashion house in 1978 specializing in Mongolian cashmere clothing for women. Today, the company owns 94 of the 124 stores worldwide. A few years ago, more precisely in January 2017, the company launched its online web store.

Mr. Cucinelli controls and manages the brand through Fedone Srl. Cucinelli’s family fund owns 57% of the company’s shares, and has also set up a special fund for the benefit of his daughters, Camilla and Carolina, to guarantee the proper handover of his eponymous company. This is an inspiring fashion story about a family.

Shirt: Brunello Cucinelli via MYTHERESA Men

Watch: Schaefer & Companions

Jeans: Brunello Cucinelli via MYTHERESA Men

Belt: BIAGINI

An impressive fact is that the company headquarters is located in a 14th-century castle on top of a hill in the middle of Umbria, an area known as the “green heart” of Italy. Brunello Cucinelli donates 20% of profits to its charitable foundation and pays workers wages that are 20% higher than the fashion industry average. Also interesting information is that the employees of the company have extremely flexible working hours and that e-mails are not allowed after working hours. This is one of the few fashion houses that have such good working conditions, which is commendable in today’s age of classical capitalism.

My outfit today is adorned with three pieces from the latest Brunello Cucinelli SS24 collection, which is this beautiful navy double-breasted blazer, beige shirt and beige jeans. A navy double-breasted blazer is a fashion piece that every man needs because this jacket can be worn on any occasion, from everyday business occasions when you need a blazer like this for a business meeting or you want an elegant blazer for some formal occasions. The shirt is something completely new and unusual than I’m used to seeing in Brunello Cucinelli collections and I especially liked this unusual one, I just wanted to have a shirt like this in my wardrobe when I saw it in the catalog. In addition to the interesting design, this shirt is of exceptional quality made from a combination of high-quality cotton and silk. Jeans are something I really love to wear and I usually have darker jeans, but when I saw these beige jeans I could totally picture myself in them. They have a lot of elastin, which is ideal for everyday activities.

Biagini is one of those traditional Italian artisanal brands that has managed to easily develop and become recognizable throughout Europe and the world without losing its authenticity. Founded in 1968, it is a real family project in which everyone has a part of the credit for the great success because the soul of this brand is made up of people, starting with the founder Alberto Amidei, who takes care of production supervision, his wife Enza, who is in charge of quality control, and both have passed their passion on to their three children: daughter Elisa, who takes care of the company and commercial management, and Valentina, who is responsible for the development of the women’s collection, while son Luca, takes care of the management of the small leather goods department and the development of the men’s collection.

The Biagini brand is rooted in the tradition of leather craftsmanship and continues to constantly conduct thorough research into materials, which are locally produced and specially hand-painted according to the brand’s conceptual designs. In addition to respecting the heritage, the brand carries a truly contemporary creative soul. Biagini’s creative team play with geometries, such as the iconic curved lines inspired by waves, experiment with textures, be it soft hood, raw canvas, python or crocodile leather, have fun with color, exploring a palette of neutral tones as well as a palette of bright hues .

What is the story of this unusual prestigious brand of leather goods? Biagini, a brand born in Bologna in 1968, originally called “Silvano Biagini”, was acquired in 1999 by the Modenese Amidei family.

Eclectic, vibrant and timeless, this brand is evolving, introducing a men’s collection in 2009 and 2013, changing headquarters, expanding its production facilities and creating a showroom, inspired by Italian design in the 60s and 70s, a period in which the spirit of the Biagini brand received its true and true form.

Today’s fashion adventure ends with old well-known friends of Mr.M blog – Fratelli Rossetti. This Italian footwear brand that I’m sure everyone recognizes 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.

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.

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: BreraBrera SportHobo SportYachtLa Giusta

In today’s post, I present one of the iconic Brera models. Brera is the bohemian quarter of Milan where, in the sixties of the last century, sculptors, painters and writers struggled to leave their mark with a new language and new forms. The liberal and cosmopolitan spirit was the source of inspiration for “Brera”, a moccasin with tassels, a style revolution in a country that is just rediscovering its joy of life. Brera combines different materials and colors as a true work of art. The special composition of materials and shapes makes moccasins a successful chapter in the history of Fratelli Rossetti.

Today you have the opportunity to see a special summer version of the famous Brera loafers in shades of blue, made of soft closed-weave material. Special high-quality processing and production. These moccasins have a hand-dyed leather sole. The shoes are handmade in Italy, like all other Fratelli Rossetti shoes.

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.

My dear fashionistas, we have come to the end of another summer fashion story, where together we discovered the beauty of the wearable artistic landscape of frozen waves with the luxurious new Swiss watch brand Schaefer & Companions, the refined elegance and exceptional quality of leather goods manufacturing with the Italian brand BIAGINI, the elegance and prestige with the luxury Italian fashion house Brunello Cucinelli with the shopping platform MYTHERESA, as well as the unique quality of Italian craftsmanship with the iconic footwear and leather goods brand Fratelli Rossetti, partners with whom fashion stories are a real adventure.

