Wouldn't it be great if Styleforum, as a group, donated enough for the Corvato sportsjacket, and then we did a little contest to see who got it? And then we documented the process? If you guys are game, we can figure this out, and Styleforum itself, of course, would make a substantial contribution.

Sounds like a good idea to me, Fok.

Vicki, good luck with your film. I enjoyed the trailer.

Alright, so, here's the deal then. People who want to contribute to get the Corvato (or maybe Centofanti, depending on who you guys decide on), please send money via Paypal to styleforum.net@gmail.com, as a gift, and mark with the subject like "Men of the Cloth: Crowdfunding Corvato/Centofanti". If we get within $1000 of the mark, Styleforum will pitch in the rest. We will hold some sort of bizarre contest, in typical Styleforum way, "show us your closet/socks/shoetrees", and the winner (by poll, of course) will get the jacket, and will get to document the process for Styleforum for the rest of us poor guys without Corvato or Centofanti jackets (I say we because admins and mods are no eligible to win). We will all critique his fit, of course. It would not be Styleforum otherwise.

We will do this for 2 weeks." I'm going to tweet it on @styleforumnet. Please help me retweet this thread, and let's get this rolling.

This should be fun.

Here is an interesting pictorial from the 1970s when German tailoring journal Rundschau visited a CDTA meeting in New York. You get to see a younger incarnation of some of the tailors in the film:

Great trailer; I'm excited to see the final product. Will you have DVDs available for purchase after the release?
