The Ballad of Cary Grant’s Suit in North by Northwest

North by Northwest isn’t about what happens to Cary Grant, it’s about what happens to his suit. The suit has the adventures, a gorgeous New York suit threading its way through America. The title se…

Does anyone have experience with Enzo Custom? I saw their ads on Instagram. I think they are in BH

Enzo Custom is a small chain. Fairly well regarded for the price.

What is their price point? How is the quality of their shirts?

If I wanted to move up the ladder from the usual Southern California suspects, is there a non-LA bespoke tailor that comes to LA often enough that it wouldn't take over a year to commission one suit due to their limited travel schedule? I would love to order something with Henry Poole & Co but it looks like I'd have to wait until November to be measured, about 6 months for my first fitting and likely much longer after that until the suit is completed.

Antonio Pastena, a tailor that many of us use on this forum. He is visiting Los Angeles May 26-29. I help him coordinate his Los Angeles visits and started the thread for his work which you can find here: https://www.styleforum.net/threads/the-unofficial-sartoria-pastena-elegance-naples-thread.706732/

He visits every three months now and can turn around a suit for you in that much time.

Message me if you would like an appointment during this next visit.

I am one visit away from picking up my first suit by Johnathan Behr. I did a fitting today and am very pleased with the way everything is turning out. With other tailors, I’ve had trouble getting the back of my collar to lay snug without a gap in addition to trouble with the lapels laying flat on my chest. Bespoke included. This jacket by JB just worked right out of the gate. Working with him has been a pleasure. I’ll post photos when it’s complete in a couple of weeks.

If anyone is interested, I posted some photos of my suit from Johnathan Behr over here:
