Okay... I can't leave Domenico Vacca's mention in a post about Will Ferrell. These videos pay homage to the work of the man himself. Keep in mind that the stitching shown in these videos is designed to be highly visible in order to show detail. It can be kept as bold or as inconspicuous as a client desires.

Alexander Kabbaz is a master custom shirtmaker. He is often quoted in Esquire magazine and is pretty much America's go-to guy for knowledge on the subject of shirtmaking. I thought that this video would be great to post, not just because I love the feel of a terrific custom made shirt, but because the points that Mr. Kabbaz mentions in this video are great guidelines to go by when buying shirts off-the-rack, regarding the fit and drape of the shirt. I also think it's pretty awesome to hear the passion of a man who's been plying his trade for thirty years.
Enjoy.
