- These DSquared leather pants might not be appropriate for the elaborate weddings held in the prison chapel, but they'll do just fine for dance routines in the yard.
- Since they should be wearing prison jumpsuits anyway—they are in jail, right?—here's a sheer one from Dolce&Gabbana.
- And if things get hot, here's a pair of DSquared swim shorts. Just sub out those American flag boxers for Italy's green, white, and red.
- Since they're most comfortable in flashy Italian suits, here's one from Dolce&Gabbana.

- Real mobsters wear pink.
- Fancy pants for the Champagne toasts, from Missoni.
