Could some of you bespoke suit experts please enlighten me with some wisdom
I recently paid a visit to a tailor here in Asia about getting a fully canvased 3 piece suit made. Whilst viewing the samples I was shown an Italian brand called Fratelli Tallia di Delfino (Super 130/140's) and I was quoted at around $950 USD. Is this a decent brand? high quality?
I was then shown Zegna samples (Super 120) and then the price drastically doubled and it was only for a 2 piece and not a 3 piece. Is the Zegna really that good that it's worth double that of the Fratelli or is it more of a case of paying for the name? Also could somebody please point me in the direction of an on-line retailer which sells good quality suiting fabrics?
