Brutal honesty, no fluff, and a good amount of information in 17 minutes. I loved it so much it made my day better. can you do one on trousers sometime please?

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Thank you my friend for your words of encouragement! And yes we have an episode on trousers planned in April. Cheers, Hugo

"it is absolutely useless, and that's why we adore it!" not only strict and "dusty" rules, but also a consistent way of looking at this beautiful topic: a great job, as always.

Love the way he speak, he speaks elegantly like his dress do❤️❤️

[@quacknom7759]

Excellent video, Hugo! I loved the notion of seeing clothing as something higher than "dressing to impress" and how it truly has an effect of one's state of mind and in the way to perceive the world. Also the idea of having only one button on the jacket seems like the classiest kind of inside joke I could have with myself.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Thanks Fernando for your nice comment (not sure I understand the inside joke, but it's maybe because i'm just French 😊). Cheers, Hugo

[@williammack9512]

Hugo is so correct! Beauty and art are important. I believe looking good helps others feel better themselves. Personally, I am not tall , dark, and handsome but, at least I can dress well. Not only for myself but for the subtle pleasure of others.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Beautiful words William. Cheers, Hugo

I could listen to Hugo talk for hours, his voice is so relaxing. I have a couple of single-breasted suits I haven't worn in over a year because of lockdowns in the UK and I'll be looking for any excuse to dress up once we can go out again.

I just came across this pulchritudinous channel, like yesterday, and I must say Hugo, you are one of the finest gentlemen I've ever met on this platform, I just loved every bit of your content. Although I'm just a teenager student from India, I love watching your videos from tip to toe. I think your videos impart amazing knowledge and value to all of your viewers, may GOD bless you man.

I absolutely agree that the power of beauty is underrated in the modern day. Beauty and love make life worth living. Without them, we are mere robots.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Wise words my friend. Best, Hugo

[@Robert-ho7ys]

Thanks Hugo! Great summary, as always. Favourite quote from this video: "We don't dress to impress". Truer words rarely spoken! Oh, and I love your point about wearing lapel pins is where we differ from animals.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Yes Robert, we don't dress only to impress. Doing so is missing the greatness and the pleasure of the Sartorial life. Cheers, Hugo

[@m.p.jallan2172]

Great thanks Hugo, i am slowing starting to see all the details, i think i like the French style the best, your double breasted jacket is excellent. Love your point about dressing for the social good, aesthetically, an environment of beauty.

[@ianfarquhar1632]

Yes Hugo and Sonya, thank you for taking your time to produce Sartorial Talks. Learning about the bespoke world and doing my own research on the world of tailoring has been an enlightening experience and I thank you.

You are very welcome Ian! Hugo & Sonya

[@davidd.7410]

This video actually shows everybody that you can wear a total different jacket / suit depending on one specific detail that will make a huge difference (something we would hardly notice) which is great. As far as I'm concerned, make the lapels wider has had an enormous impact. I couldn't believe the way I look with 2 more cm. Great video that explains lots of things ! Cheers.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Thank you so much David for your contribution. And yes, 2 cm on a lapel can change the whole style and help you reach new heights in elegance. All my best! Hugo

[@JoeAbrams1287]

Great inspiring video, as always! I really like the style of the two-roll-three button jacket. I personally think it looks best with a heavier fabric like flannel (I own a flannel suit, that has this sort of buttoning on the jacket, but instead with a notch I went with a peak lapel and what can I say it is one of my favourite pieces to wear, even as a separate). Thank you for this great content! Stay safe!

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Many thanks Joe for sharing your experience. Stay safe as well! Cheers, Hugo

Dear Hugo, great job as always. Thank you! I have a 3 roll 2 Harris Tweed jacket and enjoy wearing it in the winter over cardigan sweater. I noticed that you didn’t address pocket flaps, sleeve buttons or vents. Do you plan to do that in a later video? Also, you began to address proportions. Do you plan to cover that topic at a later date? Thanks again!

[@nutyyyy]

Wonderful video Hugo, your advice regarding the single button was especially informative. I had not really considered a single button outside formal wear, but as part of a three piece suit it seems very stylish and a logical choice. For my next three piece I will definitely go with peaked lapels and a single button.

