ORNELLA VANONI - L'APPUNTAMENTO!

What better way to wrap up another impeccable week of Pitti Uomo Firenze..

Ornella Vanoni is one of the most credited pop singers of Italy. She is known for her sophisticated pop style. In addition to her singing career, Ornella Vanoni was active in other arts, starring in stage and TV shows, movies, and posing nude for the Italian edition of Playboy magazine. The inclusion of her former hit "L'Appuntamento" (1970) on the Ocean's Twelve soundtrack sparked a worldwide renewal of interest in Ornella Vanoni.

Don't worry! Many more pictures from Pitti Uomo to come in the next few days on fashionspam!

BEHIND THE BRAND: BRIONI!

MR PORETER travelled to Brioni's workshop in Italy to film the making of the midnight blue Brioni tuxedo which is exclusive to MR PORTER this season.

This season MR PORTER has worked with legendary Italian tailoring brand Brioni to create a dinner jacket of what is, we believe, incomparable quality. Sir Henry Royce, co-founder of Rolls-Royce, once described his approach to building cars: "Strive for perfection in everything you do. Take the best that exists and make it better. When it does not exist, design it. Accept nothing nearly right or good enough." 

Brioni approached the creation of our exclusive dinner jacket with Sir Henry's attitude in mind. The result is the last word in contemporary elegance: a midnight-blue tux consisting of a one-button, peak-lapel jacket with jetted pockets and grosgrain trim on the lapels, and flat-front trousers featuring that same grosgrain trim running down the outside seams. To mark its arrival on the site, MR PORTER visited Brioni's headquarters in Penne, Abruzzo, to make a film about the brand's past, present and future. 

''One of the most telling moments of the shoot came when we were filming one of the women who cut and sew the jacket buttonholes. Earlier in the day I had been concerned about how much of the noise of passing cars and the hum of air conditioning would be picked up by the microphone. It says everything about Brioni's handcraft methods that the only audible sound was that of a sharp chisel being knocked through one buttonhole at a time; there was no machinery on the factory floor to interfere with our recording.''
