![]() VIVA MONACO – Picking up on the theme of quality and attention to detail, can you tell us where and how you manufacture your products and what you pay particular attention to? ![]() I often get asked about vests that we brought out years ago, which makes me very happy and shows how time-independent our vests make an impression. Sometimes I like it fancier, and other times more casual and sporty. My favorite vest varies depending on my mood and style. In the warmer seasons we use the finest cotton and cotton-linen blends, and in the cooler seasons we use fine cotton, virgin wool to cashmere blends, all sourced from Italy. Every year we design a Spring/Summer and an Autumn/Winter collection consisting of about 18-20 different vest models. It starts with our handpicked fabric and material selection and continues through every manufacturing process. JB: That’s right, high quality is our top priority. Could you tell us something about your product range and your favorite piece from it? VIVA MONACO – Quality seems to be the number one priority for your own products. People who, with their stories and their attitude to life, trigger something in you and make you think. As a creative person, you soak up snapshots that come from architecture, art, music, nature, but also from encounters with special people. JB: If you walk through life attentively and positively, there are countless impulses that inspire you. VIVA MONACO – Where do you find your inspiration for your men’s vests? We offer numerous cuts with many details, whether single-breasted with or without collar, smart double-breasted, casual hooded vests, chic tuxedo to cool biker vests. Only the finest Italian fabrics are used in our men’s vests, but they are not used as such in suits or jackets, and lining backs as well as plastic buttons are taboo for us. In terms of fit, our vests are cut narrower and more masculine, but also longer for larger men, all of which, and ultimately after a lot of hard work, we succeeded in doing very well. We developed numerous cuts and prototypes, laid out like a “jacket without sleeves”, and meticulously tweaked every millimeter to create the perfect cut for different body types. With our founding in 2013, we wanted to put the topic of vests modern and yet timeless in a new fashion light for the world of men. Since the beginning of the 20th century, it is almost only known as a component of the suit, the so-called three-piece, but thereby also strongly fallen into the background. Nobly worn by kings, elegantly staged by aristocrats, to in rougher and cooler form for cowboys. JB: Oh yes, vests have been around for centuries. What sets you apart from other labels on the market? What makes your vests special? VIVA MONACO – Not all men’s vests are the same. So we surprise with and from our product, and not because it is currently trendy. We don’t intentionally try to pick up on any trends, but rather reinvent ourselves and our styles with attention to detail and variety from season to season. JB: Design is the signature of every brand, which is why everything from this direction comes authentically from me and my business partner, Michael Ostermayer. VIVA MONACO – I’m also interested in an insight into your design philosophy and how you apply it to your products. Not in a conservative way, but always paired with a natural and masculine nonchalance. As a pure premium men’s label, important attributes such as charming, cosmopolitan, stylish, self-confident, sophisticated and respectful from the gentleman’s world therefore also play a role for us. JB: We at DORNSCHILD believe strongly in values that are timeless and detached from imposed trends and short-livedness. How would you describe the philosophy of your company in a few sentences?
