I've known Pino Vaghi, General Manager of Luigi Borrelli, for a while and I have always been impressed with his humor and style. Come to think of it, that is also the way I would describe Cary Grant. If business success is all about the people, then Luigi Borrelli LLC is building for big profits. Borrelli is aggressively expanding it product offerings (sportswear, outerwear) and with a group of Sartorialists like Pino, Giuseppe de Corato and David Anicich heading up the U.S. efforts then I clearly imagine that I will soon be wearing Borrelli every hour of the day.
