It is time to look for something fresh. Something, dare I say, fun. The old formalwear is dead and gone. After decades of being stuck in an endless repeat, formalwear is back to what is was in the earlier 20th century and before:

In the United States, we tend to call the best business and formal looks and fits “European” or “Italian” or “British,”–sometimes for good reason, and sometimes merely as a shorthand for saying that a look is “good” or “exciting” or somehow intangibly different from the basic relaxed New England look that we are used to […]

Every year, many of our clients choose to get married in tails. Sometimes in classic white tie, sometimes in a swallowtail look or in one of our military or steampunk styles. Tailcoats and morning coats have deep roots in tradition, but in the modern era can be some of the most unique and expressive pieces […]

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 […]

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 […]

We make custom tailcoats. Classic 1930s, Edwardian, Steampunk, a bit retro, a bit modern. Just let us know what you are looking for and we will start sketching and putting fabrics together. Our complete suits are muslin fit.

Our completely custom line of suits–which are individually handmade to order right here in our studio in Denver, Colorado–often have a vintage flair to them. Philosophically, our suits hark back to what we consider to be the most interesting period for men’s dress—the period between 1907 and 1921–when many of the distinctive looks of modern […]

The Victorian era was an age of excitement, experimentation, science, and progress. Everything seemed possible and imminent.   The material world was like a door about to be unlocked.  The mind was a mystery that science could pry into. We love to make steampunk clothing because it represents this moment and uncovers the analogies between […]

For the growing number of vegans buying fine wedding attire and business suits can be difficult. It can be nearly impossible to find a suit that is made without the use of animal products. Nearly every part of a traditional suit is made from an animal product. The buttons are made from horn or shell, […]

We are proud to be one of the few tailors in the US that makes garments from scratch in our workshop. Most places that offer “tailoring” merely alter existing ready made garments. Others offer made-to-measure suits by brands such as Tom James that are produced in centralized factories. But we run a tailoring house on […]
