Update on three works in progress for me.

Two 6x1 DBs:
Walnut Melange FA-16 from Fox Air
Green S160s & 1% cashmere English bolt I have had laying around for about ten years.

Lastly, a single breasted peak lapel, one button, in Ascot 2-ply (brown/grey 18017).

I think he has lowered the gorge very slightly from my last peak lapel, which was also a DB. This may be because I asked him to lower the gorge on my notch lapel jacket pattern. Looks a bit lower than I think I want, but let's see what happens when I get it and try it on. Whatever it is I will live with it because the rest of the details look great. :bigstar:
They look great! Love the Ascot especially.

What's the most reliable way to find out when their next US trunk show(s) are? Instagram? Looking for NYC dates...

Instagram or send them a message on WhatsApp. Someone also usually posts here from each city. I don’t think flights have been booked yet but think Antonio will be back in October

Great, thanks! Your suits were what made me decide to give them a look, btw. Really nice.

In another thread @Marshak had asked how my LP seersucker turned out. Running out of days to wear it but decided to pull it out today even though the weather doesn’t really justify it topping out in the mid-80s. This thing is stupidly light weight at 180 GMS. Pretty sure I have shirts that weigh more than it.

Decided to pair it with some shoes that are suspiciously square.

FYI for the SF guys. Antonio has started announcing the fall trunk show schedule. Think he’s sending the booking link to existing customers and then he will post publicly. Edit/ he posted the links. Dropping them here.

Paris 9/28-29
Munich 9/29-30
Frankfurt 9/30-10/1
New York 10/12-13
Minneapolis 10/13-14
LA 10/15-16

Maybe a bit tight. I will wear once or twice a discuss with Antonio afterwards. He already offered to adjust if needed.
I’d have him let it out. They don’t look balanced compared to the rest of the suit. (I’m looking at the first photo, but it could just be the angle.)

Have been on leave for a bit hanging out with our little one. Had a meeting pop up I couldn’t get out of and the forecast looks like today me be the last day I can get away with linen this year (at least when I’m not on vacation) so I took the opportunity to pull my summer project out.
