Hi guys!

I was looking for a MTM suit in NY, double breast with european slim fit/cut style.

Just as a reference, the brand I wear the most and that fits me perfectly is Dolce&Gabbana.
Being an italian, I'm looking for a tailor able to do an italian cut....around $1000
Unfortunately I work in NY so I can't come back to Italy for the necessary time for a MTM suit....
I heard that MySuit is very cheap and Mr.Ned is american style.

Any advice? Thanks!!

If Dolce & Gabbana "fits [you] perfectly" then why don't you stick to that? MTM at your price range in New York is really hit or miss. You would probably be better off finding something you like OTR (deeply discounted) and taking it to a competent tailor.

Because Dolce&Gabbana doesn't make any double breast, and I really did not find many DB browsing around, let alone something slim... What price point do you think would be good here?

Says who? Vahram (aka Mr. Ned) will make whatever you want.

I have a Mr. Ned suit where the jacket is so fitted that I can't put sunglasses in the chest pocket.
