As you might have sensed in a recent post on Parisian tailors Cifonelli, I was rather taken with Lorenzo’s stylistic details. That led to a commission for a Harris tweed jacket including his slash pockets, five-button front up to the throat, suede undercollar, suede reverse to the cuffs and suede tab on the breast pocket.

Tan/green tweed with some nice flecks of colour. One fitting in Paris using an old piece of flannel, a basted fitting here in London and then finished for delivery in a couple of weeks. With the option of a few tweaks later in the Spring when Lorenzo is in London again. Pretty speedy.
