Hello All!
dstarz here, new member, longtime reader. I live in Los Angeles, CA, where I have had the pleasure of learning my craft, as well as learning how to dress for said craft. I have had the opportunity to wear and purchase, for low sums mind you, some great clothing, and it has only whetted my appetite! I had the great good fortune to have several things made by Antonio Gasbarri, listed in The Rob Report as one of the ten best custom tailors in the USA, and boy was he! He made most of what Desi Arnaz wore on "I Love Lucy", made for anyone imaginable, and made suits with a one-piece back! Yep, no seam in the jacket! And all rock of eye, yet! He passed away in 2003, and I miss him greatly: The effect he had on my life, as well as my wardrobe, is timeless....
I am also a rabid thrift-store shopper, as well as ebayer. Most recently, got a beautiful Etro suit at GW for $12.99, and, at a bit more expense but worth it, a Tommy Nutter original on ebay; three piece and in my size! Getting it back from the tailor today, after a few minor adjustments! Can't wait!!!
