Today we’d like to introduce you to Antoine Rubini.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Antoine. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
In June 2008, I founded AMR Clothing Company, with the intent of continuing my father’s legacy in fine apparel by providing customers, access to high-end Italian made clothing at a great price point. We are committed to our customers from the beginning of production in beautiful Italy, to the end result of leaving the shop feeling more confident.
I wanted to create a unique shopping experience that contrasts significantly against large chain retailers by providing an atmosphere that almost feels like you are taking a step back in time. A time when custom tailoring and attention to detail were extremely important. We start by taking into consideration your career, personality, taste, and style to accurately piece together a beautiful, tasteful and most importantly, useful, wardrobe.
My store reflects 3 generations of fine Italian apparel experience, my grandmother being the first. She was among the most favored custom tailors for the elite nobility in southern Italy. My father followed in her footsteps beginning by working with well-known companies such as Cerruti and Bassetti, at a very young age. Soon he was operating his own manufacturing, distribution, and retail companies in Bari and Rome Italy.
He introduced his vision to the city of Boston in 1989. I wanted to continue my family’s legacy by creating my own rendition of such a classic concept. At Antoine Rubini AMR our goal is to continue bringing our valued customer’s fine Italian shirts and suits born from a tradition of impeccable taste, and worthy of the label, Made in Italy.
Progress has not changed our commitment to quality. Our manufacturers conduct their daily operations in a manner consistent with our characteristically high standards, paying particular attention to details throughout the crafting process. Our access to fabric selections from Italy allows us to bring you styles unavailable elsewhere.
By utilizing textiles of premier fabric maker, Monti, we bring our customers meticulously woven cotton and wool ensembles sure to please the most fastidious dresser. Italian clothing is defined by its superior quality in terms of craftsmanship and the use of rich materials.
Our customers can feel confident and fashionable wearing clothing created for those who demand superb attire at an exceptional price. We aim to reach customers in the global market with our signature products which are the result of a century tradition of Italian artistry.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
As any business venture, I would say that is never a smooth road. There are challenges, however, they can always be surpassed by a good attitude, intelligence, and open-mindedness.
Some of the challenges that we face are related to technological advances and how they are affecting the retail arena. So we constantly ask ourselves constructive questions in order to create and increase customer satisfaction.
Alright – so let’s talk business. Tell us about AMR ANTOINE RUBINI – what should we know?
