Hello, All!
I will be in NYC next weekend, and then again at the end of January, and am looking for recommendations on a MTM or possibly Bespoke suit. I currently own 1 navy hopsack I ordered from Oliver Wicks, which came out perfectly lovely. I realize I could go with an online version again, but I figured I'll be in NYC, and had the in-person experience of being measured by a professional, etc. I'm coming from Tampa, FL and there really are not many options around these parts.
I am aiming to keep the budget around $2k, so I realize MTM is probably the best option. Additionally, I'm not looking for anything too customized, just standard staples. I'm looking for either a grey quarter-lined fresco double-breasted peak lapel (It's always hot in FL), or charcoal flannel/chalk stripe double-breasted peak lapel (so I have something ready when it is cold) OR go straight for the tuxedo I want, and will wear often (I am a fan of the theater/opera/symphony, and would wear it there).
I came across this
https://www.styleforum.net/threads/mtm-and-bespoke-makers-in-nyc.689987/ which leads to this list: https://dresscode.danhakimi.com/mtm-bespoke-nyc/ which was immensely helpful in finding options, but I wonder if anyone could provide recommendations. Because I'm coming from afar, it would be nice to find someone experience AND reliable.
Thanks in advance!
