A recent photo of one of my bespoke Giliberto suits in action for the winter season. This is a two-buttoned number in a Glenplaid check pattern with a palette of mahogany, navy, cranberry, and apricot tones on a buff ground. It has side vents and working buttons on the cuffs. The hand-built shoulder pads and hand-laid canvas chestpieces are set with over 1,000 hand stitches; I count 1,098 in mine. The trousers sport reverse pleats and 2" cuffs. I prefer to wear it in the colder months, preferably whilst enjoying a ribeye steak, a bottle of Glenfiddich, and good conversation beside a crackling fire.

very nice suit indeed
did you count the stitches in between slugs of Glenfiddich? you could have counted some twice. :-D
applevenusian has a sense of humour....I like that...
i've got that and a whole lot more... i can act out "Ghostbusters", including singing the bad 80s songs...
We professional drinkers always think you rich guys will eventually learn about REAL single malts, but you never do. Oh well, I suppose there is no disputing taste.
Please forgive me, I am merely a semi-professional.
