Taliare / Erlend Nordby - New bespoke tailor in Marylebone

[bond_and_beyond]

Has any member tried this tailor? I think they opened a year or two ago?

I've not tried them. I believe that Mr Nordby, before setting out on his own, for a while took over the 'front of house' of Stephan Haroutunian Shirts, in Fulham. I had a shirt made by them during that period (several years ago); it was to the usual (good but not great) standard. I recall Mr Nordby (if I'm not confusing people) as personable and helpful.

Luca is correct. Having taken over the short business, he launched a MTM range, but I cannot comment on the quality, nor can I on his background or experience in bespoke.

I too had some shirts made by Erlend at Stephan Shirts about five years ago and would echo Luca's comments.

Just to add a little more detail. The shirts were fitted by Erlend but still made in the usual SH factory (Cyprus? I forget). He also offered an MTM service where he did the measuring but then used an Eastern European factory to do the making. Finally, he offered handmade bespoke at a higher price level (I recall a little less than GBP2k back then, but I may be wrong). I know he did the measuring and cutting but not sure how much if any of the making he did.