Brunello Cucinelli: Simplicity is a Key of the Ultimate Perfection…

My dear fashionistas, welcome to a new fashion story on the Mr.M blog. I hope you are well and ready for a new dose of fashion. We start today’s fashion adventure with old friends of the Mr.M blog, an iconic and wide famous Italian fashion house that is at the very top of the fashion scene – Brunello Cucinelli.

During Neiman Marcus’ bankruptcy in 2020, the company began the process of spinning off Mytheresa as an independent entity. In January 2019, Mytheresa launched a children’s clothing category, and in January 2020, Mytheresa Men was launched. In May 2022, a new homeware and lifestyle category followed. In 2022, Mytheresa expanded its luxury offering to include home decor and lifestyle products.

The novelty they presented this year is the launch of certified second-hand watches from over 25 luxury brands, such as Audemars Piguet and Cartier, in cooperation with the Swiss jewelry and watch company Bucherer. As a global retailer, Mytheresa operates in 8 languages: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese and Korean.

In today’s post, you will see some fashion pieces from Brunello Cucinelli brand that you can find on the MYTHERESA online shopping platform.

Fashion pieces from the Brunello Cucinelli collection are made so that they can last for seasons and years with the guarantee that you can leave something of exceptional quality to your descendants with a timeless cut that will always be fashionable. Each manufactured piece is designed so that it does not follow blind trends, but on the contrary remains its own and consistent with the style of timeless elegance and refinement. Brunello Cucinelli is a brand that cherishes the values of “quiet luxury”, that’s why you’ll never see an aggressive brand logo on their clothes, leather goods or other fashion accessories, but the design and material will tell the story for themselves.

Brunello Cucinelli is an Italian luxury fashion brand that sells menswear, womenswear and accessories in Europe, North America and East Asia. The company was founded by Mr. Brunello Cucinelli in 1978. Mr. Cucinelli started his fashion house in 1978 specializing in Mongolian cashmere clothing for women. Today, the company owns 94 of the 124 stores worldwide. A few years ago, more precisely in January 2017, the company launched its online web store.

Mr. Cucinelli controls and manages the brand through Fedone Srl. Cucinelli’s family fund owns 57% of the company’s shares, and has also set up a special fund for the benefit of his daughters, Camilla and Carolina, to guarantee the proper handover of his eponymous company. This is an inspiring fashion story about a family.

An impressive fact is that the company headquarters is located in a 14th-century castle on top of a hill in the middle of Umbria, an area known as the “green heart” of Italy. Brunello Cucinelli donates 20% of profits to its charitable foundation and pays workers wages that are 20% higher than the fashion industry average. Also interesting information is that the employees of the company have extremely flexible working hours and that e-mails are not allowed after working hours. This is one of the few fashion houses that have such good working conditions, which is commendable in today’s age of classical capitalism.

My outfit today is adorned with two pieces of clothing from the latest Brunello Cucinelli’s SS24 collection, which are this beautiful white linen shirt and linen – silk blend trousers. The linen shirt is a piece that can be found in every Brunello Cucinelli collection and is a timeless classic, you simply can never go wrong with a white linen shirt. Light summer pants are something I really love to wear and I usually wear linen pants, but this time I opted for pants that are an ideal blend of the two best summer materials such as silk and linen. With this model of trousers, my heart was won by the interesting cut and wider legs, as well as the detail of emphasising the waist.

Biagini is one of those traditional Italian artisanal brands that has managed to easily develop and become recognizable throughout Europe and the world without losing its authenticity. Founded in 1968, it is a real family project in which everyone has a part of the credit for the great success because the soul of this brand is made up of people, starting with the founder Alberto Amidei, who takes care of production supervision, his wife Enza, who is in charge of quality control, and both have passed their passion on to their three children: daughter Elisa, who takes care of the company and commercial management, and Valentina, who is responsible for the development of the women’s collection, while son Luca, takes care of the management of the small leather goods department and the development of the men’s collection.

The Biagini brand is rooted in the tradition of leather craftsmanship and continues to constantly conduct thorough research into materials, which are locally produced and specially hand-painted according to the brand’s conceptual designs. In addition to respecting the heritage, the brand carries a truly contemporary creative soul. Biagini’s creative team play with geometries, such as the iconic curved lines inspired by waves, experiment with textures, be it soft hood, raw canvas, python or crocodile leather, have fun with color, exploring a palette of neutral tones as well as a palette of bright hues .

What is the story of this unusual prestigious brand of leather goods? Biagini, a brand born in Bologna in 1968, originally called “Silvano Biagini”, was acquired in 1999 by the Modenese Amidei family.

Eclectic, vibrant and timeless, this brand is evolving, introducing a men’s collection in 2009 and 2013, changing headquarters, expanding its production facilities and creating a showroom, inspired by Italian design in the 60s and 70s, a period in which the spirit of the Biagini brand received its true and true form.

