History
Attolini is considered the creator of what is known as Neopolitan style suits. Italian suit makers today regard Vincenzo Attolini as the originator of the soft-shouldered, high-armhole, suit that remains the standard of Neapolitan tailored clothing.
Vincenzo Attolini's son Cesare, took over the line in the 1960s and transformed Attolini into a modern day enterprise. Cesare profited from the fame his father gained around the world to build an exclusive mens tailoring company.
Today, three generations of Attolini men run the company. Master Tailor Cesare Attolini still oversees quality control. while the company is run by Vincenzo's two grandsons Giuseppe and Massimiliano Attolini.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“I believe that in the history of art and of thought there has always been at every living moment of culture a “will to renewal.” This is not the prerogative of the last decade only. All history is nothing but a succession of “crises”Mof rupture, repudiation and resistance.... When there is no “crisis,” there is stagnation, petrification and death. All thought, all art is aggressive.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
“In nature, all is useful, all is beautiful. It is therefore beautiful, because it is alive, moving, reproductive; it is therefore useful, because it is symmetrical and fair. Beauty will not come at the call of a legislature, nor will it repeat in England or America its history in Greece. It will come, as always, unannounced, and spring up between the feet of brave and earnest men.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“In front of these sinister facts, the first lesson of history is the good of evil. Good is a good doctor, but Bad is sometimes a better.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