[@arentjanlinde6159]

[@BeatRatio]

Hugo, I just discovered your channel and I'm amazed by your passion. I'm Italian and I share the same enthusiasm for fashion and style. Now that most workplaces are switching to casual wear it's becoming harder to leave the house without someone asking "Are you going to a wedding?". But I don't mind that, in fact I think that on the flipside we are also entering an era where, precisely because you don't have to just "dress for work", dressing well is becoming even more so than ever before, a form of expression. Not to "dress to impress", but because like you said, if you appreciate beautiful things in life dressing well can be just another aspect of that (although of course I'm not saying that if you dress casual you don't appreciate beautiful things!). Keep up the amazing work!

[@thomasbagrel5854]

With a MTM service in a company which offers only online orders, it's really hard to get good results the first time. I tried shirts from TailorStore, and the result was worse than off the rack shirts for the first 2 shirts produced (although I took my measurements several times to be sure with the help of another person; and that shirts aren't the hardest clothing item to produce with a good fit). Their customer service was great however, and they allowed me to re-order another shirt for free twice. But I think that fittings and measurement sessions in-store are definitely required to get a good fit with MTM services in a decent amount of tries (and time). The skills of a tailor cannot be replaced just with automatic computations based on a few home-made measurements!

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

I couldn't agree more for the tailors (as you know I'm a die-hard bespoke customer). However, some MTM salons have made tremendous progresses and are delivering very decent quality. It will never be like true bespoke in-person with several fittings at your tailor, but it can help many climbing the sartorial ladder. Cheers, Hugo

[@8snorky]

Merci Hugo...excellent discussion again...I continue to learn from you. Perhaps in an upcoming episode you can also discuss sleeve buttons and sleeve length. I know most tailors recommend showing one half inch of sleeve, but I like to show a little more than this. Just my preference. Looking forward to the next video. Steven

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Dear Steven, yes we will address all the details of the jacket in this ongoing series. By the way I also like to show a little bit more of my shirts too. Cheers, Hugo

[@absdyna]

A well cut, traditional, two button jacket will actually have a cutaway after the top button, so if you do try and button the bottom button it will pull the jacket out of shape and ruin the lines of the jacket. A jacket that is designed to have both or all three buttons closed is called a paddock jacket and the cutaway begins after the bottom button. Legend has it it first started when King Henry got too plump to button the bottom button of his riding jacket and left it unbuttoned and then everyone else followed suit (pun intended)

[@NiceTrade]

I think that 3 button jacket is kinda functional.. i live mostly in Canada, Montreal & also Southern Greece, Island of Crete.. many times in Autumn season temperature will be around 15 deg cel with not too much wind.. So usually i will wear a wool suit with a 3/4 long wool over-coat.. Brrrr so many times by late afternoon a very strong wind will start blowing & the temperature will drop another 5 deg.. So all the wind just blows down my chest & it just gets so cold, so to be able to have a 3rd button just to close the chest abit more i think is very functional..

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

You're actually right my friend. The Neapolitan gentleman never button it because it's never really cold in Napoli. That's why we speak of a hidden and useless button. But it actually can be buttoned. Cheers, Hugo

[@paladinclothiers3628]

Fantastic. The one thing I wish you had covered aw well is the pocket styles. When you said the only difference was the lapel I was thinking, but what about the pockets and how they dress up or dress down a suit? Great video, Thank you!

[@westfieldartworks8188]

I'm a little off topic, but in these last few videos, Hugo is looking leaner in the waist, with a more youthful and defined jawline. Or maybe I'm just seeing things. Thank you....and by the way, I really love the suit and tie in today's video..., particularly the tie. Cheers.

[@ForTheLoveOfSuits]

Very enjoyable listening to you in such a free wheeling spoken style on your feet. Hugo is a peak lapel more formal than a notched lapel? As I wear MTM suits for myself I have only notched so far as I actually consider my suits casual wear - they are so comfortable. So I’m wondering if my next suit should have a peak lapel or will it look to formal. I’ma photographer and not a banker so while I wear them for myself at the same time I don’t want to give off the wrong impression.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Dear Michael, peak lapels are not really more formal. I would rather say they are more "dandy-esque". Wearing a single breasted with peak lapels is a statement. Discreet but still a statement. Cheers, Hugo
