A car coat in double-cloth cotton from Prato — woven at 520 g/m² in two interlocked layers, kept whole rather than split, then lined. The weight is immediate when you lift it from the hanger. The challenge with a fabric this deliberate is the silhouette: too much structure and it fights the cloth, too little and the coat loses its shape. The raglan sleeve required the most patience — a construction that only reads as effortless when the seam lies perfectly flat across the shoulder, and not before. Until nothing remained that didn't need to be there.
