Since 1990

A suit should not just fit your measurements. It should fit the way you stand, the way you move, and the rooms you walk into. That is the work of a tailor, and it has been ours since 1990.

The Cloth

It begins with the cloth. A length of wool is unrolled and checked for weight, drape and weave.

The Pattern

Measurements become lines. Each piece is drawn onto the cloth in tailor's chalk, shaped to one frame.

Chalk · Rule
III — 09

The Cut

One pass of the shears, along the chalk line. There is no undo in tailoring: measure twice, cut once.

The Basting

The jacket is held together with long, loose stitches, so it can be tried on, adjusted and shaped.

The Seam

Once the fit is right, the basting comes out and the seams go in, sewn and pressed open.

The Hand

Some details are best done by hand, like buttonholes, lapel edges and linings.

The Press

Heat, steam and patience. Pressing sets the roll of the lapel and the line of the shoulder.

The Fitting

Then you put it on. We check every line in the mirror and adjust until it falls exactly right.
