On behalf of Mr. Mancuso today (he's lost his login to LL) . . .

- M

Thanks very much, from Giuseppe Mancuso to The London Lounge, for give me the opportunity to share my work .

To:mmkn2. Who publish it on thelondonlounge ,

To Mr. Costi , who in the past help me a lot in translate.

And all the gentlemen for the appreciation of a 77 years old tailor's work:

Thanks to: old henry , post 438 ,-- Robert n ,post 43. --- davidhuh, post 502.-----Frans, post 22 ----------Pssst post 53 ------------Sleewfoot, post 194 --------- J,S,Groot post 249 --------

I try to answer some of question: Lining Bemberg , Material: Italian or English material , Super 150’s, which I use in standard price. Also Super 180’s , 100% Cashmere at customer request.

The material of the jacket is from material of the customer (usually I do not take material from customer).

C.Lee post 8. I did the jacket according to request , which reflects 70s style but he never mentioned 70s style. In do that lapel and collar I respected the meaning of Bespoke : do what customer like.

What I have missing on bespoke today : the work done by helper for pocket, welt, and all the stitch by hand done from a 16 years boy. A 77 year hold man can't do the same (I try).

I hope soon to have the possibility to login The London Lounge Bespoke Forum.

Please excuse me for my English.

Warm Regards,

Pino

Dear Pino,
I hope your recovered your LL connection.
You say you´re a 77 y.o. who can´t do the same but that barchetta tells me the opposite. It´s simply fantastic.
