Hello everyone. I got my 1st shirt from Divij and he just about nailed the fit so I will be ordering some more shirts. I got Alumo Superlux Poplin 120/2 and I honestly hate it. It feels crinkly and ironing it is painful experience. Any suggestions on trying different mills or fabric type that wrinkles less. Not sure if Alumo is working for me so maybe Italian mills?

I'm a big fan of Thomas Mason Silverline and Goldline and pretty much everything from DJA(David & John Anderson).

I like Thomas Mason Silver and Tessitori Monti. I also tend to favor Royal Oxford cloth. It's got texture, but is considerably softer than oxford cloth. It has enough body to drape nicely.

Hello Everyone so having tried Alumo poplin I switched to Thomas Mason Oxford and the trousers are also by Divij. Any comments/criticism on fit would be appreciated. These are my first bespoke commissions from Divij.

Divij is great modifying patterns once you have washed the shirt a few times and wear it to see him. Your chest might have a little extra space compared to how I like the fit. He adjusted my shoulders after my first shirt for subsequent orders.

The trousers look really clean.

Hello All -
I had a suit done by Divij and I'm looking for some feedback on the fit. I feel like it's too generous through the chest and there is bunching where the body meets the sleeves. Images attached and I would appreciate any feedback.

Honestly, I would be interested to know what you discussed with him. Did you discuss the issues during the fitting bc it looks like it should have been something that was clearly visible. I would suggest contacting him and letting him know your concerns. Not sure how and if this can be fixed.

You’re right about the chest. I’m not a tailor but it does not look right at all. If you send him these photos I’m confident he would make it right for you somehow.
