the profoundly unofficial I Sarti Italiani thread

[imatlas]

Does anyone have the location info? I don't see it in my email confirmation. Feel free to DM if you have it.

Waffle House obviously.

Thanks.

dieworkwear and urbancomp did a good job of describing it on page 1

Stopped by the SF trunk show last night. It was good to see Salvo again and to have a chance to catch up with Peter.

Glad to have I Sarti Italiani back on the circuit and hoping this trip is a success.

Thanks. I think I'll stick to the unextended roundish shoulder.

Thanks again for hosting us and translating, Peter! Great to see you and Salvo.
For those who couldn't make it, here's a few shots from the trunk show. First, Salvo, Peter, and @Moraga'd looking at some beautiful Fox fabrics:

I believe @imatlas's gorgeous corduroy suit:

A super-soft, fairly lightweight cashmere overcoat:

Peter's newest sport coat:

A great mottled wool, silk, linen, I believe:

DWW summer tweed, I think:

Many more in the wic turned dressing room:

I forgot to take any pics of my stuff. (Maybe Peter did and could post a couple?) But I did get a shot of probably my next SC, Drapers/VBC 16 oz, 6 ply in medium-dark brown:

Looking forward to the next visit!

Cool thread. And threads. Thanks, fellas.

Hey @emptym, here you are in that incredible corduroy jacket. My photos don't do it justice....

Ah, thanks a bunch! Those help me to confirm the few adjustments we decided on: sleeves to be lengthened, widened, and rotated a bit. The chest widened a smidge too, and the front given extra buttons like a Luxire jacket I have, so that the lapels and collar can be turned up and fastened against the cold. And I think widening the pant hems is a good idea. Thanks for the help in deciding that.

I was wrong about the corduroy. It’s not Brisbane Moss 16 oz, but Huddersfield/Minnis #9366 which is 700 gr/mr or 20 oz/yd.

Twenty ounce makes more sense, it was definitely robust! Thanks for sharing the details.

Great seeing everyone! Here are some pics from today:

Peter, thank you so much for your help. It was wonderful to see you and Salvo today.

I wanted to thank Peter for organizing it. I just got back from my appointment and it was really great to meet Salvo and Peter. Salvo seems like a great and genuine guy (even though we could not talk very much given the language barrier).

Really excited for the final product next year.

Trunk shows are resuming.
