Pretty self explanatory, had to pack my fairly new suit in a small suitcase for travel recently, and unfortuntely when unpacking it seems a stubborn wrinkle has formed on the collar. Whats the best route of attack for this? Simply finding a reputable dry cleaner and having them press the collar...

I received this Lardini suit today, I feel like the should is a bit off. It does not look that bad from the front but it is easy to spot from the side. Is this the shoulder divot that people terrifying about? I did not have such problem with a Lardini blazer and all other suits that I own...

I’ve recently moved to Lisbon and need to find a tailor(s) to make a few suits and shirts. I’ve previously lived in NY, Houston, London and Mexico City where I always had access to numerous, proper tailors but I’m lost in Lisbon. I’ve searched the archives and come up with nothing. Any...

I have this 2-button pinstripe suit (image attached) and is wondering if this moderate pinstripe is out of style.

Hi. I am wondering about contacting a tailor to make a mohair fabric suit. I am a little bit familiar with mohair/wool fabric. But do anybody have experience with mohair fabric where mohair is more then 60% of the fabric? Lora Piana has 56% mohair fabric. Burberry is selling some suits and...

I searched but couldn't find a comprehensive list of customizable options for a bespoke suit. I think this would be beneficial for anyone creating a suit so that they can be sure to get all the details that they want. I'm not including very basic options (e.g., single v. double breasted), as...

Hello gentlemen, I was wondering on how to sell suits on Ebay. I find the website is quite confusing, as I am used to the more canadian version of Ebay, Kijiji. How do people pay, with Paypal? I live in Canada, is shipping gonna be a problem? In your experience, what are the suits that...

Hello gentlemen, I am seeking to re-expand my "gentleman's wardrobe" and in search of a suit and a blazer. I started an exercise regimen and lost some weight along the way, therefore no longer fit into my suits and blazer; and the items are not able to be tailored this drastically. I am a 28...

Is this suit jacket too short? I just received this suit in the mail, and it's shorter than I expected it to be. I generally wear a 38S, which is usually about 28.5" from the bottom of the collar, but this jacket is about 27.5". The vendor doesn't have the same jacket in 38R, so if this jacket...

Hi Everybody, I'm looking to buy a suit off of Ebay and measured a jacket that fits me well for sizing comparisons. I found a Brooks Brothers suit that I like, however the Ebay listing says there are some very fine puckers on the front of the jacket. The jacket is NWT though which is strange. I...

Was pretty set on Black Lapel simply because they offer free returns or remakes. Stumbled upon Lanieri and love their online custom visualization tool... I'm also Italian so may just be a sucker for anything Italian made. Also love some of the prints from Oliver Wicks. What is your...

It sounds as if I may be getting a custom made to order suit for Christmas. I have done the "off the rack" tailored to fit thing before, but given this this likely will be my first truly custom suit, I would appreciate some very helpful advice so I get the "perfect suit".

Hello, New lawyer here. UK based. Slim. A neophyte in my field definitely. I would like recommendations for a black suit principally to fool myself into thinking that I looked serious and I am a bastion of gravitas and solemnity... appearing in court does require an act of sorts and it might...

Hi everyone! I'm collecting photos for me to show my tailor when I go there for some alterations. I found pictures that suits what I want, but finding photos of the back of a well fitting suit on the internet is quite hard. I'm aiming for a classic style. Could anyone point me to a thread...

Hi everyone! I've been wondering how much I could shorten my suit jacket sleeves lenght? I picked up 6 suits and 2 jackets that are like-new, they are entirely hand made and they fit me pretty well. They were all coming from the same person. The thing is; I have a large body but i'm relatively...

Just want opinions if this Blazer looks ok, bearing in mind its a slim fit one and i think the bottoms like that cause the vent has not been cut yet Thanks

I need some help. I'm a teenager who loves suits (I know it sounds weird), but I don't know where to wear them. My father has a lot of nice and classic suits that look good on me (thee-piece suits, double breasted ones, three-buttoned, all of them with large lapels and pocket squares) and I wish...

Hi all, I'm hoping someone can help me identify: the fabric (Super 1xx), mill source (Italy?), manufacturer (Corneliani?), etc. I know similar questions have been asked but I couldn't find a very recent thread and am hopeful someone here knows the deal.

Hey guys, I'm 14 and I love suits. It's weird, I feel weird. I wish I could wear a suit every time. When I was 11 I started wearing my father's suits, shirts and tieswhen I was alone at home (I still do it). I never had a real suit. I used to wear a cheap suit when I was a child, but I hated...

I'm new to buying these name brand fabrics, but since buying a Charles Clayton and VBC, I won't buy anything less. They are just an amazing difference in the lower end fabrics in look and feel. Never did I realize it was all in the fabric. Anyway, I live in Japan and get my suits from a local...
