One of the most atmospheric Bespoke Trouser Makers in Naples is that of trouser-maker Cerrato, on the first floor of a building in the Spanish Quarter of town.
TRUE BESPOKE
EXCELLENT QUALITY
Bespoke Trouser Makers. Quality in trousers-making tends to come down to how thoroughly and precisely the swing is done: do buttons fall off; is the stitching so loose that lining starts to come away? Or, for instance, if a trouser-maker is asked to do a waistband that is wider than standard, will he use the same narrow lining, or cut an entirely new one from a full roll of canvas (as Marco does). When it comes to cutting, there are some small differences in style – or “handwriting”, as Marco puts in. “I tend to prefer a little more room around the top, the seat”, he says, “I hate it when the cloth pulls there. And then I would narrow the leg slightly more sharply below the knee”.
