this is the 3rd time I see him.

First time was just measurement, 2nd time was basted fitting, I didn't take picture, but I think a lot shop would have been done by 2nd time (or happy to ship out with whatever marked up there). 3rd time is today, which is minimal adjustment, he wanted left leg to fit cleaner and to his disapproval I still wanted to add back pocket to pants (just practicality...).

Next time should be final product.

why does this need to be MBTed...? afaik they aren't those iykyk place but guess i'll keep it quiet maybe theres something i dont know
I like their trousers, not too sold on their jackets given their price is pretty high and not a lot of feedback online thus far. asked about their harrington jacket but couldnt get myself to pay that price
Does knowledge of the tailor’s name impact people’s enjoyment of @tdang’s contribution to the thread?

More fittings with Jun today. The tricotine I ordered was all sold out so we went with LP solaro instead. It was a wise choice.

And finally a beautiful vintage Carlo Barbera in an orange milkshake color.

Was veeeeeery tempted by this lilac windowpane, but I managed to rein in my bespokelust.

I had another navy wool/ linen jacket on order but I guess it won’t be fitted this time. Going to Seoul to see him early next year to have the final fittings anyway.

Such a stylish tailor. I wish I had take a photo of him today - he was wearing a navy sport coat with tonal blue windowpanes, dove grey flannels, olive shirt in cashmere cotton with a blue foulard tie. All fitting very loosely - closest thing to sprezz that I’ve seen in real life.

shame, that lilac colour is fire... could imagine it coming beautiful as hell
the orange milkshake looks very interesting but might be difficult to match an outfit for it?
