For the second time this year Dr. Romanelli teams up with Fruition Las Vegas. This time the two are making sure you are outfitted for the colder months. Dr. Romanelli brought his exquisite cutting techniques to the table and vintage store Fruition once again did an excellent job sourcing materials for the collection.
