History
Attolini is considered the creator of what is known as Neopolitan style suits. Italian suit makers today regard Vincenzo Attolini as the originator of the soft-shouldered, high-armhole, suit that remains the standard of Neapolitan tailored clothing.
Vincenzo Attolini's son Cesare, took over the line in the 1960s and transformed Attolini into a modern day enterprise. Cesare profited from the fame his father gained around the world to build an exclusive mens tailoring company.
Today, three generations of Attolini men run the company. Master Tailor Cesare Attolini still oversees quality control. while the company is run by Vincenzo's two grandsons Giuseppe and Massimiliano Attolini.

“We are told that men protect us; that they are generous, even chivalric in their protection. Gentlemen, if your protectors were women, and they took all your property and your children, and paid you half as much for your work, though as well or better done than your own, would you think much of the chivalry which permitted you to sit in street-cars and picked up your pocket- handkerchief?”
