My New Suit (& my new scoot)





























Whilst clearing out an old part of our shop I happened across some old fabrics. Amongst these fabrics were some fantastic suit lengths, some of which date back decades. I found this piece of Dormeuil Tonik 3-Ply Mohair which dates back from the 60's or 70's and being the sort of person who enjoys all things MOD I decided to have a suit made.








The suit is not an exact MOD style of suit. It is a slim-fit, however it is a 2 button single breasted with side vents in a 3.piece. Note the real button cuffs and the real horn buttons. It also has a monogram inside and a fancy two-tone lining & white striped sleeve lining.














A Modern MOD style suit for my modern scoot.

























My GTS300 was purchased at the wonderful STEADS in Romford: http://www.steads.co.uk/
