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.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    [Men say:] “Don’t you know that we are your natural protectors?” But what is a woman afraid of on a lonely road after dark? The bears and wolves are all gone; there is nothing to be afraid of now but our natural protectors.
    Frances A. Griffin, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 19, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)

    It’s nice to be a part of history but people should get it right. I may not be perfect, but I’m bloody close.
    John Lydon (formerly Johnny Rotten)

    Jesus Christ belonged to the true race of the prophets. He saw with an open eye the mystery of the soul. Drawn by its severe harmony, ravished with its beauty, he lived in it, and had his being there. Alone in all history he estimated the greatness of man.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
