Ongoing Bespoke Projects

[brax]

The third of four commissions that came from Tofani. Again sans fittings. This is a Taylor & Lodge blazer. I wanted metal buttons as it is a blazer but had a hard time finding any that I liked. Davide reached into his father’s vault and found these 50 year old buttons. View attachment 2095497 View attachment 2095499

Was that the lumbs golden bale / mohair blend mock Leno? I was looking for a length of that fabric but Taylor & lodge wasnt open.

Also, in the first photo, is that an old brora x London lounge tweed jacketing fabric. I think it was called brora 646, if I recall correctly

Nope it is the Taylor & Lodge 6ply 520g in navy. I really love the texture of this fabric for a blazer b

Yep, it is the LL Brora 646.

It was $3-4K for a sport coat 2 or 3 years ago, I think his price can vary a bit with how busy he is (although that may have just been a pandemic thing...)
