M.A+ Maurizio Amadei Carpe Diem Tan Leather Jacket, Button Close, fits Medium M
A very cool artisanal piece here from the M.A+ label, designed by Maurizio Amadei formerly of Carpe Diem. Carpe Diem was basically the pinnacle of artisanal fashion in the early 2000s, producing some extremely influential clothing and working as the creative outlet for a number of highly influential designers.
Continues in Carpe Diem’s tradition of entirely handmade garments, paired with completely unique and interesting patterns and fabrics, as well as a strong emphasis on leather. While M.A+ uses a variety of materials, Amadei got his start in leather work and M.A+ very much specializes in leather pieces. They have some of the highest quality leather that I have personally handled, easily rivaling Carol Christian Poell, Augusta / a1923, Guidi or any of their contemporaries. Treatments are also singularly unique as we see here.
