He’s in the AC Peninsula Hotel branch in HK.
And has been with AC for something like 30+ years, if I recall correctly.

Received my package from Burgos. I've only worn the pyjamas but will show the other two pieces a bit later. The pyjamas are bespoke but as they are pyjamas after all, I don't notice much difference except: 1) I can pick my own fabric and 2) I don't wear pyjama tops so the cost of bespoke bottoms is about the same as OTR bottoms and tops so I'm staying in the bespoke lane. I'll have the waist taken it a bit although I like how the tops cinch. Also, maybe a pocket? But probably not. A linen pair is very likely.

Any thoughts on the new Huntsman Bespoke 100 process? It seems to be cutting in house, construction overseas, and fittings/adjustments in house...similar to the Whitcomb and Shaftesbury 'classic bespoke' option that was written about on Permanent Style
Huntsman at 3500 GBP seems a lot more palatable than at 5500 GBP, esp considering their old MTM product was priced at 2900 GBP
Anyone know what the going rate is for AC bespoke shirts these days?

Really respect this maker. Familiar with his work thru his website. His sewing techniques have deep roots in great Italian tailoring. He shows reverence for the older sewing methods and it shows in the expression of his garments. His silhouette is unique. I like that he isn't trying to mimic any trend or other known silhouette. His aesthetic is Milanese with Florentine flavoring. How do you communicate with him, do you both speak English or Italian?View attachment 1114342
Second (last?) fitting of a char-navy Fox flannel suit. Very excited with trying Sartoria Cresent out.
