Does anyone know of a bespoke trouser maker in DFW area? I have one name so far.

May I ask, who is the gentleman in your avatar? think I know, but not certain.

How many tailor shops have you been thrown out of now? Or did you stop counting?

I put on a disguise and change my voice every time I go into a shop now. So, thrown out many times, but still with the same tailors.

"patch poc-"

*ahem*

*in higher pitch voice*

"patch pockets please"

My tailor won’t do patch pockets for me for some reason...but again when j heard someone else came in to ask for the sbpl style that I regularly order he refused to make one for him

The funniest thing about that makeover scene is how much Gosling's suit sucks.

He looks like he’s wearing a suit two sizes too small and wayyy too short

A suit can only look as good as what's underneath.

Looks like the little known Neapolitan Tailor Shop, Sonabice.
Suit looks great. Like how the pleat rolls into the crease at a very low point. Makes the pleats sort of disappear.
Which picture shows the best example of the color? Cloth looks to have yellow tones but the sleeve picture does not.
Making the same suit in a neutral stone color. Two differences. Besom pockets, not patch and reversing the button count. One on front and two on the sleeve

I would say the close up photos are less color true and the full shots more so. In any case, the cloth is Dugdale Natural Elements 7304 in case you are familiar with it. Overall I'm thrilled with the result. 3/2 front and one button sleeve was recommended by my tailor as this is his standard config for casual jackets since I told him I wanted to wear it as an odd jacket often. I do like the idea of one front button and two on the sleeves! Maybe for my next linen commission. Besom pockets would be cool too.

Respectfully, I disagree completely. In fact, the entire premise of the suit runs counter to your statement.

Indeed, none of the men I'd consider to be the best dressed were/are Adonis types.

Does this mean if I start letting myself go, I'd be considered more well dressed by this crowd?
