Hey guys,

The Samuelsohn event started at Harry's today. Made to measure on clearance fabrics is $1095. They had a decent selection, with some staple fabrics as well (solid navy and charcoal).
I have my appointment on Thursday. Were there any spring or summer weight open weave fabric for $1095, specifically a navy fresco or hopsack?

I would like to get a summer suit with natural shoulders, light canvassing, and minimal lining. Has anyone had something similar made through the Samuelsohn MTM program? I understand that's not Samuelsohn's typical style so am I better off getting something RTW or going with a bespoke tailor?

Speaking of bespoke has anyone used Bulloch Tailors or has seen their work to offer an opinion on the house style and construction quality? They were mentioned once on the MTM/bespoke tailors thread and have a store closing sale offering bespoke suit at $1795 for super 100-130. If there are other good true bespoke tailors in the city that does it for even less I'd like to hear about them and your experience with them.

I'd recommend the Ashton Soft model with half lining. Didn't see fresco, but a few all season.

So, big thanks to @ADub for this tip-off. I've been in Via Cavour today and managed to get two sport coats (I am waiting for my wife to return from work, at which point I'll be executed in front of children).

Anyways, there are still some Pal Zileri stuff left, if someone is looking for suits/jackets in $500-$700 range (for mainline) or $1000 (for Sartoriale).

Did you see anything in size 38/48?

I'm sorry, but I really wasn't looking what they have in other sizes. There are two racks (if I remember correctly) full of suits and jackets, so if you're around, try to drop by, or maybe just give them a call.
