    Suitsupply NYC

    I've got ~4 hours during a weekday to go and get 2 suits fitted and ordered, and 2 additional waistcoasts measured and paid for. Which store is biggest/most likely to have decent stock levels / fabric supplies etc to get this done without me having to make a second trip to London?

    Tailor for summer wedding attire in London?

    Actually, that could be a strong choice. If I recall they can custom make me a waistcoat to go with a 2-piece suit with the (matching) fabric of my choice.

    Tailor for summer wedding attire in London?

    Funny you should say that. One of my business suits is from there. I was impressed with the material quality but not with the tailoring itself as various things were wrong with it (things I had pointed out in store and asked to be rectified before it was sent to me) ranging from very loose...

    Tailor for summer wedding attire in London?

    thesavilerowtailor; I honestly had no idea prices went that high. And I thought several hundred to a thousand was a reasonably high price! In classic bride fashion, she has now decided she would prefer me in a suit as long as I can remove the jacket and have photos taken in just the waistcoat...

    Tailor for summer wedding attire in London?

    Thanks for the replies. Budget is not too important. I'm happy to pay quite a bit. For comparison purposes I would look to spend at least several hundred for business suits. I want it to be very well fitting, and high quality so made to measure is probably the way to go? As for the 'why no...

    Tailor for summer wedding attire in London?

    Hi all, Looking for recommendations for a London based tailor for a trousers/waistcoat/shirt combo in London for my wedding. I don't want a full suit but I do want quality materials and a good fit. Many thanks,

    Suitsupply NYC

    I spotted the loose buttons and pieces of thread hanging off and asked them to rectify those. Unfortunately I didn't spot the hole in the jacket sleeve until it arrived in the post. The button string was unraveling and the buttons themselves were actually 'hanging' down at an angle quite...

    Suitsupply NYC

    A few pages ago I wrote that I purchased a suitsupply suit from the Vigo street store, only to have it arrive in the post with loose buttons, thread hanging from the suit jacket in 2 places, and a finger sized hole in the jacket sleeve. In short - massive disappointment, especially considering...

    Suitsupply NYC

    Disappointed with Suitsupply London. I don't know if they have a thread on styleforum so I will post this here. A couple of minor problems with my suit were pointed out during a store visit/measuring session and not fixed prior to delivery. Finally I have spotted a larger problem with the suit...

    I have a jean...(The Ultimate Jean Thread For Beginners) - ask questions here.

    Suggestions for a roughly 200£ purchase? Slim fitting, dark in color. Brands to look for? Thought I'd upgrade from my usual Levis.

    What are some good Jean brands?

    I usually just buy Levis but I thought I might treat myself. I heard nowadays you could get much better quality jeans. What are some brands to look for and how expensive are they? I was thinking £200-300 depending on quality. Thanks

    Suitsupply NYC

    Can I take that to mean that while my old cheaper suits required multiple trousers - my suitsupply should be fine with just the trousers which originally came with the jacket? (I suppose the same can't be said of the Hugo Boss suit I was looking at).
