Sad to see John go, but Terry and Suyamba are keeping the wit alive. Very excited to meet Steven in the next episode You should have a cuppa tea with John at some point
So sad that John is not there anymore, the three of them together were comedy gold. Terry must be feeling a little bit lost I would imagine after having John around as his partner and friend for so many years. You could see the real difficulty John was having trying to walk and stand so it was obviously time for him to hang up the tape measure. Enjoy your retirement sir. Sandstone is a great way to describe the colour of the suit, it's a fantastic colour. I was going to comment that you need to have a shirt made by Stephen and we get to see that happen next episode, can't wait see the end result.
@@cathydrumobich9045 As if Kirby's tastes aren't generally out of date already. Oops, sorry, I meant "traditional" 😂 But in reality it'll look fine as long as he's comfortable in it. A person uncomfortable in a "modern" style will look worse than a person comfortable in an "out of date" style.
Very sorry to hear John has retired but I wish him all the very best, he was such a unique gentleman. I still can't take my eyes off Sayumba's hair! She's so beautiful and has amazing hair!! Kirby, you look amazing in that suit! Another proper job achieved!!! Thank you for yet another amazing episode with these legends ❤
I am so very sad that John is not there to be in this video and that he won’t be in subsequent videos - I’m glad we have the videos he was featured in. Perhaps you can interview John in his home one day soon.
Well done Kirby I love these guys and their team and of course the beautiful Suyamba . Shame about hearing about John's retirement . Love their banter with you.
Just downloaded Shazam to find out what the music was! And it is indeed Opus 2 No 3. Which Shazam tells me is Piano Sonata No. 3 in C Major. And it's the first movement, Allegro con brio.
I'm certainly not belittling her skill or devaluing her abilities, but Suyamba is freaking **adorable** . Yes, she's pretty, but I really like her sense of humor and she's smart as whip. I don't want this to seem creepy. I have my wife and just stupidly happy with her. Besides, I'm old enough to be Suyamba's grandfather. Whoever her partner is is fortunate and I hope they are happy.
Love your content Kirby! Even as I’m wearing sweatpants and a hoodie 🤣. Would be excited to see more dedicated watch videos at some point as I’m sure you can assemble the right group to properly discuss the topic.
It just occurred to me that by making these videos for his business Kirby has found a way to make his bespoke suits tax deductible. Now I enjoy the videos even more!
Kirby another excellent video. Sad to hear John has retired. As many many others have said in the comments a sit down interview with him would be a great way to pass a few hours. We all enjoy your videos in our own unique way be it with a drink, a cup of tea or perhaps with a cigar. Looking forward to the next video already.
Kirby: Was disappointed to hear about John retiring. He was great in the last video series. Maybe you could do an interview series with him and get his perspective on bespoke and how styles have changed over the years. His knowledge and presentation of that knowledge were great in your Double Bespoke Commission series. It would be a shame for that knowledge to go unrecorded.
Hello, love your channel. My wife bought me the same DuPont lighter in the 1980’s for my birthday that you have also purchased. I had mine since it was sold in the store! Just saw a movie drama that I bought you might enjoy. It’s called The Outfitter and it takes place in a tailor shop in Chicago in the 1940’s. The entire film is shot inside the shop! Best Wishes to your successes! -michael
I hear this conversation on how great this sand color is and it brings me back to the funeral director episode with Nick Foulkes poking fun about Kirby celebrating the brown/grey color
KIrby, you've inspired me to go get my first(ish) nice suit. While it's not tailor-made, it is a dark grey Ted Baker that I'm going to have altered, too fingers crossed a perfect fit.
The look,cut,long jacket and long centre vent is almost pure 1960`s,my suits were that style but with two button fastening.From 16 to 21 I didn`t have an off the peg suit because they didn`t make them that way.
Kirby i have a question for you...well i have been watching and following almost all of your youtube shows alongwith Sartorial talks...Now when it came to recommending Sahakian to Bespoke...why did you prefer Henry Poole to Kent,Haste and Lachter...I thought you had great chemistry with John and others....and in fact i found these episodes of kent haste and lachter more informative and interesting....Your thoughts please mate
The jacket looks really nice but I just can't go with such large pants (both the linen as aswell as the bird's eye in the beginning of the video. I need pants on the slim side.
Similar to Kirby, i emphasize on the quality of the shirt. I invest on great quality fabrics, on highest quality natural materials such as silk, cotton, linen, cashmere, and so on. These shirts are not cheap, ranging from 700 USD for cotton to 1.5K USD for silk. Also, I buy from ultra luxury brands such as Stefano Ricci and Zilli, and the makers of those brands' luxury clothing.
I used to wear braces when I was younger and I couldn't stand the brace button holes tearing. I suppose that can't be helped other than using a very sturdy leather. It could also be I was just buying cheap braces.😂
Their prices for a 2 piece suit start at £4,100. Obviously the actual price will depend on a number of factors, particularly the cost of the chosen cloth. I think the above guess from Warren is likely to be on the money.
Those trousers at the beginning of the video are too loose, don't you think so too? They appear to be giving you micro-movements when are not even moving.
Humm....I don't know? I really don't think that cut suits you, it's fine fabric no doubt but it seems to lack drape and shape making you appear(in the mirror actually) much taller but not in good way, more like the TV personality Sheldon on the Big Bang Theory! (Sorry) The Conduit suit you picked up thrifting awhile back is hands down more flattering on you, just my opinion, no offense!
The absence of Mr Kent has allowed the other members of the workshop to be relaxed and spontaneous, more in accordance with what seems to be their true personality. IMHO, this way the show turned out to be more agile and pleasant to watch.
Dear Mr. Allison, You've been very considerate by bidding adieu to the funeral director look. It would only be the next natural step then, to put on good muscle on your beautiful (body) frame. I'd suggest building a thicker back. Further to finish the look (of an overachiever), grow a beard (facial hair). And there you have it. A Well-Wisher !
The trousers of your introduction suit offer a poor balance to the much more fitted coat. They are too floppy and need a stronger taper to balance the coat fit.
