The garment

What is included
The sitting, a pattern drafted for you and kept on file, and two fittings. Full canvas: add ₹15,000.

Asked before a first jacket
What should a first jacket be?
A navy hopsack. It works with grey trousers, with denim, and with most invitations the city sends.
Will it work with trousers I already own?
Bring them to the fitting and we balance the jacket against them. Or have the trousers made to go with it.
A jacket or a suit first?
If your week is meetings, the suit. If it is dinners, travel and Fridays, the jacket.
Which buttons?
Horn or corozo as standard; brass on request. Decided with you at the fitting.
Commission it from your wardrobe.
Your figures are on file; the house confirms every detail with you before anything is cut.
