Burdi in Chicago deserves to be on any bespoke and MTM list. All their bespoke and MTM are made in Italy with only the most beautiful fabrics. They are incredibly knowledgeable and very, very fun to work with.
This resonates with me; I put in my first order (of 2 suits that can be worn as separates, a tux, and a sport coat) with Steven Hitchcock in November (with a subsequent trip for fittings in late January during that fun snowstorm in NYC; as an aside the Carlyle and Bemelmans were amazing hosts for our snowy weekend). I wanted British drape and flowing lines coming out of my 20s with Neapolitan suits (Formosa from No Man Walks Alone) that were clean and sharp and beautiful and made for a me 10 years younger and 20 pounds lighter. Steven and Celia are amazing, and the tux arrived in time for my brother’s wedding at the beginning of this month. Great guy and great work he does, including cutting everything (and taking all of my measurements) himself
Thanks Matt! A number of these places have been on my list to try out. I’ve been on a Hamilton kick for shirts but I’ll be over in London this June so maybe I’ll swing by Budd and see if I can do something there.
I live in Atlanta but usually visit NYC a couple times a year - would you give J Mueser bespoke a whirl in those circumstances or recommend sticking to MTM since the fittings would probably be hard to schedule? There doesn’t seem to be any really decent bespoke options in Atlanta so I’m curious to give it a try. Thanks!

The Anthology out of HK definitely deserves some praise as well!!
Please add Tailorskeep in San Francisco to the list. Ryan and his staff are great!
Diehm Bespoke is our fav - great guy, wonderful, elegant suits. Just perfect!

Hey have you tried Sid Mashburn? Jake will work with your timing for sure!
Budd is really good for shirts. Harvie and Hudson, a few steps away, my favorites.
Whatever happened to seize-sur-vingt? I used to like that store. Got what became a favourite baseball cap from there since lost and mourned.
I have lost track but I thought there was a small retail shop still...
