Hi my name is charlie alba I have a tie collection I love wereing my tie I my life it makes me feel like I am a business man and that is what I wanted to do have my own privit business to be a writer

Just bought a Kiton Cashmere overcoat. It’s around 17k usd. Love it so much! Love double breasted overcoat!

The suit Gaetano is wearing is just amazing, the fabric, the pattern and fit... aah! and he wears it fantastically as well! I'm American and I used to go to Brioni and other main stream fashion houses like Gucci for my suits till I started watching Sartorial Talks. Now In my next Italy trip I'll surely visit Gaetano's antelier.

Shirt collar over a suit jacket will make a man look like a rube. Just get your suit altered by a tailor.

Thank you for the content. I am trying to find books about these topics, can you recommend good ones ?

You lost me when you started swooning over failed cia operative anderson cooper.

Rule #1: Emulate Hugo’s every mannerism and idiosyncrasy.

Rules of Civility was read by and applied by General George Washington.

To fight moths: Leave your garment in the freezer for 4 days. Then keep it safe in a clean clothes bag. Also: lavender oil is disliked by moths, while I quite like the scent.

Hugo absolutely hates Hugo Boss. He brings it up whenever the opportunity arises haha

I watched everything here. Very educational. Thank you!

love this moment, i've learned a lot in english

Thank you for your beautiful video! I would kindly ask you to make an extensive video specifically for monks traps. They are so en vogue these days so that they deserve a special edition just for them. Merci beaucoup!

Didn't Dunhill sell 2 pants in a suit for this exact reason?

What's wrong with looking like a banker in the 80s? Those were the normal times compared to now... And fashion rotates anyway

My problem is the moth holes. Smh

Always illuminating and enlightening

The waistcoat for me is essential..........comfort, style and temperature control especially in a job where I stand and move a lot. I never looked back after buying my first 3 piece suit ☕

Very insightful, thanks for sharing, Hugo and Sonya. I truly appreciate it. Regarding the lower armhole issue, it is indeed true that prevention is better than healing. However, I happen to have a relatively cheap black funeral suit with sentimental value, making it hard to replace. And, of course, it has a lower armhole. The solution I found, besides restricting my posture, is that leaving the button open helps make the pulling less obvious as well. After all, if not in my situation, a fitted armhole is the way to go. Regardless, thank you so much for the invaluable and informative video.

Thank you for this informative, helpful, --and timely presentation!

About proper jacket-legnth: A sartorially wise, older gentleman advised that jackets "should cover nutz 'n butts"

I love that color suit Hugo!

Well, no wonder invisible menders are hard to find - they are invisible, after all.

I'm a gentleman. I don't mind.

The Bespoke Oxfords (alligator & calf) by Stephane Jimenez † absolutely beautiful

The button hole on the lapel is for a boutonniere. A big trend the last few years, where I live anyway, is to have fabric flowers to pin there, especially in a sport coat.

The "pinky method or little finger" I do exactly the same with my tailor, I simply place my hands on my tummy, the button line should be somewhere around, I needs to look "sprezzatura" effortlessly looking good and fitting good without me trying to hard. If the button it not near there then he adjust it as requested.

A very interesting video concept. Regarding the collar gaps, my initial thought is to try a different dress shirt collar style thats wider or to get a shirt that has a slightly longer collar. Unfortunately the small lapel trend seems to be extending to even shirt collars if you're buying fast fashion and big brand labels!

Funny thing is, I never had problems with moth holes. Maybe they're not common where I live (southeast Brazil), or maybe it's because I keep a very minimalistic wardrobe, so there's no time for them to get cozy on my clothes.

A bad suit is not about money, its for tailoring facts 💞

Sony and Hugo look like pretty much the Same. Same hair cut, same glasses, same suit and ties.......almost twins

Mr. Jacomet, my preference of the button Stance of the jacket should be Lined up with the waistband of the trousers

the purple and dark blue shantung from the urban ties is just amazing. just ordered one for myself.

