Pitti Uomo Street Style Is Better Than Ever

Pitti Uomo was, for all intents and purposes, a lesser-known event on the calendar: a dandy-filled trade event in which fabrics were sold, tweeds were switched and sunglass-covered eyes judged one another's three-piece magenta suit in silence.

Then menswear got big. The flock of Pitti peacocks grew. Soon, it became an event on par with London, Paris, New York - even Milan. And now, the sartorial circuit descends en masse to Florence each season, with ardent sneakerheads just as likely to attend as the old boys club - and it's this ever-swelling mix that makes Pitti Uomo's street style better than ever. Here's our best in show.