The turning point for the Biagini brand was the year 2018, when the showroom in Milan was officially opened, a space in the very heart of the city, ideal for international customers who have come to love and faithfully follow the work of this brand. Two years later, in 2020, the first boutique was opened in the seaside resort of Milano Maritima. Not long after, in 2021, thanks to young management and a new creative team, there is a strong need to renew the brand, to introduce freshness and lightness, starting with the name that becomes BIAGINI. Thus begins a new story for a company from Modena that decides to reinvent itself, combining a long artisanal tradition with a new, young and contemporary look.

BIAGINI is a family story with over 40 years of work, Mr. Alberto Amidei once said: “Continuity is the greatest hope for a wonderful work that requires constancy, dedication, will and endless passion.”

The philosophy of the BIAGINI brand is based on authenticity, a passion that is in constant dialogue with craft, their connection is ancient and current that is constantly evolving.

The starting point of the BIAGINI team’s research is the material, starting with detailed research and selection of fine leather, selected from among the best Italian tanners who meet high quality standards. The most precious leathers are hand dyed, and each stage of processing takes place in accordance with international regulations and standards. The entire creative and productive process takes place in the BIAGINI laboratory in Modena, home of the brand. The ability to be present in every creative and productive phase of the product allows the company direct, easy and dynamic management.

The BIAGINI workshop becomes the scene of continuous experimentation with colors and shapes, which allow the BIAGINI team to shape unique and precious artifacts, a sincere expression of love for the art of leather goods.

In today’s fashion story, I present to you a backpack from the BIAGINI collection, the Tower Dubaimodel, made of the finest leather in combination with crocodile skin in a beautiful shade of cognac color. The backpack is handmade 100% “Made in Italy”. The backpack is decorated with an external pocket made of crocodile skin with a zipper. The interior of the backpack is extremely spacious and has a pocket with a zipper.

To ensure the comfort and convenience of the backpack on your back there are adjustable leather shoulder straps and a leather handle made of real crocodile skin. All metal accessories on the backpack are neutral silver. In terms of dimensions, this is a true men’s backpack of medium size, measuring: height 39 cm – length 33 cm and depth 19 cm.

We will finish today’s fashion adventure with old well-known friends of Mr.M blog – Fratelli Rossetti. This Italian footwear brand that I’m sure everyone recognizes 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.

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 in its collections for men has timeless classic lines that you can find all year in their offer, some of the models are: BreraBrera SportHobo SportYachtLa Giusta and the new line that you will get to know today – Green Side.

The Fratelli Rossetti Green Side line marks an important step on the way to respecting and sustaining the environment. The project begins with the launch of sports slippers that never neglect the historical values of the Fratelli Rossetti world, such as handwork and tradition. From the Spring-Summer 2023 collection, Green Side also conquers the festive line with one of the most representative models: the iconic Brera moccasins, which in this version stand out for their hand-knit mask with crochet technique, suede upper made of recycled material. material and for the sole made of recycled leather. In the slipper model, the sole is made entirely of natural latex, which makes the shoe versatile and comfortable. For both proposals, the inner lining is made of natural bamboo fibers and the removable insole is made entirely of Pet fibers, which guarantee high breath-ability and optimal moisture absorption. The cotton stitching is particularly impressive, emphasizing the appeal of the handmade product.

In today’s post, I present one of the Brera models. Brera is the bohemian quarter of Milan where, in the sixties of the last century, sculptors, painters and writers struggled to leave their mark with a new language and new forms. The liberal and cosmopolitan spirit was the source of inspiration for “Brera”, a moccasin with tassels, a style revolution in a country that is just rediscovering its joy of life. Brera combines different materials and colors as a true work of art. The special composition of materials and shapes makes moccasins a successful chapter in the history of Fratelli Rossetti.

Based on environmental awareness, sustainability and craftsmanship, this Brera moccasin model from the Green Side project is also reflected in the iconic value and beauty of the Brera moccasin. The loafers you can see in today’s post are made of soft suede and have a hand-crocheted penny bridge, which emphasizes the exclusivity of Brera moccasins. These moccasins have a leather sole.

Vince: Understated Concept of Everyday Luxury Essentials…

My dear fashionistas, welcome to a new fashion story on the Mr.M blog. I hope you are well and ready for a new dose of fashion. We start today’s fashion adventure with new friends of the Mr.M blog, an interesting fashion brand from California that cultivates a concept of everyday luxury essentials that I’m sure you’ll love at first sight!

Vince is a brand that creates “understated luxury from California”. Their design atelier was founded in Los Angeles to capture the legendary freedom and effortless allure of coastal living. Enduring materials – rich, buttery leather, plush cashmere, glowing silk and the softest wool, are executed with exquisite precision and nuanced details that make each piece feel like a personal gift.

A quiet sophistication is found in all their creations which are true little heroes, moving with ease through spaces, seasons, occasions and phases of one’s life. All creations differ in texture, color and pattern. Since the brand’s inception in 2002, every addition to the women’s and men’s ready-to-wear, fashion accessories and home collection has been made to inspire timeless confidence, allowing us to think more clearly and creatively to help us create an image of true luxury and simplicity. This is the conceptual vision and work concept of the Vince brand.

