all in all, this seems more like an exploration of the<br />
art of detail than a visit to an atelier. the mannequins,<br />

that this is a “seeker’s den”, and that is how leonardi<br />
sees himself, “because i love to search for new<br />
ideas, gleaned from art or furniture design, and see<br />
how i can apply them to fashion”. we are in piazza<br />
sant’erasmo Cinque, but in a flash we are transported<br />
to the london of exclusive antiques, in an<br />
art gallery, a furniture showroom and who knows<br />
what else; because the search is never-ending. “we<br />
have created a series of ad hoc accessories: made<br />
to measure ties with unusual retro silks, a vast range<br />
of pochettes, shirts, leather accessories, scents and,<br />
when the weather turns nicer, even made to measure<br />
bicycles”, he tells us. what’s next? - we intend to<br />
expand the entire cashmere tailoring segment, with<br />
the collaboration of artisans who weave on ancient<br />
looms; we are offering a personalized service that includes<br />
a reorganization of the entire wardrobe and<br />
remodeling of the individual articles. a bespoken<br />
