Discover the Brioni Dark Green Vintage Donegal Tweed Shooting Suit, originally sold by Ratti Boutique. Ratti has been among the most respected multi-brand luxury retailers in Italy since its founding in 1945, the Pesaro and Bologna boutique's selection of houses representing a considered edit of European tailoring at its highest level. A Brioni shooting suit passing through Ratti's selection carries that provenance alongside the Roman house that made it.

Donegal Tweed originates in County Donegal on Ireland's northwest coast, a cloth produced from locally sourced wool and characterised by the coloured neps woven throughout the ground, small tufts of contrasting fibre distributed through the weave that create the speckled surface the cloth is immediately recognisable for. Here the dark green ground carries white and orange neps, the two contrasting tones distributed across the surface in the uneven, organic manner specific to this cloth, the speckle giving the tweed a depth and liveliness that a plain cloth at the same colour would entirely lack. The dry, slightly rough hand of the tweed is as much a part of its identity as its appearance, the cloth carrying a weight and a texture that speaks to its working origins before any tailoring is considered.

That Brioni produced a shooting suit in Donegal Tweed makes this a collector's piece in the most direct sense. The Roman house has always been associated with the finest smooth-faced wools and the most formal expressions of the tailored suit, and a Norfolk-inspired shooting jacket in Irish tweed represents a departure from that identity significant enough that examples are genuinely rare. The jacket draws from the Norfolk tradition in its bellows pockets, the accordion pleat construction set into the side pockets expanding freely for the movement shooting demands, a welted chest pocket completing the front configuration. The jacket is fully lined, the Roman shoulder present beneath the tweed's rustic exterior. The trousers are cut straight with a double pleat at the rise and turn-ups at the hem, the generous construction in keeping with the suit's vintage proportions and country intentions.

A Brioni shooting suit in Donegal Tweed, sold through Ratti, is a specific and unrepeatable combination. It will not come around again.

Opgericht in Rome door het visionaire duo Nazareno Fonticoli, een Meesterkleermaker, en zijn zakelijke partner Gaetano Savini, vestigde Brioni al snel een reputatie als de toonaangevende sartoriale bestemming voor de veeleisende Romeinse heer. De samenwerking tussen Fonticoli en Savini was een samensmelting van technische vaardigheid en creatief ondernemerschap die het erfgoed van Brioni zou definiëren en vandaag de dag nog steeds de drijvende kracht achter het merk is.
