    Chicago Tailor? Official Thread

    I've only been to Golden needle, Maria is great. It's usually runs me 100 to have the sides taken in on a jacket, so it's not cheap.

    Ask A Question, Get An Answer... - Post All Quick Questions Here (Classic menswear)

    I am going to NYC for a vacation. When in a store like Tom Ford, is it kosher to take a picture of yourself in a suit to see how it looks, or this gauche? Also, any recommendations for places I should not miss (menswear wise) in NYC? EDIT: after reading and old (2007) NYT about poor service...

    Chicago suit stores?

    Wilfred Newman has a sale for one custom made suit for $445 on Gilt City Chicago. http://www.wilfrednewman.com/ It doesn't look terribly impressive to me, maybe I am dead wrong.

    Mention it to a SA and they will give you the discount without the code. I know the staff at the Chicago store are usually friendly and will help you out.

    slimming a brooks madison suit?

    Unfortunately the shoulders cannot be fixed. Also if every single aspect of the suit needs to be taken in it's not worth it, even if the shoulder did fit.

    Ralph Lauren Black Label Suit - Pricing?

    As stated earlier RLBL staple suits do not go on sale in the RL store. They were on Gilt for 500 in 2010, IDK if they ever will be again. Honestly, they are rare to find in sizes 36-38 on styleforum, and even more rare in a staple color. They are quickly snapped up. I looked for one for awhile...

    Chicago suit stores?

    I am interested to see what replies to you get. Chris Despos is out of this price range, but I have heard he is the best in Chicago. Balani suit pockets can be pulled out to act as a PS?

    E. Marinella shop in London

    I am guessing there is no place to buy E. Marinella ties online, and even if there was, it would be very expensive? edit: https://morigimilano.com/ties/e-mari...li/cat_18.html nevermind

    Took the plunge with RLBL. Critque?

    According to their lookbook it is "midnight blue with waistcoat". from http://bondclothes.blogspot.com/2010...-and-take.html If you already knew what midnight blue was I hope I did not insult. I had no idea until I read the blog.

    Peak vs. notch for suit lapel?

    Peak lapel makes men of shorter stature appear taller. I read this in Manton's book, the suit.
