House Style

Our house style is characterized by a full chest, slightly extended shoulders, open quarters, and a generous lapel with a low gorge. The shoulders are unpadded and the construction is soft, with just enough canvas to shape the jacket. One of the most distinctive features is the hidden dart running from armhole to pocket. Guided by the principles of traditional tailoring, our house style combines classic proportions with a silhouette designed to flatter, all while maintaining comfort.

Full Canvas

Our tailoring is made with a full and floating canvas. We use canvas to shape the chest and lapels, achieving a natural roll from the bottom towards the shoulders. Even with the jacket unbuttoned, the lapels elegantly drape away from the body, accentuating the waistline. Canvas also lets the jacket breathe, allowing it to adapt and conform to the wearer’s body shape the more it is worn.
