May I ask where you work?
HAs anyone here tried this option out with Gentlemen's footwear or anyone else? I'd love some feedback asto how it went, whether the fitting was successful, etc.
I haven't tried it - but this is the internet, so it won't stop me from offering an opinion! ;-)
I think that for people who are pretty thin and of regular dimensions, it's not a bad option as such people are generally pretty easy to fit.
However, for people who are carrying a bit of extra weight (like me!), it's a different situation. Obviously, everyone is different but if you're not of "average" build, I really think that you're asking for trouble, or at least for a lot of effort, if you order MTO clothing remotely.
I know that Orazio Luciano is popular on SF, and their clothes are of high quality - but quality is pointless if it doesn't fit well. So I think that what you really need to ask yourself, is why do you want to do this - is it just because of the name?
My 2 cents worth is that you're better off going somewhere local where you can get fitted up in person, rather than spending the equivalent of $4000 or $5000 and also spending six months sending parcels back and forth across the Pacific in the hope of getting a decent fit.
Of course, I could be wrong (it's happened before!) but in all honesty, unless you're an easy fit, I think that getting a remote MTO suit is likely to result in a lengthy, frustrating and expensive experience.
Going to the what at where now?!I'm going to their trunk show in Melbourne next week.
I needwant some dress gloves.
Has anyone got any recommendations?
If you can't find anywhere to buy a pair in Sydney (does Henry Bucks stock gloves?), then do make sure that you measure your hand to get a reasonable idea of fit.

Personally, I prefer suede as it looks a bit more casual and the leather doesn't "creak" as you grip something with them. Lamb leather is very soft but probably not as durable.

If you know your size they have some on sale until midnight tonight.Thanks, JM.
I forgot about Henry Bucks - I'll take a look there tomorrow.

Surely this is one of life's small pleasures.
