The history
of the Sartoria Dalcuore
At sixteen, Luigi Dalcuore left for Germany and travelled across Europe to train as a tailor.
When he returned to Naples at the age of eighteen, he began working at Del Duca, one of the most famous tailors in the city. In this remarkable establishment, he learns the principles that will become his trademark and that he has already transmitted to the next generation:
simplicity, ease, relevance, curiosity and the perpetual search for style, techniques and materials.
At twenty-six, having become a master tailor, Luigi Dalcuore opened his first personal business in Via Cervantes before settling in Via Duomo between 1970 and 1990.
From now on, Sartoria Dalcuore is installed in Via Caracciolo in the Chiaia district and employs about twenty craftsmen led by Cristina Dalcuore, daughter of the founder, and her husband Damiano Annunziato.
The bottom line about
Sartoria Dalcuore suit jackets
Ultimately, Sartoria Dalcuore's bespoke and made-to-measure suit jackets remarkably combine an elegant construction with the fluidity so characteristic of Neapolitan style. The giro aperto shoulder, the small armhole and the spacious sleeve head offer an unexpected supplement of comfort and movement. Finally, the generous lapels, and a collar generally higher than British or French tailors, have the particularity to slender the silhouette and to enhance the appearance of the Gentlemen owning the handmade creations of this historical tailor.
