Re: George Hamilton

Hamilton is the last of the classically well-dressed Hollywood actors, and was recognized as such by the late, great George Frazier. He used to get his suits from the also late and great Dunhill Tailors (not to be confused with Alfred Dunhill) in New York.

Re: George Hamilton

I saw that interview the other day and remember being impressed with his shirt: the collar has that beautiful curve and his cuffs are nice and closely fitted: the kind of shirt that you would expect to find in Naples.

Somebody in LA needs to call Charles and track this down!

Charles has the famous CRestview telephone prefix of Beverly Hills. Sort of like the RHinelander 744- of the upper east side of NY.

Re: George Hamilton

Just goes to show how some of the best tailors aren't necessarily the best-known.

Yes, George Hamilton looked great in that interview. You don't see that much on t.v anymore. Good thread!

Re: George Hamilton

This is quite amazing information to find GH's tailor!    He certainly does beautiful work.    It's interesting that he trained in Austria rather than one of the traditional centers.   I would have guessed that GH's tailor was on SR, actually. 

Now you need to track down GH himself and have him join FNB for some real interesting conversations! 

But you're right ,  GH puts it all together beautifully, regardless the tailor.
