    French Tailoring Thread (e.g. Camps de Luca, Cifonelli, Smalto and etc.)

     Lorenzo speaks very good English and I have found Romain to be fantastic. I have really come to admire my Cifonelli garments. I have used Huntsman, A&S and Cifonelli. I find them all great, but they are all different. The handwork on Cifonelli is world class-- especially the stitching...

    Best Tuxedo Accessories?

    Hi! Great questions. I am still not sure what your budget is for cufflinks as I have seen some sets it over $100k. I would look at cufflinks as two types: 1. Modern and 2. Vintage. In regards to modern cufflinks I think the best quality include Van Cleef and Arpels-- their mystery set...

    Anyone had experience with Cifonelli

    Well let me enjoy this one first!

    Anyone had experience with Cifonelli

    Just wanted to let everyone know that in the end Cifonelli was more reasonable than I expected.

    Anyone had experience with Cifonelli

     That is my fear. I know my suit was around the 6K us dollars. While its expensive... and on the same price level as Huntsman, I can see the handwork and the attention to detail Lorenzo put into the suit. I am scared for the price of the sport jacket.

    Anyone had experience with Cifonelli

    Kuro is right! Their pricing online or if you call them includes VAT. We do not do VAT here in the US, so definitely subtract that out. Even shipping is not that much. The other thing I was impressed with regarding Cifonelli is how efficient their shipping is. Yes, the UK bespoke tailors are...

    Sure. I can take photos with my iPhone this week. How do I upload the pictures?

    Anyone had experience with Cifonelli

    I hate to say it, but I am not sure. Its always scary when you do not know the price! I know that their suit was about the same price as Huntsman's. I would suspect that the travel jacket is about the same as a Huntsman jacket. With that said my Cifonelli garments came today and they are...

    Anyone had experience with Cifonelli

    Kuro, you are very right. I think your put it better, their business suit is distinctive, I found it a bit more stylized than the British styling, but I like it a great deal. Their English is not horrible and Lorenzo is fantastic to work with. I also agree that their attention to detail...

    Anyone had experience with Cifonelli

    Hi! I have had experience Cifonelli- as well as great bespoke houses in London and NYC. I was introduced by a friend of mine in NYC who said I really must try Cifonelli. Although I resisted for more than a year, I confess, I am glad I did try them. I am very impressed with Lorenzo and...

    "Gold & Wood" Glasses - Opinions?

    Gold and Wood is a great glasses manufacturer. They use top quality horn in their horn frames and are of very high quality. I have a few frames and I really like them.

    1st Bespoke - Huntsman or Richard Anderson?

    You're actually doing the right thing if bespoke is your dream... Why spending thousands of pounds on Brioni ,Kiton if you want a bespoke suit from the row... Pick your tailor and go for it because it is a great personal journey. I agree. Enjoy the journey!

    1st Bespoke - Huntsman or Richard Anderson?

    I have used Huntsman and A & S and Len Logsdail. I have not used Richard Anderson, but I hear nothing bu good things. I love A&S especially their double breasted. As for Huntsman I love their one button signature jacket. I have nothing but respect for Peter Smith and Patrick Murphy...

    Turnbull & Asser shirts - quality and fit?

    Hi! I think very highly of Turnbull and Asser. I wore t&a shirts exclusively for more than 15 years. The quality is outstanding and I still will wear most of the shirts that fit( a few have shrunk). I have worn both bespoke, MTM, and rtw and the quality is consistently high. I changed...

    Help me buy my first watch

    Not sure where to start, but I like the idea of a vintage watch. I do collect pieces and I have always thought the best value is to buy a great condition used watch. Watches are like cars and lose value the moment you buy one-- there are exceptions, such as top brands like Patek or Lange and...
