00:00 Spezzato Introduction

Menswear connoisseurs know the term Spezzato in reference to the inimitable way Italian men split up a suit, wearing the trousers from one and the jacket of another with seemingly effortless style.

01:28 What Does Spezzato Mean?
It is an advanced sartorial technique that involves mixing the jacket (and perhaps a matching vest) from one suit with the pants of another. Although there isn’t a formal distinction, there are really two approaches to doing this.

04:13 How to Pull Off Spezzato Effectively
We've broken this section into 6 separate tips:
04:20 1. Avoid Formal Suiting Looks

10:00 5. Use A Unifying Color To The Pieces Together
10:57 6. Realize That Spezzato Is Meant To Be Casual

Advanced Spezzato

12:08 Using Three Pieces
13:46 Not Recommended: Wearing Casual Pants with a Suit Jacket

Spezzato is really about experimenting and having fun, as well as getting the most out of your wardrobe. It’s a game to see what sorts of combinations you can pull off with the limits being your personal taste and how much you want to be noticed.