Vince is a brand that uses unparalleled quality materials and meticulous craftsmanship to create their products, which set the foundation for their women’s and men’s collections. All yarns and fabrics are sourced from Italy, Japan and beyond to produce the highest quality cashmere, silk and leather that is resistant to wear and tear and weather. Saturation is enhanced and softened until perfect color is achieved, and detail is refined down to the last stitch.

Clothing items are created to live in, to spend time wearing each silhouette, but also to feel good in that wardrobe. What materials does the Vince brand use in the production process?

Cashmere
Vince has been making items from their signature, ultra-soft cashmere with the same Mongolian and Chinese cashmere goats and in the same factory since they were founded in 2002. Sourcing only long fibers for the softest sweaters possible, over 20 years of working with their cashmere factory has allowed them to customize every step of the process for the most luxurious and essential products, weight, color, tension and finish.

Their design team pays close attention to every detail of the design: every seam is precisely made, every edge is fully formed – the sign of a true luxury sweater.

Silk
Vince’s signature silk was chosen for its unparalleled luster and dream weight: supple, fluid drape delivered in a feathery feel. The crepe lining provides a hint of structure for the fit that follows, but never clings to the body. Their silks continue to grace Vince’s timeless blouses, bias-cut dresses and effortless skirts in an ever-changing spectrum of hues.

Leather
Vince design team hand-select soft, buttery lambskin leather in Italy, France and Turkey for the fewest seams possible and a natural, semi-matte finish to ensure lasting quality. Each selected piece lends refined drape to Vince’s luxurious skirts and blazers, and supple structure to more sculptural trousers and blouses.

In quietly unexpected hues and classic neutrals, Vince leather is often lined with soft twill for calibrated comfort and always finished with color-coordinated hand-dyed trim. The result: forever wardrobe essentials that stand the test of time, trends and taste.

Pima Cotton
Pima is the softest and smoothest cotton because of the extra long cotton fibers used to make it. The Vince team further refines by calibrating the ideal weight, as light as possible for the most elegant finish with enough weight for opaque coverage in Peru, where they have been producing their pima cotton for over a decade.

Fewer longer fibers also make pima cotton extra shiny and durable, able to maintain the color and integrity of the material through multiple washes to keep it looking as beautiful as when it was purchased.

In today’s post, you have the opportunity to see two products from the latest Vince SS24 collection: a hand-painted silk shirt and lightweight navy linen trousers. Both pieces are so perfectly designed that you can make the most of the summer period, unhindered without the obstacles that sometimes the clothes themselves can make more difficult.

This shirt is definitely one of the fashion pieces that marked this summer due to its texture and print that was obtained by hand painting silk. On the other hand, the simplicity and elegance of timeless linen, as well as the dark color itself, is just an addition to this refreshing summer outfit.

Watch: ENVISION

Sneakers: Lanvin via MYTHERESA Men

We continue today’s fashion adventure with new friends of the Mr.M blog that you had the opportunity to meet in one of the previous stories. ENVISION is an interesting watch brand that is proof of Italian perfect design and Swiss precision! Envision is an Italian brand born from the vision of its founder and designer Alessandro Bambini in the productive heart of Italy – Modena, whose passion for watchmaking leads to the creation of wristwatches made in Switzerland with highly innovative designs.

ENVISION aims not only to create watches, but also to design wearable works of art that can seamlessly integrate into the rhythm of modern life and evoke emotions even in the brief moment when we look at the time on our wrist. The ENVISION brand originates from Modena, in the productive heart of Italy, the land of elegance and innovation, with the aim of creating unique and stunning timepieces that embody the art and craftsmanship of Swiss watchmaking.

In the vast and competitive landscape of watchmaking, creating something truly unique and new is an extremely ambitious challenge. That is why every ENVISION model is the result of many years of study and research. However, that alone is not enough. Offering products with avant-garde lines without ensuring that the quality meets expectations would be a challenge lost from the start. That’s why ENVISION makes sure that every watch it creates meets the high standards they set for their brand, while ensuring timely and attentive customer support.

Today I will introduce you to Prisma, the first creation of the Envision brand that deeply embodies the vision of this exceptional Italian watch brand.

A masterful blend of Italian design and Swiss technology, Prisma represents the pinnacle of watchmaking art. Packed with a Sellita SV200-1 automatic mechanical movement tuned by the Envision team, a stainless steel case and sapphire crystal, a Prisma Sapphire Blue ​​blue dial with a sunray finish and an integrated stainless steel bracelet, this watch is the perfection of luxury in every detail that will grace your wrist. This watch represents an uncompromising choice of style and precision.

The 316L stainless steel case surrounds a high-quality sapphire crystal that features a prismatic cut that captures light beautifully. Each reflection creates a play of light, color and shadow, giving the watch a unique and attractive look.

An expansive dial with a sunburst finish, applied indexes expertly crafted with alternating polished and satin finishes, and glossy dauphin hands all contribute to a unique wrist experience unlike anything we’re used to.

