To be fair, A&S is not on Savile Row. I think you meant to say off-row is for small timers. Or He-Men. Or both. Or more particularly, small time He-Men.

It is small time for you to travel (by subway) go see your tailor. It is big time to have your tailor travel (by jet plane) to see you.

Yes to the first, no to the second especially if they come directly to your home or office.

Of course.

Do you get waistcoats with any of your suits? An interesting detail on a waistcoat I received recently is to have the neck opening in the back piped with the same cloth as the suit. It is purely "just because" and decorative as the back of the waistcoat won't show under the suit collar. This doesn't really add any bulk either. I have seen somewhere, not on anything I own, a version that has maybe a 1/2 inch collar of the cloth sewn on the back of the waistcoat. Mine is just a few mm. I am not sure if the wider version is more bulky.

Mine was taken back by the tailor, so no pics. If this thread is still alive when it returns I will try to post some.

I heard Mafoo is letting his good friend Salvatore Ambrosi sleep in his foyer. That is big time.

It is even bigger to have your shirtmaker travel (by jet plane) to visit you.

I think you also may inhale some from time to time.

He's having his friend Luca Brasi sleep with the fishes too. I guess he has a big aquarium or something.
