Two comments:

Ad Van Laack: this is good and precise mid price German RTW, was not aware they have a bespoke service (MTM?). Fused interlinings. Somewhat fashion forward. Branched out into apparel in general.

Ad Pink: somebody in the fabrics trade once admitted to be unhappy about what they did to his fabrics. I shall say no more

And many thanks for posting this, the to do list for my next Paris trip is getting longer and longer.

Thanks, but really it's for RWS. I hope he sees it in short order.

BYW, did you have to list the prices? Now that %#@%$ing Kabbaz is going to be tempted to raise his.

Many, many thanks, rjman, for giving us this list. It will give me pleasure and, I may hope, a picture of the elusive shirt.

RWS - I've sent you a PM. If you want the magazine, I'll send you my copy.

I had four days in Paris in April. I visited Charvet and Liste Rouge. I ordered a shirt at Liste Rouge. I forgot to ask about bespoke details (e.g. indvidual pattern) but they do make a sample shirt, and they make the shirt in France. Mr. Levy is a salesman but he knows how a shirt should be. Here are some pictures: http://thelondonlounge.net/gl/gallery/album64
