Back in October, I first caught wind of Natural Born Elegance, a Portland-headquartered menswear company with deep roots in Italy. At the time they were solely focused on neckwear, but they recently announced an expansion into jackets.... extremely nice men's jackets. Mercury correspondent Toby Robboy has a forthcoming appointment with designer Julian Cerruti to see these beauties in person, but in the meantime peep the all the preview photos on MOD; they are really quite impressive.
