"In Italy, we say, 'fare sempre bella figura,' meaning 'always giving a good impression' – that remains my rule for myself and for my clients."
– Paolo Barone
At Barone Antica Sartoria we make getting compliments for our clients the norm of everyday life. There is nothing like a man wearing a well-tailored suit, exuding confidence and elegance.
Our suits are made entirely from scratch and built to complement the specific body type of our clients. The right fit combined with a quality fabric makes a Barone suit the best “weapon” our clients have in their wardrobe.
What differentiates a Barone suit from its competitors and off-the-rack suits is the meticulous attention to detail that goes into the making of every suit. We take more than 30 measurements and elaborate them to create a unique pattern. Our objective is always to design a suit that conceals the shortcomings and emphasizes the assets of the wearer.
We don’t stop at the right fit. We make suggestions and advise our clients on the style, the colors and the patterns, making certain the right choices for their needs are made. Being from Italy, a sense of style is instilled in us at an early age, which allows us to dress our clients with care and confidence, making sure they always make a bella figura, as we say in Italy.
We believe the custom tailoring experience should be unique, personal and most importantly, enjoyable. Our process begins with a consultation in the comfort of your home or office.
During our meeting, the blueprint of your suit is put together: measurements are taken, fabrics are selected, and the cut and details are determined. Each suit is hand-drawn, hand-cut and sewn according to our strict quality standards. A few weeks later, a second fitting is performed, allowing for any minor adjustments that may be needed. Once finished, your suits are then delivered to you in person.
We believe luxury starts with premium materials, so we insist on using only the finest fabrics crafted from the best mills in the world. The choice of material determines wear and appearance, while the canvass construction and hand finish guarantee fit and durability.
At Barone Antica Sartoria we definitely offer the ultimate shopping experience for a tailored wardrobe — from suits, sport coats, shirts, slacks and formalwear.
Hailing from Italy, Paolo Barone, founder of Barone Antica Sartoria, takes his commitment to creating exquisite custom suits for his clientele extremely seriously. “Italians are well-known for their attention to dressing well. We dress to impress. That remains a tradition in the Italian way of living and a standard I have for myself and for my clients,” said Barone.
Inspired by his father, whom Barone admired from an early age for his meticulous sense of style and the way he carried himself in his custom-made suits, Barone is not only passionate about his work, he sees it as an art form that can be tailored to individuals to make his creations truly their own. “I love ‘sculpting’ suits, much like a sculptor who sits down to create from a piece of marble. I create suits for my clients that reflect their personal style, from the fit to the fabric, down to the small details.”

Custom suiting is truly an art form. And like any great work of art, it requires the finest materials – in this case, it’s the fabric used in creating your suits. The quality of the fabric greatly influences the way it handles the needle and the performance of your suit – from its cut, to its drape, to its breathability, to its resistance to wrinkles and durability.
At Barone Antica Sartoria we source only the world’s finest fabrics from the world’s best mills, sourcing a majority of our fabrics from the Italian region. The result: strong, superior fabrics in a variety of patterns and colors with superior finishes.
Below are some of the mills we source our fabrics from.
