pardon my ignorance, you meant you would need another hook to go through the circle to hang your suit?

What kind of hanger ALT provides?

Plastic.

The Ikea stuff are for 18" shoulders. Mine are 17". I use Daiso hangers.

Now ..tell us where did u get that nice wax and daiso hanger.....

I have a better idea...

I am avoiding that B&S like the plague. Stop reminding me of it.

This guy is calling your name:



Seriously though, this Zegna stuff is fantastic. Pity they don't make it like that anymore. A fresco-esque weave in F.U. colors is a dream of mine.

Lols, the cloth has just been spoken for anyway..

Needs a bit more work with another fitting, but almost there..



I am ashamed to admit that I chickened out and skipped the fishtail back. Not man enough.. next project perhaps.

The best made in Malaysia jacket (contemporary, not vintage) I've seen was a display suit of a pathetic little tailor in Campbell Complex. I believe it is better made than any ALT stuff. It is fused, of course, but it was very structured and beautiful. Just beautiful. To die for, really. I spent an afternoon looking at many dozen suits in many shops, and this one suit stood out amongst them. But the shop was a hole-in-the-wall and the proprietor was unkept, had a wispy little mustache, wore a worn T-shirt and shorts and sandals. The carpet was threadbare, the cutting board was melamine laminate with large pieces broken off.

I asked to see that display suit, and he gladly handed it to me.

"But this isn't from your shop, is it? The label says it isn't," I remarked.

"No, it isn't mine. A tailor friend of mine loaned it to me to see if I can sell it. He says he rarely wears it."

I noted down the label, and I looked up the shop many times in the internet. They are supposed to have 2 branches, but one was in a shopping mall that crumbled upon itself and the other somewhere else. I called the numbers given but both lines were no longer active. Sigh.
