Plaid Sport Suits and Jackets

For daytime outdoor wear, plaid is supreme. Whether you are at a wedding, the museum, or just headed out for brunch with your friends, a plaid sport coat or vest is ideal. The look is much less uptight than an evening look in black, and much less of a purely “business” look than navy. Because […]

Retro and Mod Suits–Custom Tailored

Every suit that we make is unique and made for an individual client. We don’t have 5 or 10 or even 500 designs.   For every suit that we make, we start with the client and his own sense of style. We ask him where he will wear the piece. How often he will wear […]

1909 Bespoke–Custom Tailored Retro Style Suits

Some plaids only work as a sports jacket or stand alone piece.  Make a whole suit from the plaid and it quickly becomes too much. But many windowpanes look incredible […]

Wedding in White

The groom wears black. The bride wears white. But what if the wedding is in Mexico…? The pictures show two suits that we recently made for tropical weddings. One is a 70s inspired suit cut from an off-white cotton seersucker. The other, a completely modern suit cut from a linen/rayon blend that is lighter, softer, […]

Tropical Wool Suits

"Tropical Wool." The whole idea boggles the mind of those new to the world of fine menswear. An oxymoron, surely? Customers come to us with only one thing that they are certain of: They do not want wool suits. No one would recommend a wool suit for a wedding in July in the deep South, would they?

Three-Piece Tweed Suits

It is hard to think of anything more classic than getting married in a 3-piece tweed herringbone suit. The blonde herringbone suit that you see here was designed for a customer who wanted to flavor his wedding with a bit of the old West. In particular, he wondered whether we couldn’t make him a suit […]
