...They have more of an English cut or line, yet they are made in Italy and made in a very light way. If you wear a real English suit, it will really give you a backache. It looks great, but it's very stiff in the construction, and it'll kill your shoulders. We've become a little spoiled with menswear in particular because, of course, we've come off a period in the '70s and '80s when Armani, which is very soft, dominated menswear.
