This is a three piece suit I got made a few years ago at one of the most prestigious tailors in India – Vaish at Rivoli. First opening in 1940 on Connaught Place in Delhi (the equivalent of Mayfair in London), all three generations have been trained and received diplomas on Savile Row. Their clientele includes the international elite (including a long list of presidents and royalty) and they've been featured in the New York Times, Esquire and Robb Report to name a few. Save to say, this is one of the few places you can buy a Savile Row quality suit for less than full price. I paid just under £2,000, and that was with a discount thanks to being a regular customer.
The fabric is a mid weight, Italian worsted wool which is wearable all year round, especially when worn with or without the waistcoat. The colour is a mid blue; the photographs on the hanger are the best representation. It's only been worn a handful of times and has been very well looked after, so is in excellent condition. It's also just been dry cleaned and comes with original suit bag.
The jacket is two button with a peak lapel, side vents, ticket pocket and three internal pockets. Waistcoat is 6 button with pockets and a back adjuster. Trousers have turn-ups to compliment the wide lapels, a back pocket, side adjusters and internal brace buttons. The jacket and trousers both have excess fabric should they need to be taken out. All buttons are real horn.
Measurements are below and hopefully cover all bases, but happy to answer any questions.

Heartbreaking to sell a once perfectly fitting suit at such a loss but this is sadly the way with bespoke clothing. It not longer fits me so hopefully someone else can enjoy this amazing piece of tailoring.
