Luca Avitabile
Luca Avitabile is a Naples shirtmaker who cuts each customer their own pattern and sews nearly everything by hand, mostly meeting clients in London and New York.
Luca Avitabile makes bespoke shirts in Naples with a very high proportion of hand sewing, cutting an individual pattern for each customer. Most of the business is conducted through visits to London, New York and elsewhere.
A travelling shirtmaker
Shirtmaking travels better than tailoring: measurements and a trial shirt can be handled in one visit, and subsequent orders need no fitting at all. That is why a small Neapolitan workshop can serve customers across several countries in a way a bespoke tailor cannot.
The shirts are made in the Neapolitan manner (hand-attached collar, hand-set sleeve, hand-worked buttonholes) with an individually cut pattern retained for reorders.
The service
An individually cut paper pattern, a trial shirt, and shirts made with hand-attached collars, hand-set sleeves and hand-worked buttonholes. The pattern is kept and refined.
Most orders are taken on visits to London and New York rather than in Naples, which suits shirtmaking better than tailoring because a shirt needs fewer fittings.
The Neapolitan shirt
Soft collar, light interlining or none, a sleeve set with gathering at the shoulder, and a cut that follows the body without gripping. It is designed to be worn with a soft jacket and frequently without a tie.
Worn under a structured English coat it can look insubstantial, which is a matter of matching rather than quality.
What hand-work does to a shirt
Hand-attached collars and sleeves, hand-sewn buttonholes and hand-set shoulder seams are not decorative. A hand-attached collar can be eased around the neck rather than fed through a machine straight, and the result sits differently under a jacket: flatter at the back, closer at the front.
Whether that justifies the price is a judgement each buyer makes. What is not in question is that it is a different object from a machine-made shirt, and that the difference is visible in how it sits rather than only in the finishing.
