In business since 1780, Cilento is as much a heritage site as it is a gentle-
men's atelier, with 18th- and 19th-century family garments on display, and its own charming little tex-
tile museum next door (open on request). Bespoke suits aside, their seven-fold silk ties are also highly
prized. Other temptations include handsome handmade shoes, ready-to-wear Cilento polo shirts, men's
and women's bags, hard-to-find fragrances, and scarves.
