New here and going bespoke (help needed thanks)

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 

Hello everyone,

 

I am new here and would like to ask the people who still accept good cloths on some opinions.

I have always been into cloths somewhat (suits in particular, since I need them for work), but lately I see how bad people are dressed in general, so that makes me want to look better even more.

 

After reading alot of topics here and at aaac i decided it is time to go for a bespoke suit. (I will be traveling is Asia so i will be able to afford it). I have seen alot of people making very bad decisions on bespoke (no offense) so I think it will be half a year before I will make the final purchase. I did about a month of research until now so I think it is time to share.

 

For cloth i am getting some fabrics directly from England from a mill that sells directly to consumers. I will inform you when I have their book ASAP.
 

I have quite some ideas in my head about what I want in the style (details is for after having a mental picture in my head for the style)

 

This for now is on my wishlist:

 

single brested
structured shoulders (Italian design TF like) roped (this suite doesn´t have it the way i like)
good chest structure
very high armholes
Standard lapels a little wider then average. (With handstitched buttonhole)
2 buttons
Open quarters 
very good waist supression to get the X idea
Slim sleeves
slim trouwsers tappered
No pleat 
 
With that in mind I went to the store to try some RTW to see how this fits. I took some pictures in the dressingroom the lowerbutton is closed because of the card. What do you guys think of the fitting? (I have a more than average shoulder to waist drop so to me the style looks good, but I am ready to hear comments).
 
(If I made some mistakes in spelling I am sorry English is not my native tongue)
 
Thanks everyone.

Also wondering where the line is in to much of the TF style. I want it to be more timeless so what should i watch out for?

What?

I don't know how you expect anyone to make any useful comments on the fit with both buttons done up, your hand in your pocket and no pictures from the side or back.

I understand that it is somewhat difficult.I don;t have any really good pictures I didn;t know i was going to post it here when I was in the store, I just hope people can get an idea. The most important thing for me is if the sillouette looks decent (since I read some threats of people trying sillouettes while they would be better of with a different one).

 

Maybe there would be some suggestions to what i should watch out for when going for a "stronger" european cut.

Thanks
