MyCustomTailor question

Does anyone own one of their "Hollywood drape" suits? What fabric would be appropriate for that of the 30's? And lastly, hows the quality?
Thanks, Jason

I would check out some of the posts on AskAndyaboutClothes.com before I ordered anything from them. Apparently there can be issues with fit and orders being followed although I think there are a number of people who are quite happy with their suits in the end.

Well. Thanks alot. I figured the fit wouldnt be perfect, so you can always go to a tailor and get the small problems fixed.

I'm not sure what a "Hollywood Drape" suit is. You can order fabric swatches from them, to see it directly.

I'd recommend your ordering a "classic" suit from them first - just to check them out without risking that much money. They have tweeds, corduroy, and linen in that line, which couldn't be that far off.

I have a three-piece classic linen suit from them that makes me look like a character from "Death on the Nile." I enjoy it. (I going to have to get an Optimo-blocked Panama from Panama Bob next year to go along with it. )It's less than a year old, but no problems so far.
