I got it for $800. It was my first Azzaro purchase.

I too didn't buy one - where were they being sold?

There are plenty of stock left. I just went down there for a look. I bought the burgundy with thin navy horizontal stripe though

. Close enough I say

You've started now ... may as well keep going.

I think this is the perfect place for that. So the sartorial hobbyists stay in touch with all the sartorial related news.

Same as the one I posted?

I agree with said 'close enough'!

Working from home today or else I would have headed down added to the knit collection. That said, I would imagine it would be safe to say that their plain navy is not on sale?

On the topic of a Melbourne meetup, earlier this year a few of us caught up to see the Men's Style exhibition at the NGV. I would be up for another, calender permitting, but I think it would only be fair for it to be mandatory to wear the offical tie or free pocket square.

Okay I just went to R&B sale.
Did I get the right one? There were 2 burgundy knits so I just got the one I liked more.

let's just say that the MTM Tailoring experience I had from a company whose name is subtly related to the Muppets was a far from positive experience.... the killer was checking the tag in the inside pocket of the jacket to find someone elses name written there, scribbled out, and 'stock' written underneath. I'm also not convinced that the fabric is what I chose, and the 2nd pair of pants haven't materialised (though I haven't paid for them, so I'm not really fussed).
Searching around a bit, there is also mentions in a couple of blog posts about them of Consumer Affairs having a file open on them, and the guy doing a runner with peoples dough in a previous incarnation of his business.

With issues like this, it is for everyone's interest to actually name names rather than still showing them any sort of 'respect' and let them screw over more people.
