Hi Guys

I was recently given a length of the magnificent 1000 gram Everest cashmere to make an overcoat for a client. It is a wonderful cloth to work with and I thought I would share the progress with you.

I saw this fitting last week in London and it is truly amazing. You would love this cloth!

Seems like tailors all over the Row are truly impressed with this Everest cashmere cloth. There was a bit of a buzz at A & S as well.

I can confirm that (being the bespeaker)! I am already kicking myself because I will only make it back to London for the fitting in the new year... The cloth is gorgeous and Karl did a magnificent job. Really looking forward to seeing it with my own eyes.

Truer words have rarely been spoken, especially with respect to self-travelling bespoke clients... ;-)
