The second part of the feature that the Spanish version of How to Spend It ran on me and Luca Rubinacci has just come out. In the article, Luca picks out three Rubinacci outfits that display his unique take on colour and texture – reproduced here.
I’m sensing a theme here. Again, it’s the combination of pale blue chinos and purple linen jacket. Knit tie helps anchor the two. I seem to wear grey flannels or jeans so much these days with jackets that it’s nice to have different suggestions.
hey simon, i like a lot of rubanacci style, but the only thing which i think is somewhat incongruent is these pastel colours and light weaves & cloths being worn in the UK. Walking around the a piazza in florence would look fantastic .. but walking down the steps to the underground on a chilly rainy february day would feel a bit wrong. do you have a view on this issue?

That’s true Raj, this is definitely Spring or Summer clothing.
