...synonymous with his hometown of Naples as are Marinella ties and Margherita pizza. The only difference is that Rubinacci makes bespoke suits, not pies. His claim to fame, as clients like Jacob Rothschild, Luca Cordero di Montezemolo and Barry Diller will tell you, is the loose-fitting, high-armhole Neapolitan jacket.
