      Too late....




      damn, he really made that collection sound like something completely amazing. I try to challenge myself and visualize what he's describing and I just hope it's something that is true to the description given. My one sartoria piece is just pure genius and I hope that Altieri has pushed even beyond that into a realm we couldn't even dream possible.




      ...I have to say that the "yes I have photos, no I won't show them to you" statement comes across a bit asshole-y.




      But c'est la vie. There is a(n) (unfortunate) amount of superiority complex that surrounds some of these brands and those with access in the retail forum it seem... it can't be all good it seems.




      The CCP fencing jacket is making me absolutely drool. Look for some pieces on the sale forum here this evening hehehe!

        I think he was just teasing in the email to me, he's a very nice guy! (I think the owner of the shop..) He'll probably be able to provide photos once he knows when/if the line is to be produced. It certainly does sound like a great collection though and the non-catwalk-like approach sounds like what Carol did with his river floating show. I'm sure the prices will be exorbant, so at least there's some time to save up eh? :)

        P.S. Yea the fencing jacket is unbelievable.

          agent l said that his s/s fencing jacket was practically the same as the new ones for this winter.

          stupid question, but is it pronounced m.a PLUS or m.a CROSS?
          Did you get and like the larger dick?

              [quote user="merz"]albert, what are the differences - so far as you're able to tell - between the spring/summer fencing jacket and the ones we've got for the winter season? I believe some person off of our forums had the s/s one as well, and the jacket was well-documented in this thread before he pulled an emoragequit? Since i'm going through the library service on this it seems i've a selection of past seasons to choose from..i sort of liked the fit of the spring/summer one better from what i saw..
              [/quote]




              Two key ones: Thicker leather and black instead of the gray/green. It makes me want the current fencing SOOOOOOOOOO badly! I need to make it work somehow. I need one. Even if it is my only purchase this season.




              The fit should be about the same. Carol holds pretty true in terms of his cut. It's just the tagged sizing that can differ somewhat from season to season....

                the pronunciation is "m a cross".




                if I remember rightly, in the first place it comes from the simplest signature, cross.





                if you take it as "m across", it's on the other side.......
                through to the other side to find something
                which goes with the original (cdiem) spirit of going deeply into research to reach a new product.

                  i used to pronounce it "m. a. plus", but taking cue from the websites i've seen, i believe it is "m. a. cross". ^ similarly, i just say maurizio amadei.

                    I really, really want the bag in the second picture on the left...wow. It's nice and simple yet just enough 'roughness' to it. Thanks for the pics Kev.

                        Karlo at Atelier calls it M A Plus. So do the reps at Alan B.

                              Not a big fan of the styling of this collection.... a bit TOO casual and those black/white pants.... yikes!




                              That hooded multi-fabric jacket/sweater in the first photo shows some promise and is that a shirt version of the aviator jacket I spy?




                              Lots more textures in this collection, although I did prefer the darker feel from before.




                              God the leather is outstanding.
