A garbage bag by any another name is still a garbage bag.

You think he's a garbage bag? Hmm..I happen to like his wardrobe. If only the sizes of his garments were correct. Really a waste of money when you keep on buying clothes that just don't fit.

I think garbage bag was a reference to the fit of his clothes, not his character.

- very different in the the Brioni cut is very strong in shoulder with emphasis on a V (though they have softened their shape lately, but that is their Roman look).
- Kiton is softer all over

Ah ok, I dislike hard shoulders, but the Kiton I have seen in the forum doesn´t turn me on as Attolini does

Doesn't matter if your clothes are 4 sizes to big... Clown suit weather its Brioni or Penny's.

I have a blue brioni silk and wool suit size 42reg that I might be willing to part with. Nomentano model, SB two button with side vents, flat trousers. I have only worn it twice, since recently purchasing it-- wonderful suit, I just need to buy stuff in size 40reg now.

I'd be careful about judging soft shoulders like on a Kiton or Attolini jacket based on what you see in pictures. Given the softer construction, the exact way each jacket shoulder looks will be highly dependant on your own body, the way the jacket fits you, and the precise fabric used. My Rubinacci jackets all have shirt-set sleeves and soft shoulders, but each looks a tad bit different nonetheless.
