01. The pattern
Your measurements and posture become a paper pattern drafted by hand, kept on file for every suit you order after this one.
02. The cut
The pattern is chalked onto your cloth and cut on the table with shears, with extra inlay left in the seams so the suit can be let out years from now.
03. The baste
A jacket held together with loose white stitches. It is put on you, pulled apart, and recut where your body asks for it.
04. The finish
Hand-sewn buttonholes, real horn buttons, a pressed and shaped canvas, and working surgeon's cuffs on every sleeve.