Dear Hugo, dear Sonia. I follow you channel since many years now, at the beginning in french, and now in french and english. You taught me the love of beautiful clothes and artisans (many neapolitan taillors, Zizolfi and Sabino). Although beautiful pieces, these clothes do not make me at ease when I wear them, I remain a jeans and basket man, when I dress up I feel like a white bear in Sahara! So my problem is not really to look good in bad suits, but not look too bad in good suits! For me that is the main problem I ask myself. Maybe a future video! But congratulations for your work in any case! Cheers

Hi, Hugo and Sonya Glyn! Thanks for this video- it's always great to hear your thoughts on MTM custom makers. I've mentioned to you before and want to highlight again Mr. Cavaliere in Toronto, who I use for all my tailoring these days. He works with a factory in China, but makes fantastic suits and jackets for me very affordably. I know Sonya Glyn has seen several of the pieces I've had from him on my Instagram.

I would think the main pocket issue pops up when a suit is shortened, the balance of the waist pockets can be thrown off.

I received a 50 year old tweed jacket from my Dad that had a moth hole in the shoulder, and I had a tailor stitch over it to stabilize the cloth, but the mend is visible. I consider it part of the story of the item, sort of a wabi sabi approach. I don't know that I'd want to do that with a more formal garment, but for something more casual like a tweed, I think it was the right choice for me.

INFORMATIVE DISCUSSION, THANK YOU --- I WOULD PERSONALLY SUGGEST A WHOLE KZbin SEGMENT DEDICATED TO SUIT BUTTON POSITIONING. Your conversation on buttons was intriguing but I found myself wanting many more visual examples of correctly and incorrectly done buttons on various types of suit jackets ---- for example, tuxes (often one button), two button suit jackets, and three button suit jackets, and so on. I think this is one of the most misunderstood aspects of suit jackets, fit, tailoring, etc. In fashion, we learn as much from visuals as from conversation, yes? I found the few visuals you provided insufficient........anyway, thanks again, always enjoy hearing what you both have to say.

Your videos are very interesting and relaxing at the same time, always a pleasure to watch 🙂 We don't get tired with details, many people appreciate them. Your attention to details is one of the reasons I like your videos 🙂 Waistcoats are very cool indeed, I collect them, both suit waistcoats and sportier ones (female here).

It's absolutely true, this GuiBo guy has an Elegance that many don't have. He has a very particular style all his own. Associated with his elegant wife it forms the perfect combo.

My dear Sonya, we never get exhausted from you or Hugo at all ))), thank you so much for this unique topic full of small details. Actually its all about details in Sartorial world .Both of your outfits are amazing ,Much respect & Love from Cairo.

A always - excellent episode! You guys really rock! Thank you!

Chicken Foot/Zampa di Gallina does not make the stitch stronger. It is purely aesthetic. Once it was a sign of handsewn buttons which is why the Italians especially were so proud to show it off but nowadays machines can imitate it as well. (For example Savile Row tailors don't use it.) The handsewn button will always be stronger than a machinesewn if done right though! By a lot. That is why on RTW the buttons often fail so fast. Another tip that I can give: the machine made pick stitching on RTW suits can often look very cheap, like a nail gun was used. But you can actually easily replace this one with a handsewn pick stitch. Even yourself! It is really simple, just remove the old pick stitch and then handsew a new one which will then look finer. It might even trick seasoned sartorialists into thinking your suit was handmade. Can be combined with your tip on replacing the lapelhole. I had this replacement of the lapelhole done once on a jacket btw and my tailor told me it is easier if the lapelhole has not been opened yet because the cloth can fray.

dear Sonya and Hugo, thank you for these always didactic subjects, pleasantly surprised to understand most of what you said in English! ☺️ I myself have a few costumes from another era that will come out of the closet 😅 thank you for all that...🙏🏻

Hugo, what fabric are those pants?

Sonja mentioned about Paul Smith and Canada. I look a look at my Paul Smith sports jacket, and noted that it was made in Canada. What an interesting video!

Most people don't know that John Lennon originally titled the song "Give Three-Piece A Chance". 😎
