SP's Charvet is a terrific fitting shirt. But in ET's terminology, I would have assumed that it would qualify as 'no drape' on the sides, correct?
Alot of that was getting nailed with a FedEx customs bill after delivery to the US.
Do you think it is slightly tight though? It is a well fitting shirt on the picture, I wonder if you can comfortably move in it.
Thank you- and this is what the tailors at Charvet said as well. Both my wallet and I were appreciative of that consensus.
At that rate wouldn't it have been cheaper to go with bespoke for the shirt? I'm just looking into some MTM options and the cheapest I've found seems to be the 50-100 range with moderntailor, but there seems to be a lot of negativity directed towards them.

Not necessarily. I did my fitting on a one off visit to Paris and they require you to go back for a few fittings afterwards, which I could not do. After assessing my frame and fit, the SA and the tailor both agreed that for several reasons, it would be much better to go MTM.
