His stuff looks great, doesn't it. Hope to pop in next time I'm in Paris, time permitting.

You should call before... You will see on the shelves of his atelier but Kenjiro Suzuki is really, really busy ! ; )

Btw he is not talking English, but his wife does.

French magazine called "Dandy" is now available in English language (translation at the end of the magazine).
This February/March issue got 11 pages focus on tailoring house Cifonelli... But I didn't learn anything new... ; )

Il est heureux que ma femme est parisienne, donc je peux parler un peu.

Génial Nicholas !


This week, I had the chance to observe at the Aubercy's new workshop "Haute Cordonnerie (high quality cobbler)".

It's not French tailoring, but check it out guys ; )

^ also a pair of aubercy repaired there and was similarly impressed by the work. IIRC they will work on other brands as well.

Thanks so much for that.

I love that family.

I went in there last month after not being there for five years. They remembered me by name and then noted that I had lost some weight (and had gone down 1.5 sizes as a result).

Can't wait to go back there. Old fashioned service like you hardly get anywhere else.

 

[HighToned]

Yes, I saw few Berluti shoes and beautiful John Lobb boots.

It's quite old-fashioned service since the second and third generation are working together. It's funny to see them arguing.
The mother also remember me. ; )

They have very interesting design. It's quite unique in Paris.
Also the Japanese Bespoke shoemaker Yasuhiro Shiota is doing an amazing work (and he is very kind).

 

[Dandy Wonka]

I met him when I was there and congratulated them on the bespoke move.

Sadly as I go to Paris infrequently I am not a candidate for bespoke shoes or clothes.

I was very disappointed by the words of Lanvin menswear artistic director, Mr Lucas Ossendrijever in an Itw made by GQ France.



1. Reinvent tailoring :

"When I started at Lanvin, 10 years ago, nothing was happening in the French menswear, in the world of custom-made, at least in the tailoring, except Dior.
Today, we do pre-collection. the pace is quickening. And the menswear business is has developed enormously"
