Alright, to start things off this morning more in the spirit of A. Harris's original thread in the S&D forum, I am going to post some samples of what is for me best-of-class examples in RTW that I would buy if lighting struck everything that I own now...and also my bespoke tailor.
We will assume full retail, and that when things are too expensive, it just means that you have to get less of it and wait longer to get your pieces together.
1. Dress Shirts: Barba
2. Neckties: Three-way tie among Nicky's and Drake's, and if they have the patterns that you want, Sam Hober.
3. Odd jackets: Borrelli Linosa/Sorrento.
4. Odd trousers (wool): Valentini Sartoriale
5. Odd trousers (cotton): Kiton (not a pic, but enjoyable nonetheless...)
6. Suits: I can't think of any. No lines wow me. Maybe Crittendon because it is cheap and softly constructed. Does anyone here own one of these new Crittendon suits yet?
7. Shoes: Vass F and U lasts.
How about for the rest of you?
