The Unofficial Sartoria Pastena Elegance Naples Thread

[Texasmade]

Nothing new for me this time. I know I saw my man @Sreezy36 on Pastena's IG, though

Process of elimination on who I had an accidental meatup with.

Hi everyone!
I’m planning on attending an upcoming trunk show.
I’m in contact with him via WhatsApp, but due to language barriers, I’d like your input on a couple of questions:

-what’s the consensus on his shirt offering? He quoted a very competitive price for bespoke shirts and claimed everything was done in-house. He asked for my size to bring a sample shirt - sounds like mtm?
-to those who use him for shirts: how many shirts did it take to perfect the fit?
-after that, do you just contact him and have everything shipped or do you normally collect during trunk shows?
-given your experience, how hard is it to communicate in general and eg for a longer style than his Neapolitan style that’s on the shorter and slimmer side? I know it’s normally frowned upon to deviate from a house style but I reckon he’s more of a „salesmen“ than a strict advocate of a certain style
-do you pay everything upfront?

The results in this thread are really impressive, especially given the price point so I’m really intrigued.

I just ordered a first shirt so cant tell you the end result, but we used a couple different of his sample shirts to steal sizes from each and then messed with a few individual fit items to come up with the plan for a first shirt.

Also waiting on a first suit, but he's super flexible IMO re changes from default, which was mostly done at the first fitting stage. Antonio's english in-person is good; you'll have no concerns with that.
