On your frame

  • Tall and leanKeep the tunic long and let the trouser break once; you can carry the volume.

What to do next

01 — The introduction

If this is the shape you want, tell me the occasion and date and I will point you at the right house for it.

Tell me the occasion, the date and your budget bracket. Within 24 hours you get back: two or three houses I would actually approach and why those and not others, the alterations to insist on for your build, a realistic timeline for your date, and a short written brief you can hand to the tailor at the first fitting.

  • No fee, no commission, nothing sold here.
  • If nobody I trust fits your date or budget, I say so.
  • Read by me, answered by me.
