Excellent presentation, especially the diplomatic manner of Ms. Glyn's explanation, avoiding snobbery. Thank you.

[@sonyaglyn7035]

Your reply is close to my heart. Thank you so much. ~Sonya

[@JDAfrica]

Your videos are addictive Sonya! Such a wealth of knowledge, and i can see your love for this industry - you explain terms and concepts so well. I love how polished your videos are, without being ‘clinical’ or preachy, but also not over produced.

[@Likwidl]

Love how she explains everything as if she's talking to a beginner without being condescending. She also looks stunning in that suit. More women should wear suits !

Women "should" wear what women want to wear, like everyone else, you snobby himbo. Where were you brought up? In a patriarchal dictatorship, I suppose.

[@shamuscoghlan]

Well said, "don't judge as ppl are on different parts of their journey". Unlike some other so called advisors who come across as total Aholes for trying to appear elite.

Hello, Shamus. I feel sensitive about the tonality of presentation here, and I'm grateful for your feedback. ~Sonya

[@shaunacole1]

Above all, the classiest thing anyone can do is not to judge. 👍🏾

[@hotcoffee6911]

I worked in women fashion retail, it's sad but men tailoring craft is the last standing icon for craftsmenship in clothing against mass production

[@sonyaglyn7035]

I have to agree with you and can only hope artisanal dress making makes a come back. Stranger things have happened! ~Sonya

[@jervill1]

That's because a lot of women's fashion retail is disposable. A good man's suit (even some off the peg made to measure) will last at least a decade even when continually adjusted. A very good man's suit, looked after, will last a lifetime.

[@MsBasua]

That's true in the west probably but not in the east. For example in india it's common to wear a handwoven saree with a made to measure blouse and petticoat.

[@119Agent]

Do they not have artisan markets where you are? You can buy an entire wardrobe "off the street" here if you know where they are located and take the time to shop.

[@boomdos4265]

@@MsBasua India in general keeps the craftsmanship alive. It was the center of textiles for a long time. I also think that's the one of the timeless "stylishness" that everyone alludes to, for Indian women it's the saree, you CANNOT mess that up. Once something becomes "trendy" it'll show it's age QUICKLY.

[@patrickhart2483]

Once she started talking about the lapel roll, it made me so happy. It’s such a wonderful detail on a suit that really brings it from being good to being great. Great quality content!

[@sonyaglyn7035]

So nice that you know about the lapel roll already and could appreciate the talk. Thanks for writing. ~Sonya

[@scottseptember1992]

I would also add to look at the arm pit area. A bad suit doesn't have a long enough gap between the length of the hand and armpit, making it hard to lift your arm up.

[@sonyaglyn7035]

Fantastic comment ! I would really like to do an episode on the importance of a high armsyce. (You know you have a (nice) extra-high armsyce when it's easy to lift your arms but almost impossible to tie your shoes. Ha!.~Sonya

I put back on my suit to watch this video (was wearing it earlier on the day for a job interview), inspecting my suit while listening to Sonya explaining, only short of the Milanese finesse.

The Gentleman’s Gazette talks about the hallmarks of a quality suit such that you can find one when looking at second hand clothing. The owner of their channel owns a lot of second hand clothes. I feel that you may have made assumptions based off of their cheap vs expensive suit comparison videos.

[@adriansaavedra7923]

I recently bought a suit from a friend of mine. It’s reproduction 1950’s, beautiful pattern. But it’s fused. I didn’t pay very much for it and I got a non-fused jacket as well as a vintage shirt with that sale so it’s almost like I never paid for the suit at all, so I’m not sweating it too much.

Finally another sartorial talks video! Your videos are so inspirational, and that’s coming from a techie. It’s gotten so bad that I’ve even started saving up for my first bespoke suit, haha! One request: could you make a recommendation for where to buy a new graduate’s first “real” suit? I’m going to be wearing blazers and suits a lot for work, so I’ll need a few of them. It doesn’t have to be bespoke, but I’d love for it to have some history and heritage. Thanks!

[@sonyaglyn7035]

Hi Christian, and thank you (I appreciate that you are a techie and find the videos useful). Congratulations for making the decision to try bespoke in the future! Your question could be answered in different ways, according to your body build and personal style preference, but I think if you look at the (comprehensive) Parisian Gentleman Suit Review on ready-to-wear (RTW) suits and read some articles in the Parisian Gentleman Academy, you'll start to have some clear direction. Some of the best RTW starter suits with a "floating canvas" can be found at Suitsupply or Boggi. Also Lanieri makes good made-to-measure suits which can be ordered online. If you are looking for something in a higher price range (above $900), then let me know and I can give a broader answer. Thanks again! ~Sonya

[@MJM111977]

Wow, I was not aware of all of the differences between a quality suit and one that is not. I knew of the collar and the milanese, and the back just not the lapel. Thank you!

