Bespoke suits from our gentlemen’s tailoring house on Andrássy Avenue. Cut from a pattern drawn for your figure alone, sewn stitch by stitch by hand, over hundreds of hours.
The consultation carries no obligation to purchase.
Bespoke
It belongs to a man who makes important decisions every day. A man who has worked for what he has, and knows that real quality takes time and patience.
The word comes from the language of the London tailors. When a gentleman chose his cloth, it was set aside for him: it was spoken for, and no one else could have it. It still means that. From the first line to the last stitch, everything is about you.
A good suit is not what people notice.
They notice you, in it.
House style
Our suits follow the classic Italian school of tailoring. A strong shoulder, a lapel rising straight from the button, a long, clean line. Strength that has no need to raise its voice.
The Italians call it sprezzatura: elegance that shows no effort. Behind it, all the same, lie decades of work.
Our tailoring house on Andrássy Avenue is led by Girolamo Dispoto, a master tailor from Naples. He brought generations of knowledge with him, and passes it on here in Budapest.

The process
We do not hurry. Through conversations and fittings, a piece takes shape that fits you and no one else.
We begin with a conversation. Where, when and how will you wear the suit? What do you like, and what not? From that, we choose the cloth and the cut together.
We take your measurements at fifty points, and we watch for what a tape measure cannot show: how you walk, how you sit, how you move. After all, you do not wear a suit only standing still.
You choose from the Holland & Sherry and Dormeuil books, with the cloth in your hands. We match the colour, texture and pattern to your skin, eyes and hair. Then the rest: lapels, buttons, lining, pockets, cuffs, monogram.
An individual pattern is drafted from your measurements, for you alone. The cloth is cut by hand, and the suit is sewn by hand, stitch by stitch, in our gentlemen’s tailoring house on Andrássy Avenue.
At the first fitting the suit is only basted together: every line can still be changed. At the second, we check together that everything has found its place.
Your finished suit is handed over in the salon. You put it on, and you feel the difference. We show you how to care for it, so it stays a faithful companion for many years.
Handwork
A bespoke suit holds many thousands of hand stitches and hundreds of hours of quiet work. You do not see it at first, but you feel it the moment you put it on.
The front of the jacket is held by a horsehair canvas. It is not glued but stitched in by hand, so the cloth moves freely with it and keeps its shape for years.
Shaped with dense hand stitches. That is why they roll softly and never lie flat.
A machine buttonhole takes a moment. A hand-sewn one takes hours, and you can see the difference.
So the collar lies softly at the neck, and the arm moves freely.
Every bespoke suit is made here in Budapest, in our own tailoring house.
Cloth
Cloth gives a suit its character. That is why we work with two houses whose names speak for themselves among tailors.
One of the oldest cloth houses of British tailoring, today on Savile Row. Classic English worsteds, flannels, tweeds and light summer cloths.
A French house with English roots: its founder brought the finest English cloth to France. Today it is known for rare, fine fibres and careful finishing.
The fineness of cloth
A Super 120s or Super 150s label tells you how fine the wool fibre is. The higher the number, the finer the fibre. Finer cloth is softer, lighter, and drapes more beautifully.
In return it is more delicate: it creases more easily and wears sooner. Fine fibre is rarer, so it usually costs more too. For everyday wear we recommend 110s to 130s, and the finer cloths for occasion pieces.
Bespoke or Made to Measure
Made to Measure shapes an existing pattern to your measurements. Bespoke begins on a blank sheet of paper, and from the first line to the last stitch it is about you. We make both in the salon, and at the consultation we help you decide which suits you.
| Bespoke | Made to Measure | |
|---|---|---|
| Pattern | Individual, drawn for your figure alone | An existing base pattern, adjusted to your measurements |
| Measuring | At fifty points, taking posture and movement into account | Measurements, usually with the help of sample garments |
| Making | Handwork: horsehair canvas, hand-shaped lapels, hand-sewn buttonholes | Mostly machine-made |
| Fittings | Usually two, while the suit is being made | Usually one adjustment before collection |
| Freedom | Almost every detail is yours to decide | Within the available options |
| Time | Longer: time is part of the quality | Shorter |
| For whom | For those who want something truly their own, for an occasion or for years to come | For those who want an elegant suit made to measure in less time |

Weddings
The groom’s suit is always his own. We also make suits for the best men and the fathers: in harmony, yet each cut for its wearer. Come early, so there is time for the fittings without hurry.

Black tie
For galas, balls and the opera. Silk lapels, classic proportions, a bow tie. Or a bolder velvet version, if the occasion allows.
