Re: Three different tailors - Three very different bespoke suits
There is a myth going around on the internet that all coats for all wearers have to be cut with drape and made up with unpadded shoulders. Des Merrion, on his website blog, talked about certain zealots forcing the notion of the drape cut onto others on the internet. The same can be said about unpadded shoulders.
BTW my own tailors claims to have seen work brought to him from Savile Row by his customers for alterations and that their workmanship was often atrocious.
