Curator's Description
Curator's DescriptionDiscover the Cesare Attolini Beige Wool, Cotton, Silk and Linen Checkered Sartorial Overshirt. The four-fibre blend addresses the overshirt's particular demands with a different contribution from each: wool providing the body and the drape that allows the piece to sit with the presence of a jacket rather than the lightness of a shirt, cotton adding structure and a dry hand that keeps the blend from becoming too soft to hold its line, silk introducing a quiet surface warmth and a luminosity that lifts the beige ground, and linen opening the weave to allow the overshirt to breathe freely across the range of temperatures it will be worn in. The check runs through this ground in the manner of a classic checkered cloth, the pattern giving the beige base a quiet structure and a surface interest without committing to the formality of a suiting cloth or the rusticity of a heavy country check, the scale and the tone calibrated for a piece that sits between a shirt and a jacket in its intention.
The shirt collar is the detail that most clearly places this piece in the overshirt category rather than the tailored jacket one, the soft, unfused collar sitting open at the neck with a naturalness that a notch or peak lapel does not allow, the construction entirely in keeping with the relaxed wearing context the Attolini overshirt is conceived for. Button closure runs the front. Four patch pockets are distributed across the front, two at the chest and two at the hips, each closed with a flap and a button, the pockets functional and present across the full surface of the overshirt in the manner of a workwear or military-inspired piece translated into a Neapolitan sartorial register. A single button closes the sleeve at the cuff, the construction simple and correct. The overshirt is entirely unlined, the blend sitting directly against whatever is worn beneath it.
Cesare Attolini makes an overshirt the way it makes a jacket: with the cloth and the construction receiving equal attention. In beige wool, cotton, silk and linen check, the result sits comfortably in both categories.
