During my last visit
in Lisbon, the city where I was born, I took the opportunity to visit
Diniz & Cruz http://www.dohomem.pt/dinizcruz/eng/index.htm a top Factory and Creation Platform, which combines
European Standards with Portuguese “gentillesse” and “savoir
faire”.
They have important
international customers and they also create and produce for each
season, their own collections very well balanced between tradition of
craftmanship , technological development , great quality of materials
and good taste with a dashing touch.
I was very well
received with uncomparable Portuguese hospitality.
I had in the back of my mind
the prototype / three piece green tweed suit, used in the making of the
promotion film “The Lisbon Connection” …
After a very useful
and pleasant day chatting and visiting the important production line
and seeing lots of beautiful men's cloths, I left.
Then, when i was
already standing at the bus stop, I was really suprised with the
unique, warm and “gentile “ Portuguese touch . They had found the
unique suit and a car appeared to take me back to my desired piece.
To send them and
you all a
“Christmas card” with the best wishes for the New Year I asked
Michael Floor http://michaelfloor.com/
to take some photographs of me wearing it, at Tommy Page Vintage

Feliz Natal e Bom
Ano Novo !
