Great clothing embodies three virtues: it serves a purpose, fits elegantly, and is made of high-quality materials. At Napoli’s, we deliver on all three virtues with every item in our shop, including complimentary hand-tailoring to ensure a perfect fit. Each season offers an opportunity to express a new sense of style while meeting the challenges of the weather. We would be delighted to curate outfits for any occasion, whether it’s a family outing for lunch and a trip to the corn maze, a cozy ensemble for an evening walk through the falling leaves, or an elegant look for a nighttime charity gala.
Autumn provides an excellent opportunity to experiment with layering, one of the most exciting ways to build an outfit. At Napoli’s, we recommend starting with a base layer: choose your favorite shirt, denim, or trousers. The color and texture of this item will lay the foundation for the rest of your ensemble. For instance, consider an Eton blue basic shirt, one of the most versatile pieces available. Wear it under a thin wool blend zip-up from Gran Sasso. The sweater’s mock-neck emphasizes the shirt’s collar and creates a comfortable and flattering frame for the face. Complete the look with a stylish patterned scarf or a windbreaker on cooler nights.
Heavier fabrics are optimal for pants in the fall. Beyond denim, which is always a solid choice, consider traditional wool pants, cashmere, flannel, or heavy cotton chinos. When walking down woodland trails to enjoy the changing leaves, pull on a pair of leather lace-up boots or chukkas. If you’re sticking to the city, try a pair of suede ankle boots or leather sneakers.
Does it sound a bit complicated? That’s the beauty of service from a professional clothier, a title our team at Napoli’s wears proudly. We eagerly anticipate the new dressing opportunities each season provides and strive to pass this knowledge along to our clients through personalized recommendations and outfit construction, complete with reference photos. Our combined expertise allows us to adapt to every situation, including last-minute emergencies. We are always happy to expedite services at no cost to you.
Our Made-to-Measure program also evolves with the season. Autumn marks the arrival of a new wave of fabrics. In addition to classic flannels and heavy wools, we offer colorful tweeds, cashmeres, and jersey stretch materials. The jersey is especially perfect for fall; its extra weight keeps you comfortable in the cold, and its stretch properties are ideal for unrestricted movement, perfect for various activities. The colorful nature of the autumn season lends itself well to wearing hues that coordinate with the outdoors, such as rich burnt oranges, burgundy reds, and deep blues.
Discover the perfect blend of style and comfort this autumn at Napoli’s Clothing & Shoes, where every piece is crafted to elevate your wardrobe and suit your lifestyle seamlessly.
