Good Day,
I am in the market for a new tuxedo. I have an old RLPL 6x2 that no longer fits and is no longer in style (at least for me). I have narrowed my search down to either a Zegna or Isaia black tuxedo. Which ever brand I do decide to wear I'm planning to have the item made-to-measure. In order to fully disclose to the forum my intentions of style and cut of each of the tuxedos I will give a brief rundown.
Isaia:
-satin label (notch or peak).
-working button and label holes.
-will request to have the jacket only 3/4 lined with very soft shoulders.
-will request to have the breast pocket slanted (boat style) to appear more like the Zegna model.
-will request to have a more slimmer model then the normal S-body from Isaia.
-of course dual vents (will request to have the vent cut longer then normal).
-pants will have a straight leg and will have a higher rise in crouch.
Zegna:
-satin peak label.
-working button and label holes.
-will request to have the jacket only 3/4 lined with very soft shoulders.
-will choose the Fit Mila model.
-of course dual vents (will request to have the vent cut longer then normal).
-pants will have a straight leg and will have a higher rise in crouch.
-ticket pocket.
Please note, I am aware of the fact that the Isaia tuxedo will run almost $1000 more then the Zegna and do not care. If you are haven't seen the newest Zegna Fit Mila tuxedo I recommend that you visit your nearest Zegna store or better yet...
