So, returning to the query of Assisi. It’s slightly irritating as a fan of their bespoke that a lot has modified previously few months, however I’ve been speaking to Min Soo and different new members of the crew just lately, and may set out the occasions and plans.
Assisi was purchased final yr by The Finery Firm, which is an Australian operation Joe Ha has been working since 2014; and Dabin from Assisi has left. I don’t know Joe or the operation, however I’m positive readers from that a part of the world can fill us in on any expertise they’ve had.
Certainly one of issues TFC runs is bespoke tailoring, and the pinnacle cutter will now be Min Soo of Assisi. He’ll proceed to additionally oversee the handmade-to-measure at Assisi, which will likely be made by the identical crew in Korea.
TFC Bespoke is a distinct fashion from Assisi bespoke, however from what I’ve seen it’s very effectively made. They despatched me a go well with of Joe’s and I can attest to the standard of the work.
The fashion is extra structured and slightly extra vintage-inspired than Assisi, with a pad within the shoulder and if something a wider shoulder than Assisi too. The notch is pretty low and the single-breasted has fairly a high-rolling, three button lower. It emphasises a robust and masculine silhouette.
I’ve solely seen the one jacket, and have clearly by no means had something made, however it will likely be attention-grabbing to see extra when TFC come. That’s Joe in a go well with above. There’s a bit extra on Instagram right here.
The opposite half is Atelier Lavoro, which began a few years in the past and does classic Americana-inspired clothes, together with sack-style suiting that will likely be made by the Assisi crew in Korea.
They use a variety of classic materials, and attempt to reinterpret previous American kinds. I used to be additionally despatched some examples of Lavoro and I do just like the fashion – I wouldn’t essentially purchase those I noticed, however it’s good to have the choice of shopping for MTM workwear when it’s achieved effectively, and it will likely be good to see extra of the kinds in individual.
The pictures above and beneath are from Lavoro, and there’s extra on their Instagram right here, plus two on-line articles that cowl each – The Rake Japan and Mon Oncle journal.
When it comes to Assisi, personally I’d proceed to order MTM from them as I have already got a developed sample they’ll use. And even for others, the handmade to measure was superb when ranging from scratch.
