Giovani Gentile/Beau Brummel wool flannel suit

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
Hi guys, I spend most of my time in SW&D so if I make a faux pas please excuse me. I'm selling a Giovani Gentile suit from the now-defunct men's shop in Manhattan, Beau Brummel. I bought it a couple years ago during their going-out-of-business sale but it was too big for me then, and it's too big for me now. This suit has been worn once. It's a lovely suit and I hope it will find a good home. It retailed for $1200; I bought it for $400 clearance. I'm asking $250->230 shipped CONUS. It's Euro sized 48 drop 6. I did have the waist taken in a little, as you'll see. The jacket is double-vented. The pants are flat-front, finished with no cuffs to about 32 (US) leg, but the full amount of the original fabric is still there. Here's the tag with all the measurements you like. Measurements: S2S: 17.75" Shoulder to cuff: 25" P2P: 18.25" Length (measured down the back): 31" Waist: 15.5" Thigh: 11.25" The color is a lovely, very subtle dark plaid. The body is charcoal, and the striping has brown, blue and green in it, all very muted. Please ask for any more specific pictures. Unfortunately I don't know a whole lot about suits so I can't offer too many details about construction, that can't be verified visually. The first picture below is the most color accurate.

Could you provide some measurements? In particular: shoulder seam to shoulder seam across the back; the chest at the armpit level; shoulder seam down to the edge of cuff; and overall length from the bottom of the collar down. Also, waist and thigh width on the pants.

Thanks!

p-p-p-p-price drop.

18.25 p2p seems a bit too small, you sure?

I used this method: http://www.askandyaboutclothes.com/T...easurement.htm It's 18.25" between the side seams, and 18.75" from edge to edge.

Very odd, the p2p seems too small. You measured it armpit bottom to armpit bottom? Also, can you measure the ankle opening on the pants?

I'm not immediately ready to commit, but I'll be more certain in a couple of days if it still doesn't sell.
