Men's Tailoring Design & Construction

All garments as seen below are bespoke. A suit coat pattern was made by me specifically for the wearer. Note there are about 32 patterns pieces in a frock coat. All construction techniques are based upon tailoring patterns and methods from the period, and extant coat examples from my collection, using contemporary materials.