What adorns the Envision Prisma watch model is the innovative integrated bracelet that extends around the case. Each link, crafted with care and dedication, is a continuation of the ends of the case, encompassing the wrist until it reaches the opening clasp that subtly displays the brand’s engraving. Each component, created with care and passion, undergoes rigorous checks by the Envision expert team to ensure quality and durability.

Inside each Prisma’s case beats the Swiss automatic heart, the Sellita movement, which needs no introduction. With 26 jewels, a frequency of 28,800 A/h set internally by the Envision team, and a power reserve of 38 hours, it ensures Swiss reliability and precision.

In addition to Prisma Sapphire Blue, Envision has 3 more colors in its offer: Prisma Space GrayPrisma Emerald GreenPrisma Ruby Red. In the following fashion stories, I will also introduce you to the Envision Prisma Sapphire Blue!

I’m sure you want to stay updated and find out what all the models Envision watch brand has prepared us, visit their official online store and follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

Lanvin is a French luxury fashion house based in Paris. Founded in 1889 by Jeanne Lanvin, it is the oldest French fashion house still in operation. Since 2018, it has been a subsidiary of the Lanvin Group based in Shanghai. The House of Lanvin was named after its founder Jeanne Lanvin in 1889. Lanvin was founded in 1867 and opened its first store in rue du Marche Saint Honore in 1885.

Lanvin made clothes for her daughter Marie-Blanche de Polignac, which began to attract the attention of many wealthy people, who were looking for creations for their children. Soon Lanvin was making dresses for their mothers, who were included in the clientele of her new boutique on rue Faubourg Saint-Honore in Paris. In 1909, Lanvin joined the Syndicat de la Couture, marking her formal status as a couturier. The Lanvin logo was inspired by a photograph taken of Jeanne Lanvin while attending a ball with her daughter in 1907. As Albert Elbaz said, “It is not a lion and it is not a horse. It’s mother and daughter, I find the logo very emotional.” Since 1923, the Lanvin empire has included a paint factory in Nanterre.

When Lanvin died in 1946, ownership of the company passed to her daughter Marguerite, who shared the management of the company from 1942 with a cousin, then an expert in the fashion industry. Since Marie-Blanche de Polignac was childless when she died in 1958, ownership of the House of Lanvin went to a cousin, Yves Lanvin. From the mid-1960s until the takeover by L’Oreal in 1996, Lanvin was led by Bernard Lanvin. The export department was in the original factory in Nanterre where all the perfumes were produced and bottled. The administrative seat was in Paris. In 1979, Lanvin bought its independence from Squibb USA and Paris organized a major PR promotional tour in the United States that same year. Midland Bank bought a stake in the company from the family in March 1989 and hired Leon Bressler to restore the firm’s faded image. However, in February 1990, Midland folded and sold Lanvin to Orcofa, a French holding company run by the Vuitton family.

In today’s post you have the opportunity to see their new model of Bumper sneakers that are completely made in white leather. This model exists in various variations and combinations of materials and each sneaker is unique and unusual.

My dear fashionistas, we have come to the end of another summer fashion story, where together we discovered the beauty and splendor of American quiet luxury fashion with the cult fashion house Vince, elegance with the luxury Italian watch brand ENVISION, as well as the prestige of sports elegance with the luxury French brand Lanvin in cooperation with the luxury online shopping platform MYTHERESA Men, partners with whom fashion stories are a real adventure.

DONE Watches: A Young and Independent Exclusive Watch Brand that You will Love!

My dear fashionistas, welcome to a new fashion story on the Mr.M blog. I hope you are doing great and ready for a new dose of fashion. We start today’s fashion adventure with new friends of the Mr.M blog, a young and innovative independent exclusive Swiss watch brand that I’m sure you’ll love at first sight!

DONE is proof that all dreams can become reality, if you really believe in yourself and constantly work on yourself. I believe that there are a large number of watch lovers who realize and understand how difficult it really is to start your own watch brand and that it is every watchmaker’s dream to create their own watch brand one day. In the past, it was almost an impossible mission, but with the emergence of platforms where you can present your project and request financial assistance to achieve your business goals, anything is possible.

Crowdfunding platforms have taken on a very special importance during the last couple of years, especially in the watch industry. While in the past an extremely large amount of capital was required, today there is an almost endless community of watch enthusiasts from all over the world who could help you make your dreams come true. The best thing about it: if watch enthusiasts like your project, many of them are willing to financially support the project before the official start of production even begins.

That’s exactly what Mr. Thierry Clottu managed to do, when he completed an impressive Kickstarter campaign in July 2016. When he successfully raised the financial means for making watches, he set about creating his own watchmaking brand, which he had been dreaming about for years.

Mr. Clottu started making his dreams come true in 2015, when he made the first sketches for his new project. As an experienced microtechnology engineer and after more than 10 years of product development experience for many well-known luxury watch brands, he decided to finally commit to his own long-awaited dream of his own watch brand.

