Gentlemen,

I‘ven been in Bangkok these days and have visited Tanika. She has been my choice as I‘ve read a lot of positive feedbacks on her and her taylor.
Tani has introduced her fabrics starting from brands I never heard off up to Zegna, Loro Piana.
I was wondering a bit a I read that she does a full canvased suit for 50k thb and have been informed that a half canvased suit with Zegna or Loro Piana is around 59k thb....
Another fabric looked quite nice to me made from Cavani, Australien wool. For the suit made out of Cavani wool she told its about 39k thb.
Finally, I liked the fabric but can’t find anything about this fabric in the www. (Only some „Bespoke tailors“ or a low cost suit company the UK).Does anyone in this forum knows more about Cavani fabric and gives me some feedback on the price Tanika offers?
I‘m ready to spend that amount but feel not making the best deal being in BKK with such low HR costs. My personal impression was as well, that Tanika avoided somehow that I get familiar with Zegna or Loro P. Might a margin issue ?
Will be back in BKK in 2 weeks and spent another 14 days there.
Would be great to hear some experts in this forum.
Thanks a lot !

Fours years late, but if you do order that suit using Cavani fabric, I'm afraid you got ripped off. Cavani fabric is from a Thailand dealer
