5 questions to Lino Ieluzzi
How old were you when you first found out about your passion for clothes?
I found my passion for clothes since I was very young, all the other friends use to look at soccer, cars and motorbikes. I thought to impress girls you have to be different and elegant so I started to wear jackets very young and was successful!
How would you describe your style?
Different coloured with right accessory and for having your personal style you have to break the rules in the right way (Not too much).
Where do you find inspiration?
From the passion that I have inside.
Name one well-dressed person that has influenced your life and taste (if there is one)?
One and only Giovanni Agnelli.
What do you think about fashion in general?
I do not like fashion because people chose only brand or labels and don’t build their personal style.
5 Questions to Valentino Ricci
How old were you when you first found out about your passion for clothes?
I had bought in a shop of fabrics a cut of chalked brown flannel and for the first time I crossed the threshold of a tailoring for man where I commissioned a custom suit for me: I was sixteen years old.
How would you describe your style?
Original contemporary classic style.
Where do you find inspiration?
I find the best inspiration on those old people sitting on benches in gardens and/or walking aroud the South Italy villages.
Name one well-dressed person that has influenced your life and taste (if there is one) ?
l’Avvocato Agnelli.
What do you think about fashion in general?
I think it has taken a wrong direction and you are following a wrong business: the business of that who finances fashion itself instead of final consumer’s one. If the latter were considered much more, things would improve.
5 frågor Lalle Johnson
Hur gammal var du när du upptäckte din passion för kläder?
Jag var väl 12-13 år, jag och min bästa kompis var helt klädgalna.
Hur skulle du beskriva din stil?
Classic with a twist
Var finner du inspiration?
Resor, film, foto och hos mina kompisar och bekanta.
Nämn en välklädd person som har influerat ditt liv och smak.
Cary Grant och Fred Astaire när bilder togs "off camera" samt Gianni Agnelli och Ruby Rubriosa. Låter lite dammigt kanske, men tar man deras stil och moderniserar upp det 50% så blir det bra.
Och till sist, Vad du tycker du om mode och trender?
Det är något som jag använder till en viss del när jag jobbar förstås, men för det mesta så föredrar jag form och vackra material, det funkar alltid, ivarje fall för mig.
5 frågor till Luca Rubinacci
How old were you when you first found out about your passion for clothes?
Since I was a kid I always had a passion for clothing and style grown step by step, during my experiences, and is still growing.
How would you describe your style?
No one has the same style; every one has to feel what they are wearing and when you start to does this u make your personal style. By my side my style is very open, impossible to describes, I love colours’ combination, but, every day I can think different. What I try is to wear the formal suit in a young style, feel always free in what I’m wearing, without thinking too much. Only enjoying it.
Where do you find inspiration?
Everywhere !!!!! Everything and everyone in all different situations, get me inspired… details, little things in what I see, give some to me. After, is just, how can I translate this on me???
Name one well-dressed person that has influenced your life and taste (if there is one) ?
As I said before there is no one in particular, everyone can influence me.
And last, What do you think about fashion in general?
The world of fashion is everywhere; there aren’t new things to discover or new model to invent… reason why the entire big brands are going back to the “bespoke " service. Now what I can say is that everyone has to discover their personal style without taking care too much on what or which colour is in vogue now…we have to go in this way, with the help of people, like me, that love what they do, not just because is a job but because, first of all, is passion.
