First/basted fitting of my olive green suit in Novara pure silk.

This is basically a remake of my old RTW suit from Suitsupply a couple of years ago (below IG post). My old suit felt too tight, but I loved this particular cloth very much.



Worked with my tailor to have this made with a more fitted silouette, and overall I am quite satisfied.

Also ongoing is this checked sport jacket in Cerruti 'Oxygen'.

You can tell from photos that this jacket is in a completely different cut from the suit above. We are taking advantage of a checked pattern to experiment with a cut that is dartless in the front and with a shorter V-zone.

Arm hole is a bit larger and there is also more room given to me in the chest.

That green shade is so "cool". The checked cloth is nice as well.

Got my length of the LL Prince Tweed earlier this week. Can't wait to give it to Keiichi Satowa and have it made into a regal 2-piece - so happy he agreed to take me on as a client. The cloth just cries out for a drapey English cut.

Did anyone else subscribe to that?

I did. It's one of the most popular LL designs (I think it's been rewoven at least three times) for a reason. I will also make it into a suit even though I intend to use the jacket separately more often than not.