By the way, the name “DONE Watches” has a double meaning: on the one hand, it represents the founder’s personal challenge to create a successful watch brand himself, that is, to actually do it. On the other hand, the name alludes to the region of the brand’s birth, located in Neuchâtel, Switzerland – Done in Neuchâtel.

Mr. Clottu has already successfully established three watch collections, which are called Classic, Skeleton and Automatic. The story of this unusual Swiss brand DONE watches began in 2016, with the “MECHANICA ME1A” from the Classic series, a sporty-elegant everyday watch with a small second at 9 o’clock and a beautifully decorated hand-wound caliber.

Automatic three-handers, on the other hand, are significantly more timeless, with only a classic date window at 3 o’clock and available in 40mm (men’s) and 36mm (women’s) diameters. For those who prefer something a little more extravagant on their wrist, Clottu has developed the elegant Skeleton models, which boast an open caliber and DLC coating.

I believe many of you are wondering how a DONE watches are made? From the heart of the brand, the atelier located in Cormondreche, each DONE project usually starts from a dream, an idea for which the founder of the brand feels a passionate desire or simply from one of the suggestions of DONE watches customers. The DONE team is always ready to hear new ideas and constantly study the market and put their ideas and visions on paper. In the end, the important thing is the desire for creativity, which has been successfully driving this young and visionary watch brand for years.

With more than 20 years of experience in the business, Mr. Clottu and his team have a large number of partners from a wide range of businesses who are passionate about their fields and enable them to achieve the best possible result, be it the choice of movement, finish, case or making a certain type of bracelet.

After the research phase, the DONE watches team takes action by putting all their skills at the service of the product. Thanks to the latest 3D design technologies, the DONE watches team models the watch as a whole and makes all plans in-house. Since the founder of the team and the brand itself grew up and matured in a region described as the cradle of watchmaking, this fundamental aspect of the world of watchmaking simply cannot be ignored at any time. Quality is an integral part of the Swiss DNA, be it in components, workmanship or service itself.

To ensure that the final production meets expectations, the DONE watches team conducts numerous tests. Whether it is at the design level through prototyping or in pre-production for functionality and finishing, the DONE team does everything possible to obtain impeccable quality and the DONE team will never neglect this at the expense of selling price.

In today’s fashion story, I have the great honor and pleasure to present you the newest model of the DONE watch MECHANICA B03 in a special limited edition of 50 pieces. After the great sales success of the MECHANICA B01 and MECHANICA B02 models, the DONE brand is pleased to present the MECHANICA B03 model at this year’s Time to Watches.

The MECHANICA B03 model uses the same aesthetic codes as its predecessors, but in shades
clearer and more concrete. Its silver movement brings a beautiful depth to this watch which then fully reveals its movement in complete transparency. The B03 proudly displays its case diameter of 43.8 mm with an overall thickness of 10.9 mm. Because it is extremely thin and light, trust me I forgot I had this watch on my wrist.

When I discovered this convenience, I realized that the high quality of the execution of its components stands out, both in terms of the level of construction of the case, as well as in the “in-house” manual-wound caliber itself. The founder’s main motto when creating this new DONE model was: “True beauty comes from within!”. Therefore, the new MECHANICA B03 model has the famous basic movement ETA 6497-1 due to its reliability and precision, in this model processed in a skeletonized cut of bridges and a modern design. This watch is the result of dedicated work where we obtained exceptional design results in order to harmonize the whole for a clean and timeless result.

Technical Information:

Case Diameter: 43,8mm

Case Thickness: 10,9mm

Case Material: Grade 5 Titanium

Water Resistance: 10 ATM (100m)

Crystals: Saphire, anti reflective coating

Movement: Skeleton, ETA 6497-1, hand-winding, design done in house

Today we continue the story of the ecommerce platform MYTHERESA, as well as the brands available on this platform. I believe many of you have heard about MYTHERESA shopping platform on Mr.M blog, but I would like to introduce you to this electronic fashion paradise. MYTHERESA is one of the leading global luxury e-commerce platforms operating in over 130 countries. Founded as a boutique in 1987, MYTHERESA launched online in 2006 and offers ready-to-wear, shoes, bags and accessories for women, men and children, as well as lifestyle products.

The MYTHERESA online store was founded in 2006 by Susanne and Christoph Botschen and is connected to the multi-brand store in Munich (formerly the THERESA store). In 2014, the THERESA store and mytheresa.com were acquired by the American luxury retailer Neiman Marcus for €150 million, giving Neiman Marcus greater access to international customers and strengthening their e-commerce technology.

During Neiman Marcus’ bankruptcy in 2020, the company began the process of spinning off Mytheresa as an independent entity. In January 2019, Mytheresa launched a children’s clothing category, and in January 2020, Mytheresa Men was launched. In May 2022, a new homeware and lifestyle category followed. In 2022, Mytheresa expanded its luxury offering to include home decor and lifestyle products.

The novelty they presented this year is the launch of certified second-hand watches from over 25 luxury brands, such as Audemars Piguet and Cartier, in cooperation with the Swiss jewelry and watch company Bucherer. As a global retailer, Mytheresa operates in 8 languages: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese and Korean.

