Received my first commission from Miyahira-san and loving it (Sorry for the crappy photo + wrinkles on sleeve from sitting at a keyboard all day)

Also placed an order for another tweed jacket and heavy flannel trousers

Haven’t gotten one but I did email them to arrange my appointment in Florence

You’ll probably get an email from his wife

Edit: I just read more carefully, it sounds like you did a first fitting already. I’d email asking about payment details.

Had my first fitting for my db suit but surprisingly he made a SB for my fitting garment so I’ve to wait till June for another round 😅 picked up a rtw polo tee from him and contemplating on a sports jacket! Lovely choice of fabrics if you can go down to Florence!

Catching the maestro back in London.
This is where it becomes the danger zone. 3rd/4th commissions and Kotaro-san has nailed it with the 2nd fittings on these as he gets more familiar with my shape each time.The balance looking good.
Another damn navy jacket!? 😂

I knew someone would pick me up on that, no.Thats not what I mean.I should put some punctuation in, was an early morning post lol.The pictures are my 3rd and 4th.He nailed it from the start but 2nd fittings this time are better as he gets more familiar with my body.
Damn boy just made me re-edit my wording 😂

No harm meant. We all know it's rare for tailors to absolutely nail it right out of the gate, but we also know Kotaro isn't most tailors ..... just wanted to see if there was something I missed in the words or photos, because these commissions look fantastic

All good man, no harm taken at all, it's the interwebs after all haha
I'm trying to step out of my conservative business dress comfort zone with colour and fabric but it's not working too well lol.
