I've always been drawn to the elegance and practicality of Italian clothing—there's something about the tailoring and materials that feels just right. As I start a small online project, I'm looking to connect with people who appreciate the same and might know trusted sources or makers of high-quality Italian apparel. Not big brands—just honest craftsmanship. Would love to hear your thoughts!

Totally understand where you're coming from! I run a vintage-focused store, and some of my best stock comes from small family-run ateliers around Florence and Naples. They may not advertise much online, but their craftsmanship is incredible. Try looking into Italian textile fairs or contacting local fashion schools—sometimes their alumni offer custom pieces that are true gems.

I'm really inspired by this thread. I've recently started sourcing pieces through antique markets in smaller Italian towns—places less touched by tourist traffic. Sometimes the best finds come from vendors who've been collecting for decades. Also worth checking regional cooperatives that support local artisans—they often collaborate with old-school tailors.

I totally relate to your appreciation for authentic Italian craftsmanship. One thing that helped me was exploring curated wholesale sources that specialize in italian vintage. It's a great way to access genuine pieces in bulk without relying on big commercial names. Perfect for small, quality-driven projects like yours.
