The pinstriped suit has always been the symbol of menswear tailoring.
Less ostentatious than a striped suit, its name derives from the thin lines traced by the tailor on the fabric, sign of the most authentic craftsman tradition.
From iconic Hollywood films that have seen Al Pacino in Scarface or Robert De Niro in the Godfather, to tv series such as Peaky Blinders, its image is linked to something extremely formal, mainly daily and always attractive.
Normally, the pinstripe is not a jacket or trouser fabric, but used for suits. Considering that the pandemic has brought about an increased request for informality, it’s not unusual to find pinstriped trousers, perhaps even in models with a drawstring waist for an easier look.
