I recently received my 1st suit from Cifonelli and I wanted to share some photos (of the shoulder)...

It was a pleasure working with M. Lorenzo and M. Massimo and I can't wait until my fitting for #2.

It is as though it floats just above the lapel. Quite exquisite.

I don't think that i have seen Cifonelli pictured on a client before.

If you can, it would be wonderful to see a picture of the suit worn by you....

Are you happy with the result?

Thank you for your reply. I'm very happy with the result, but prefer not to post a photo of myself (sorry).

There are, however, photos on the internet of the Parisian Gentleman wearing Cifonelli...

Best regards.

Thank you for sharing :D
Could you tell a little more about your experience?
What made you choose Cifonelli? What was different compared to other houses?

Good evening,

My experience with Cifonelii was pleasant from the first meeting to the delivery. They are very professional and also quite friendly.

My order was placed at one of their visits to NYC followed by two basted fittings in NYC (at the second basted fitting the pants were already finished). Final fitting and delivery was in Paris. The turn around time was about 4.5 months.

After visitng a few tailors I chose Cifonelli basically because I felt most comfortable with them. I never felt pressured or rushed and was left with the confidence that everything would be handled appropriately. Also, the clothing is beautiful. I quite like the line to the suit and the workmanship is superb.

Best.
