MIGLIORE is a brand run by Yoshio Okamoto, a highly skilled patternmaker who creates elegant curves honed in Italy. His suits are unique, based on the "six-front jacket" design that forms a "figure 6" from the lapel to the hem, and are characterized by a comfortable fit that envelops the body from the back. These suits, which incorporate design elements into a light Neapolitan style of tailoring, are attractive because every part, from the gorge line to the shoulders, is composed of curves, and every detail is carefully considered.


For this order event, we will be offering "15milmil15" fabric from Ermenegildo, selected by Mr. Okamoto. This is a particularly high-quality fabric from the company, which is famous for its high-quality fabrics, and it will be available exclusively for orders. In addition to made-to-measure orders, we will also be accepting orders with fittings on the day of the event.

Kazunari Arita, who trained at the prestigious Gieves & Hawkes before establishing his own tailor and cutter business in 2004, creates unique and distinctive styles with roped shoulders, longer lengths, cutaway fronts, and flared cuffs. These bespoke suits can be enjoyed in a variety of situations, not just business.


When it comes to tailors and cutters, many people probably associate them with "Harrisons of Edinburgh," a favorite of Mr. Arita. This time, we've selected classic British fabrics from their "Mystique" spring/summer collection, featuring colors and patterns that are easy to wear for business occasions.

Tailor Caid, created by tailor Yuhei Yamamoto, carries on the style built up over history by generations of well-dressed men. The suits he creates are inspired by the 1950s and 60s. The prototype is said to be the No. 1 sack suit with three buttons, rolled lapel, and natural shoulders, which was completed in America in the early 1900s. The tailoring brings out the inner charm of the wearer, resulting in a genuine, classic suit that inherits true tradition.


For this order event, we have selected wool and mohair fabrics from "Bateman," a company that has been in business for over 130 years and enjoys a high reputation. We have carefully selected colors and patterns that are easy for even those new to mohair to choose from.
