Military uniforms are the basis of a lot of men's wear and yet you do not have to look all that hard at an Armani show to see how this season's down-filled Alpine blanket ponchos resemble gear that was worn by Greek troops to cross the Alps or how the shearling versions of the cappotto di montone, or mountain coat, derive from images that would have been seared into the consciousness of anyone who saw a newspaper during the war.
