When I added the footnotes to this piece, Substack marked it as “too long for email.” I’ve had this error message before and managed to cut-down to fit, but going forward I will likely try in-text citations.
There was a time when 'Cerutti 1881' meant the fabric in your suit was top notch; my wedding suit in 1993 was made of Cerutti fabric, a gorgeous Super 200 in blue. And as I noted on your Instagram, my big brother was transitioning from session musician to music production under Giorgio Moroder in the early 1980s, and I remember his pride buying his first proper suit - a Nino Cerruti in tan with subdued disco style - modestly wide lapels and a slight flare in the leg. I reckon if that suit were chemically analyzed it would be 50% cocaine! The stories of Moroder's recording studio were wild.
