Re: Raphael, Corvato.
Marc,
MORE PICS PLEASE!
Sorry. Nobody's said it, but I think I speak for all readers when I say: your pics are porn that is better than any porn any day.
Over the top but true!
Cheers.

Marc,
Do you still have those Savile Row suits in your wardrobe?

^ oh no lol. That's insane. Raph couldn't fix them, or at least the ones made with really great fabric (though I'm guesing that's all of them)?
Cheers.

Re: Raphael, Corvato.
^ I just love it. Drop four or five grand on the Row for a suit, then take it to Savile Row of New York to make it presentable. Oh well, at least you get to say you had a suit made at a place holding some worthless warrant from some worthless royalty. Which makes me think: you should create a Grayson family coat of arms and present the warrant to Raph! It would be hilarious yet appropriate, being that you must be one of his best customers, if not his best.
Cheers.

I'm guessing A&S won't suffer - too many people are convinced it's the Cadillac of bespoke.
And therein lies the problem: it's the Cadillac of bespoke.
Cheers.

Re: Raphael, Corvato.
It would be awesome if Raphael just came out of nowhere and registered on some MB and posted the following as his first post: "EVERYTHING YOU EVER WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT A NEOPOLITAN BUTT SEAM". He could then then agonize over every last detail of the butt seam of a pair of bespoke trousers, such as exactly how much cloth to leave inside there for letting out later, placement of the rear adjuster, etc., just to tantalize and mock the MB world. It would be glorious.
Cheers.

Re: Raphael, Corvato.
I am close to commissioning mister Corvato for a suit. I look forward to the experience. He appears to me a very strait up front person.
