Re: Charvet
"Get Shirty"? What a queer title. I appreciate the ties but the shirts are far too expensive for what they are.

Re: Charvet
I like the colors and patterns of the ties Charvet supplies but they are too thin ( no body) for my taste and the silk is rather delicate ( to put it nicely). I wouldn't pay list for their products. I'd have to buy a Charvet shirt to comment on those.

Re: Charvet
The Portfolio article was pre-recession. I wonder how the bespoke/MTM shirt business is doing now.

Re: Charvet
I went several times to the shop.
During the sales, I tried on a trial shirt. A button fell down.
I told :" This is a bad sign"
The saleswoman told me :" It is an old shirt washed and used many times".
I told : " So like a shirt used in normal life"
The sleeves were too short. Even the longest ones.
Question : Is Charvet for short harmed people ?
