The workshop has been located in Paris on Rue Marbeuf since 1936. The house cut of suit is characterized by a slim sleeve with a high, slightly wide armhole which ends in a thick, distinctive roll at the top of the sleevehead; the French shoulder has become synonymous with Cifonelli. Cifonelli helped popularise the raised Milanese buttonhole. Lorenzo and Massimo Cifonelli, who are cousins in the fourth-generation of the family business, took on leadership of the house in the 1990s. The garments are handmade in the Parisian workshop.

Neapolitan tailoring was born as an attempt to loosen up the stiffness of English tailoring, which did not suit the Neapolitan lifestyle or climate.
