THIS special version of the super limited edition EV6C05 handmade topcoat design is the only piece of its kind made by hand in the entire world. It was created exclusively from our original single-breasted 3-button notched-lapel classic long coat length pattern, from our extensive tailoring research, and cut using a pure Alashan Cashmere 2-ply 460 gram superlux coating fabric woven by the oldest woolen mill and most respected cashmere fabric makers in the world--Fratelli Piacenza 1733 Spa in Pollone, Biella-- combined with a fully-lined luxury lining story in an exclusive pure 16-momme silk raso Persian paisley print lining created only for us by the legendary Brenna family in Como, Italy--the world’s leading center for fine silk fabric creation--then specially hand dyed, washed and treated in our workrooms at Cavarzere Venezia using an intricate series of processes which required over 18 hours of painstaking expert work to achieve its beautiful colors, patina effects, shaping and incredible softness. The design features 

very special old-fashioned canvas horsehair front and collar interfacings totally hand-padstitched with over 1000 invisible hand stitches inside to give it its remarkable soft, natural roll line along lapels and collar,

real working handmade working buttonhole surgeon's cuff sleeves, hand-cut besom welt and flap pockets and tailored center vent, hidden lapel button which allows the coat to be buttoned all the way up for cooler weather or sportier styling, generous 2,5 centimeter seam allowances on major fitting seams that allow the coat to be altered and let out a full size larger than its original cut, impeccably finished interior with handsewn hems and closures, remarkable real horn button designs made for us in Parma, Italy by Claudio and Cinzia Fontana, the greatest living buttonmakers in the world today, and no less than 10 of our signature real hand-stitched buttonholes (that required 10-13 minutes to cut and sew each one) all done in pure silk Bozzolo Reale Seta Milan thread. The piece also features our world leading pure silk hand dyed label created exclusively for us by Mion SpA in Torreglia which is the first label in the luxury industry to completely eliminate plastic polyester yarns in it--beautifully attached entirely by hand using pure silk threads.

The EV6C05 was created exclusively from our original single-breasted 3-button notched-lapel classic long coat length pattern from our extensive tailoring research...

...and cut using a pure Alashan Cashmere 2-ply 460 gram superlux coating fabric woven by the oldest woolen mill and most respected cashmere fabric makers in the world--Fratelli Piacenza 1733 Spa in Pollone, Biella...

...combined with a fully-lined luxury lining story in an exclusive pure 16-momme silk raso Persian paisley print lining created only for us by the legendary Brenna family in Como, Italy--the world’s leading center for fine silk fabric creation--then specially hand dyed, washed and treated in our workrooms at Cavarzere Venezia using an intricate series of processes which required over 18 hours of painstaking expert work to achieve its beautiful colors, patina effects, shaping and incredible softness...

The design features very special old-fashioned canvas horsehair front and collar interfacings totally hand-padstitched with over 1000 invisible hand stitches inside to give it its remarkable soft, natural roll line along lapels and collar...

...and real handmade working buttonhole surgeon's cuff sleeves—a long running “code” symbol of jackets and coats made only for elite wardrobes... due to the rare and extreme sartorial skill sets and precision required to create them (there are very few tailors or brands left in the world who have the skill levels and know how to execute them, and their work is expensive)—come standard on this EV6C05 with its classic 3-button array impeccably executed allowing you to unbutton and roll up your sleeves for work, play or just quietly showing off a little.

... along with incredible pockets. When you put your hands in the pocket of this GBS supercoat you’ll feel the difference right away. The all hand cut tailored front besom flap and inside besom pockets required between 20 -30 minutes to expertly construct each one, and are all fully self-lined in the extremely expensive pure Alashan cashmere 2-ply fabric instead of skimping and using cheaper pocket lining materials like other luxury brands do. This long-time value approach to maximum comfort costs more as it uses more of the precious fabric but results in incredible comfort for you when you put your hands in the pockets of this coat. It can actually help reduce your stress and is part of the wonderful feel and experience of wearing the coat...

...generous 2,5 centimeter seam allowances on all major fitting seams that allow the coat to be altered and let out for long-term wear and service, impeccably finished interior with handsewn hems and closures and handcut center vent...

...plus, a hand stitched hidden lapel button and working lapel buttonhole which allows the coat to be buttoned all the way up for cooler weather or sportier styling...

...remarkable all handsewn real horn button designs made only for us by the world's greatest living buttonmakers--Claudio and Cinzia Fontana in Parma, Italy---and no less than 10 of our signature real hand-stitched buttonholes (that required 10-13 minutes to cut and sew each one) all done in pure silk Bozzolo Reale Seta Milan thread...

The piece also features our world leading pure silk hand dyed label created exclusively for us by Mion SpA in Torreglia which is the first label in the luxury industry to completely eliminate plastic polyester yarns in it--beautifully attached entirely by hand using pure silk threads--along with Fratelli Piacenza's own "Alashan Cashmere" official red label for additional proof of the incredible pure Alashan cashmere 2-ply coating fabric's authenticity...