In today’s post, you will see some fashion pieces from Brunello Cucinelli brand that you can find on the MYTHERESA online shopping platform.

Fashion pieces from the Brunello Cucinelli collection are made so that they can last for seasons and years with the guarantee that you can leave something of exceptional quality to your descendants with a timeless cut that will always be fashionable. Each manufactured piece is designed so that it does not follow blind trends, but on the contrary remains its own and consistent with the style of timeless elegance and refinement. Brunello Cucinelli is a brand that cherishes the values of “quiet luxury”, that’s why you’ll never see an aggressive brand logo on their clothes, leather goods or other fashion accessories, but the design and material will tell the story for themselves.

Brunello Cucinelli is an Italian luxury fashion brand that sells menswear, womenswear and accessories in Europe, North America and East Asia. The company was founded by Mr. Brunello Cucinelli in 1978. Mr. Cucinelli started his fashion house in 1978 specializing in Mongolian cashmere clothing for women. Today, the company owns 94 of the 124 stores worldwide. A few years ago, more precisely in January 2017, the company launched its online web store.

Mr. Cucinelli controls and manages the brand through Fedone Srl. Cucinelli’s family fund owns 57% of the company’s shares, and has also set up a special fund for the benefit of his daughters, Camilla and Carolina, to guarantee the proper handover of his eponymous company. This is an inspiring fashion story about a family.

An impressive fact is that the company headquarters is located in a 14th-century castle on top of a hill in the middle of Umbria, an area known as the “green heart” of Italy. Brunello Cucinelli donates 20% of profits to its charitable foundation and pays workers wages that are 20% higher than the fashion industry average. Also interesting information is that the employees of the company have extremely flexible working hours and that e-mails are not allowed after working hours. This is one of the few fashion houses that have such good working conditions, which is commendable in today’s age of classical capitalism.

My outfit today is adorned with two pieces of clothing from the latest Brunello Cucinelli SS24 collection, which are this beautiful colorful shirt and light jeans. The shirt is something completely new and unusual than I’m used to seeing in Brunello Cucinelli collections and I especially liked this unusual combination of colors, as well as the abstract print itself, I just wanted to have a shirt like this. In addition to the interesting design, this shirt is of exceptional quality made from a combination of high-quality cotton and silk. Jeans are something I really love to wear and I usually have darker jeans, but when I saw these cropped jeans made from faded light denim I could picture myself in them. They have a lot of elastin, which is ideal for everyday activities.

Today’s fashion adventure continues with old well-known friends of Mr.M blog – Fratelli Rossetti. This Italian footwear brand that I’m sure everyone recognizes 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.

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: BreraBrera SportHobo SportYachtLa Giusta

In today’s post, I present one of the iconic Brera models. Brera is the bohemian quarter of Milan where, in the sixties of the last century, sculptors, painters and writers struggled to leave their mark with a new language and new forms. The liberal and cosmopolitan spirit was the source of inspiration for “Brera”, a moccasin with tassels, a style revolution in a country that is just rediscovering its joy of life. Brera combines different materials and colors as a true work of art. The special composition of materials and shapes makes moccasins a successful chapter in the history of Fratelli Rossetti.

Today you have the opportunity to see a special summer version of the famous Brera loafers in shades of blue, made of soft closed-weave material. Special high-quality processing and production. These moccasins have a hand-dyed leather sole. The shoes are handmade in Italy, like all other Fratelli Rossetti shoes.

Biagini is one of those traditional Italian artisanal brands that has managed to easily develop and become recognizable throughout Europe and the world without losing its authenticity. Founded in 1968, it is a real family project in which everyone has a part of the credit for the great success because the soul of this brand is made up of people, starting with the founder Alberto Amidei, who takes care of production supervision, his wife Enza, who is in charge of quality control, and both have passed their passion on to their three children: daughter Elisa, who takes care of the company and commercial management, and Valentina, who is responsible for the development of the women’s collection, while son Luca, takes care of the management of the small leather goods department and the development of the men’s collection.

The Biagini brand is rooted in the tradition of leather craftsmanship and continues to constantly conduct thorough research into materials, which are locally produced and specially hand-painted according to the brand’s conceptual designs. In addition to respecting the heritage, the brand carries a truly contemporary creative soul. Biagini’s creative team play with geometries, such as the iconic curved lines inspired by waves, experiment with textures, be it soft hood, raw canvas, python or crocodile leather, have fun with color, exploring a palette of neutral tones as well as a palette of bright hues .

What is the story of this unusual prestigious brand of leather goods? Biagini, a brand born in Bologna in 1968, originally called “Silvano Biagini”, was acquired in 1999 by the Modenese Amidei family.

Eclectic, vibrant and timeless, this brand is evolving, introducing a men’s collection in 2009 and 2013, changing headquarters, expanding its production facilities and creating a showroom, inspired by Italian design in the 60s and 70s, a period in which the spirit of the Biagini brand received its true and true form.

