We do make a few types of Hollywood waistbands and other types of trousers. Some images below.

Hi @luxire would you be able to give me the fabric code of the Drapers 4-ply in mid-grey? Would you also be able to show photos of the mid-grey 4ply next to Minnis Fresco 510248?
I have both (VBC 1218 13oz) and am a huge fan of the 4ply - better drape and smoother than the Fresco. Performs just as well in >40C Australian Summers too.

4 ply on the right

Thank you so much for providing the fabric code as well as the photo comparison. That was super helpful! VBC looks just a tad darker than Fresco.

Can I ask how much 4-ply was through Luxire?
Didn’t get it through luxire, was bespoke from Dylan and Son

Thank you for sharing!

VBC made the 4-ply after a lot of study. It is indeed an amazing fabric. Only down side is that there are very few color and design choices when compared to the Fresco.

personally I wouldn’t mind seeing the in stock blue 4 ply options next to each other, including in the sun

What price would you quote for a first lets say "ok" suit for work? Basic with half/full canvas (do you do both or just the one) Or are the prices depending on where I live and the official living standards of my county? ;) Can any posters also give me some of their experience?

Suits currently start at $600
There are some jackets for $300, but none of them are for business suits.
Price does not really change by domicile, but it does change by how our service team perceives the customer to be. Good communication can result in good discounts and special service ;)
