A quality overcoat is a winter wedding essential for any groom. It keeps you warm without compromising style and is specially useful for outdoor photos and arrivals.

Choose winter-ready fabrics
At Roberto Vicentti, we privilegde the use of wool, not only because is natural fiber with many advantages but because is a material we treasure in respect to our roots. The use of wool add warmth without bulk, keeping cozy while fitting a formal wedding style. Besides the 100% wool, we believe also in wool blends, as an alternative more generous cost-wisely. Althought we dont use a lot of velvet, this is a luxurious mateirla and holds warmth well, making it ideal for a end of the day wedding. Heavy silk and satin are also a great option for a lighter look. These fabric provide some insulation as well and their sheen gives na elegant look. We leave you with some suggestions.
