Your first trunk-show visit
What happens in the room, what to bring, and how the next visits are planned before you leave.
A trunk-show visit is two days in a private fitting room in London, New York, Sydney or Singapore. You come for one appointment of about an hour. The fitter brings cloth books, your pattern if you have one, and the garments due for fitting on that visit.
What to bring
Wear the shoes you expect to wear with the suit, and bring a shirt of the collar size you usually wear. If you have a jacket you like, bring it.
Before you leave the room
We agree the next visits before you leave: usually the baste fitting on the next visit to the same city and the forward fitting on the one after. The written quotation follows by email, and nothing is cut until you agree it.
