So I live in Mexico City and since the city pretty much shut down I decided to get myself a suit. I tried on an OTR Zegna suit that fit really well and I was going to go with that. However, I wanted a three-piece. As it turns out the store (Palacio de Hierro-reputable) does custom clothing. I returned the next day was measured and bought a three-piece suit, super 130's, more or less the same look as the Zegna suit for about $900.

Reading everything about bespoke I am curious as to what I have purchased. I have an appointment for a fitting and I was told there will be another fitting before the suit is ready. Being skeptical, I asked to see some other custom suits and I was shown another suit that looked pretty nice.

Just wanted to see if anyone has any input, good, bad , what have you.

This place is a really nice department store, I'd put this store on par with S5A. Just to add a bit of clarity to those who might be imagining a dimly lit, dusty room with a light bulb hanging down from a wire or something.

Bespoke man amidst RTW body suits. If the Sartorialist wants to win the Pulitzer, he should travel to Mexico City pronto!

Start eating lots and lots of salads, as opposed to cooked vegetables.
Cooking kills the nutrients.
Don't put dead things in your body.

Go to your pharmacy and buy Selenium With Beta Carotine.
You can buy them seperately or combined,
but you need both.
The Selenium requires the Beta Carotine as a catalyst to activate in your body.

Selenium boosts your Immune System naturally

Google it.

Selenium is naturally found in plants, seafood, meat and meat products.

Don't trust vaccines.
It has already been documented years ago that governments allow Mercury in the vaccines.
Take good care of your health naturally.
And excersize.

God help us all from these Man-Made Flu's and diseases.

I believe that a vigorous immune system response is actually the most dangerous aspect of the swine flu. This is why it is supposed to be most deadly to those in the 20-40 age bracket.
