If I can show American men, one on one, how they can improve, they are going to love me!” says Nedo Bellucci, New York’s messianic tailor to a wide-ranging celebrity clientele that includes Liam Neeson and Rupert Murdoch.

THEY SAY THAT GOOD things come to those who wait. But Italian shirtmaker Bellucci Napoli is saying otherwise, with a new express service that gets you into a made-to-measure shirt in just 24 hours. Despite the 21st-century turnaround time, the experience has an old-world feel.

Tucked atop a relatively petite building on 57th Street off Fifth Ave. lies a bespoke connoisseur’s veranda-detailed haute spot in the form of Bellucci Napoli, a custom tailoring outfit by Naples native Nedo Bellucci started less than a decade ago. What’s the trick to Bellucci’s trade? We got the immaculately fitted scoop!

Bespoke NYC: as the saying goes, clothes make the man. There’s a reason it’s called a “power suit.” Luxe fabrics and expert tailoring go a long way in pulling together the ideal suit. If made-to-measure is what you’re seeking, you’re in the right city.

Despite the fact that modern day technology has blessed us with the ability to accomplish so much in such a small-form factor, it has also forsaken us with a super-toxic relationship of co-dependence in the sense that we are now required to carry around several personal gadgets and items with us as a requirement of our day-to-day lives.

Nedo Bellucci is Professor of Fit, Balance, and Proportion in Menswear at Fashion Institute of Technology. Professor Bellucci has taught at FIT since 2015 and is CEO and Creative Director at Bellucci Napoli and Aputeka.

NEW YORK – Owner and designer Nedo Bellucci has brought a bit of old world to the island of Manhattan – creating an inviting menswear mecca set via an impressive three-floor ‘palazzo’ on 5 East 57th street.

Tucked behind an unassuming little door on bustling 57th Street lies the work space of Bellucci Napoli‘s master tailor Simone Olibet. The Italian-born tailor’s bespoke suits and shirts are giving New Yorker’s a rich taste of the Neapolitan high-life.

It happen circuitly. As a Neapolitan, when I grew up I loved to wear high quality suits and coats. I use to come to New York quite often and I saw clearly what the difference in style from Neapolitan and Italians in general was to that of American men. So I always thought that where ever there is a need, there is an opportunity. Knowing the capability of Americans to be open to learning and improving themselves I dream that if one day I had the opportunity I would start a business in custom clothing.
