Does anyone have any experience with any tailors in NYC who cut suits/sportscoats in Neapolitan style? Not sure who is alive anymore - most of the tailors I knew 10-15 years ago were well into their 70s then.

No tailors I know of currently make bespoke in NYC such as you describe (Frank Ercole might be the closest thing?). However, many tailors travel to NYC. The Armoury frequently hosts trunk shows and many other tailors simply take orders during hotel suite visits....

I will stop by Frank’s shop & get the armoury’s truck show schedule this week. Thanks.

Anyone know if any IT tailors are visiting nyc this summer? Rubinacci or any others?

Solito, Napoli Su Misura, Formosa, & Rubinacci I believe are the neapolitans that travel to NYC. For Milanese, I think Musella Dambech through the Armoury. Florentine, Liverano, also through the armoury. B&Tailor also travels, a little Florentine inspired, but different at the same time.

I know nothing about this firm, except that it actually has
a permanent presence in NYC. Years ago I posted an inquiry
re: them on Style Forum, but received no response.