FAY: Italian Style combining Tradition with Quality…

My dear fashionistas, welcome to a new fashion story on the Mr.M blog. We start today’s fashion adventure with new friends of Mr.M blog – FAY. Maybe this brand sounds unfamiliar to you, but if I mention the Tod’s brand, then many of you will recognize the brand because you had the opportunity to get to know this luxury Italian brand better over the past years on the Mr.M blog.

Tod’s S.p.A. is a company specializing in the production of footwear, clothing and fashion accessories with its brands Tod’s, Hogan, Fay and Roger Vivier. This fashion story is the result of the work and effort of the Della Valle family.

The history of the brand dates back to the early 1980s in the USA, when Diego and Andrea Della Valle discovered work jackets worn by the Maine fire department. Models of legendary jackets forged in the USA, cooled in fashionable Italy, Realizing the potential, they took over the Fay brand, a specialized manufacturer of technical clothing for fishermen and firefighters, bringing it to Italy with a very clear idea: to adapt work-wear to the urban environment.

Fay started its fashion story as a menswear brand, but along the way experienced a magical evolution in the womenswear market, winning the hearts of women around the world who always know how to appreciate a soft feminine cut, as well as the ability to adapt to any body type without losing sight of quality and class .

Fay work jackets became a great solution for city life, and soon rose to cult status in capitals around the world: “Fay 4 Ganci“. The constantly reworked iconic jacket is now followed by a clothing line, made recognizable by its innovative materials and timeless authentic Italian outerwear features. “Gancio” – a cult and easily recognizable symbol of the world of work-wear – expresses an always current attitude to the outdoors. It takes pride of place in durable, versatile and timeless clothing.

Fay Archive – The brand’s journey began in 2019, fusing the true spirit of American work-wear with innate Italian style. The Fay Archive goes back to Fay’s DNA, celebrating her origins and expanding them to suit every conceivable type of adventure, from city life to the great outdoors.

The fashion group Tod’s is known for its national and international socially responsible projects of sustainable development. One of the most famous projects is “Tod’s for the Colosseum” – the restoration of the Colosseum, a symbol of Italian history.

The intervention plan for the restoration of the Colosseum is a project commissioned by the Delegate Commissioner for the Archaeological Areas of Rome and Ostia Antica, in collaboration with the Special Group for the Protection of the Colosseum and the Archaeological Area of Rome, and was implemented thanks to the selfless support of Tod’s Group. The first phase of the works has been completed and included the renovation of the northern and southern facades, covering an area of about 13,300 square meters and the replacement of the arch closing system with the construction of new gates.

The renovation plan will continue with the renovation of the basement of the Colosseum, the standardization and implementation of the system and the construction of a service center that enables the execution of additional support activities for visitors to this cultural monument.

The second phase of the works, which began in December 2018, under the leadership of the new autonomous institute Parco Archeologico del Colosseo, included the area of the hypogea, a “monument within a monument” a kind of amphitheater that is located below the arena and was invisible to spectators in ancient times . More than 80 people participated in the restoration work, including archaeologists, restorers, architects, engineers and other experts. At the end of the works, a 160-meter-long promenade was installed, accessible to all visitors, which gave visitors the opportunity to see a hitherto unexplored part of the Colosseum that was not feasible before.

Tod’s as a brand stood out for its quality leather and models that come from artisanal shoemakers. Mr. Diego Della Valle’s idea was to create a shoe suitable for both formal and informal occasions, with a casual, comfortable, simple but refined taste. On the other hand, FAY stood out with its refined sports elegance and jackets that the whole world loved.

Today, the FAY brand represents the pinnacle of Italian fashion and, in addition to work jackets, produces clothing, knitwear and fashion accessories that have found their place in the hearts of celebrities across Hollywood. My outfit today is decorated with a yellow quilted jacket, a summer knitted T-shirt and trousers from the new FAY’s SS24 collection. The jacket is a classic timeless model and can always be found in the FAY collection.

Lanvin is a French luxury fashion house based in Paris. Founded in 1889 by Jeanne Lanvin, it is the oldest French fashion house still in operation. Since 2018, it has been a subsidiary of the Lanvin Group based in Shanghai. The House of Lanvin was named after its founder Jeanne Lanvin in 1889. Lanvin was founded in 1867 and opened its first store in rue du Marche Saint Honore in 1885.

Lanvin made clothes for her daughter Marie-Blanche de Polignac, which began to attract the attention of many wealthy people, who were looking for creations for their children. Soon Lanvin was making dresses for their mothers, who were included in the clientele of her new boutique on rue Faubourg Saint-Honore in Paris. In 1909, Lanvin joined the Syndicat de la Couture, marking her formal status as a couturier. The Lanvin logo was inspired by a photograph taken of Jeanne Lanvin while attending a ball with her daughter in 1907. As Albert Elbaz said, “It is not a lion and it is not a horse. It’s mother and daughter, I find the logo very emotional.” Since 1923, the Lanvin empire has included a paint factory in Nanterre.
