I would like some information from people who have experience of tailors in Sydney. Who are considered the best? How much should one expect to pay for a bespoke suit?
There is a tailor near my work. His name is Sam Finocchiario, in Bathurst Street, Sydney. Has anyone heard of him? What is he like? He says people travel from Melbourne to have suits made by him. Someone said they saw Bob Carr walking into his premises. I had Sam do some repairs, but I have no idea what he is like as a cutter and stylist.
I have had a suit made by Ianni Bros in Macquarie Street in the past. I was not satisfied. It was a comfortable fit, but there was no styling. I am short and overweight, and I would like a suit to make me look better, not worse.
Which opens up another issue. How does one instruct a tailor? Does one need to do heaps of research and study? What if you don't know exactly what you want in terms of style?
I have heard of Cutler, but I am not interested in paying over $5,000 for a suit. By the time I get a waistcoat and extra trousers, I will be bankrupt!
