00:00 Neopolitan Style Introduction
In menswear today, Neapolitan style is famed for its effortless sprezzatura and handwork, lightweight, airy fabrics, and casualness. At places like Pitti Uomo, it’s closely associated with dandies and flamboyant gentlemen. Typically, it features bold statements and colors; and it’s just the reminiscence of fun and Southern Italy.
02:13 Why Does Neoolitan Style Matter?
It has gotten quite famous. It is cited many times in brochures, online, when people talk about things, and so, as someone interested in classic menswear, it’s really important to understand.
03:55 The History of Neopolitan Style
In 1861, Naples joined the Kingdom of Italy, which, of course, today is a republic. While the area around Naples used to be well-known for its agricultural impact, it also developed to be a hub for clothing.
The late-19th and early-20th centuries, Naples was known to produce high-quality garments. The clothes produced followed styles of other nations; had influences from Vienna, from England, and from France.
07:30 General Hallmarks of Neopolitan Style
Typically, Neapolitan style means bolder colors. The fabrics are certainly open weave. So, while a British blazer is maybe made of a surge fabric, the traditional Neapolitan will be made of a hopsack.
Neapolitan tailoring is not about accuracy - it’s more about comfort, it’s about the visible handwork, and something that is stylistically and aesthetically pleasing.

So, in conclusion, I hope we have shown that we’re not o’ guappo ‘e cartone - meaning “a braggart made of cardboard” - when it comes to Neapolitan style.
