Puppytooth is a scaled-down houndstooth, built on the same broken twill weave construction but at a fraction of the size, producing a pattern that reads as a textured near-solid from any normal viewing distance. The detail here is only apparent on close inspection: a puppytooth in dark grey ground with both burgundy and dark blue woven through the pattern, a level of colour complexity in the cloth that is characteristic of the finest Italian suiting fabrics and entirely invisible until you look for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a vintage Kiton piece produced for the American market and sold through Bergdorf Goodman in New York. Kiton has historically tailored its American-market production to suit the preferences of that customer, which in this period meant a straighter, less Neapolitan silhouette than the house's domestic Italian production. The result is a suit that carries Kiton's cloth quality and construction standard within a fit that departs from the typical spalla camicia, soft-shoulder Neapolitan template. For a collector of the brand, that distinction is precisely the point of the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe jacket closes at 2.5 buttons on notch lapels, with flap pockets, a ticket pocket, and full lining throughout. The trousers run wide and straight from a double pleat, finishing with a turn-up at the hem. That configuration, double pleat with wide straight leg and turn-up, is the correct trouser for a suit of this vintage and silhouette, and it reads today as a considered vintage fit rather than a dated one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Bergdorf Goodman Kiton suit from this period in this condition and colourway is a specific find for a specific buyer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kiton","offers":[{"title":"54 IT \/ 44 US \/ Extra Large \/ Dark Grey \/ 100% Wool","offer_id":59369658515788,"sku":"SA02801","price":698.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0653\/6187\/1105\/files\/DBB52ABC-0896-43C1-8753-DF9544417CA1.png?v=1792585690","url":"https:\/\/sartorialistamsterdam.com\/products\/kiton-dark-grey-fine-wool-puppytooth-vintage-straight-fit-suit","provider":"Sartorialista","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
