Over the past century, the master tailors of Naples have become among the most renowned in the world. Today, without an urgent effort by younger generations to preserve the dying craft, Italy’s legendary tradition could go extinct.
“Young people nowadays don’t want to wait, they don’t want to understand that in this line of work to become great you need great knowledge,” says Italian tailor Gaetano Aloisio.