My first jacket worn in an office environment was a 3/2 style. I got into a heated argument with a dry cleaner who pressed the lapel to make it a 3 button jacket. I insisted they steam and press the lapel from the off side so it would lie properly; a natural roll to the collar was all I was asking for. Fortunately, it was only a problem once. That was 50 years ago. I’ve learned much since then.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

[@slicksnewonenow]

I'm fortunate enough to have found quite a few of what we called "Rock-N-Roll" suits, over the years... They were mass-made here in the U.S. in the 1950s. The jackets have long-roll lapels and a link button, AKA, the "One-Button Roll"... These were sold through the big chains back then, like J.C. Penney and Alden's, Sears and the like. They must have had A LOT of handwork done on them, as the lapels do roll BEAUTIFULLY! Many of those suits had other incredible details, including pick-stitched edges, some of the jackets have 4 patch pockets, others have yoked backs, shirred seams on the shoulders, etc... And the suits made of Gabardine sometimes even came in 2 tone! The trousers usually feature a Hollywood waist, some with "Lap Seams" down the outer leg, dropped belt loops with smaller INNER belt loops, back pocket tabs, and the list goes on... Amazingly, those suits sold new for only around $25.00 U.S.! It's incredible to me, how what seems to have been an entire economy (tailoring) was summarily wiped out here, by about 1990 or so. Even ALTERATIONS (and not GOOD alterations) in my area seem to be sky high. Hopefully, there's still light at the end of the tunnel... I believe there are many young people here and around the World, that are interested in (and talented enough) to bring back the Craft as we knew it, but 30 short years ago. Maybe that would bring the prices back down and the quality back up! Cheers! P.S.- DOWN WITH COLLAR GAP!😁

Thank you Sonya and Hugo for putting together such great content. The only "problem" with this video is that I was just going to buy a jacket that I had my eye on and when I watched this video and went and tried it on again.

👍😍Loved this video with Sonya. Great tips.💞 😔Ugh....The collar gap...once I started to recognize it, it’s something I can’t unsee. That and the thing that happens when a guy sits and the back of the jacket is “eating the person’s head” as Sonya mentioned are two things that I just can’t unsee when I see it. The other items I could probably give a pass on because most every people just aren’t going to have those items. Of course there are exceptions for everything....like the homeless guy who went to the thrift store to get a jacket and pants for a job interview. It’s honest and he’s clearly trying to do better. I will applaud that effort all day long.🤗

For the meantime I'll provide a link to my vimeo page - my most recent post is in fact an interview lighting test from earlier this month (titled: Paul Marks lighting tests) vimeo.com/clive12000 I have made a simple goal. What I film must be positive and inspirational. These are the values that enrich our lives. Nutrition for the soul if you will. Happy days and well wishes to you and your achievements.

Very Informational thank you. Could you do one on ties and pocket squares please ?

[@sonyaglyn7035]

It would be great to do a show on ties and pocket squares. Please tell me precisely what you'd like to see included in the discussion! ~Sonya

[@Abhothra]

Combining and imho ;) More importantly tastfully contrasting Tie and pocket square. (Colours & Patterns if you have the time please) And some bold PQ foldings other then the regular/more traditional ones

[@ChristopherKaspar]

I second this request! Specifically different fabrics and colors and how to pair them. I also wouldn’t mind knowing a few specific sources you would recommend to buy from :)

Your comment encourages me. Thank you. ~Sonya

I think the hand stitched button hole is a level up from differentiating a good suit from a bad suit. I'd happily exchange it to a machine stitched button hole if I could have a suit which didn't restrict my movement in exchange - which none of the mentioned things addressed completely. It's quite sad to see someone's shoulder padding and sleeve to rise up when just handshaking, must be uncomfortable.

[@sonyaglyn7035]

Such a great point about a small armscye allowing for freedom of movement (hint: if you can't tie your shoes, this is a good thing...and the only movement issue with a small armscye). Cheers and thanks for commenting. ~Sonya

[@mshell1959]

Great info and talk. Thanks Glyn.

[@sonyaglyn7035]

You're welcome, Mark. I'm glad you listened! ~Sonya

[@Mauriseph86]

Sonya great video! Its lovely to learn about menswear from a woman's perspective, the details to look for are amazing! send my regards to Signor Jacomet

[@sonyaglyn7035]

Regards will be sent. Thanks for your words! ~Sonya

[@raraavis7782]

So nice to see a video like this from a women! I‘ve been down the KZbin rabbithole lately, as far as high end/bespoke clothes and shoes are concerned, but almost all the content is by men. Or maybe the almighty algorithms are just making it seem like this 😎 In any case, I very much enjoyed learning more about this from the point of view of a female wearer.

[@sonyaglyn7035]

Hi Rara and thanks for dropping in here and giving your kind thoughts. I appreciate the female's perspective as well! ~Sonya

[@mariusmeiners7496]

man these videos are so wholesome :D i love it !

[@sonyaglyn7035]

If I'm considered in the way you describe, then I am grateful! Many thanks, ~Sonya

[@mariusmeiners7496]

yes that was certainly a compliment :) thanks for doing these videos, they are really cool !

[@johnyvannijlen4070]

Great video. Slowly and well pointed explained details. Pretty and smart gentlewoman in a beautiful bespoke suit who is not in a rush to explain something to us, slow guys. Now I know i only have bad suits :-))

[@sonyaglyn7035]

Thanks for the supportive and detailed reply, Johnny---and the idea is to shift towards noticing things we may not have noticed before and act on those things if we want to experiment. I think the journey is usually more interesting than the destination. Thanks again, ~Sonya
