Loro Piana - Dream Tweed Fabric - Looking To Source

Hi everyone,

I hope you're all keeping well. I'm trying to source Loro Piana material to match a 2 piece suit I have. I'm hoping to get a matching waistcoat made and I'm struggling to find the matching material online. I was hoping the experts on here might be able to rescue me!

I have attached a picture of the label, and also a picture of the suit (with and without a flash) with a blank page beside it for colour contrast. As far as I can tell, it is a navy dream tweed extra fine 100% wool material. I haven't been able to find an exact reference anywhere on the suit or trousers, and the samples I have ordered from Joel & Sons, Rex and Lanieri have all come up short, unfortunately, none of them are a match.

I don't mind if I have to buy from the States, there is a chance Hall Madden or Astor Black have this material in stock if anyone knows them or shops/works there or hopefully a stand alone boutique might carry this stock too. I'm open to any ideas or suggestions.

Thanks in advance,
Gary

Sometimes @edmorel has amazing fabric though I'm not sure if he still comes here often.
