Dutch artists Lernert & Sander's idea for this stills and video series for Wallpaper* Handmade 2012, shown in a specially-designed outdoor cinema at our exhibition in Brioni HQ last week, arose naturally from the marriage of Brioni's bespoke craftsmanship and Wallpaper's Handmade theme. 'We like to be playful and have fun, so there is an element of mischief about this film,' they say. 'What better way to showcase the abilities of Brioni's master tailors than to set them the ultimate test of skill with a particularly exacting customer?'
