This is another of my jackets from Mina in the defunct Carlo Barbera jacketings for H. Lesser. This one is a 13oz.


I wish I had seen that plaid while lookin through the Lesser swatches, beautiful.

Wow, totally opposite of what I thought. I just started a suit today with my tailor is Carlo Barbera for H. Lesser. 11oz Royal Blue herringbone.


Pick up in May...lol...I love the Lessers I got, especially becasue i know there won't be any more of them.

Not today, but it's from the same batch as the gun check that I posted earlier:

Thanks for posting, have a jacket in the same cloth, have trouble finding stuff to wear with it...

It seems like the breast dart goes up very high. Maybe too high. The side seam shape is nice. It is a nice coat.

Are you in-process with her, Gus, or do you already have some finished items?

Just got an email from Mina saying that they haven't scheduled a San Francisco trip yet but they think it will be in late March or early April.

Mina and Dino will be in New York at the Flatotel - 52nd between 6th and 7th - from the evening of Sunday February 26th to February 29th, then in Boston, and back for an extra day on Sunday March 4th. Appointments as usual at [email protected], and they're going fast.
