We talk enough about wedding gowns here, but gotta be honest, there is few things attire wise that compares to a beautifully tailored suit. So today, we’re introducing you to the last range from Melbourne based Trunk Tailors.
We’re embracing everything local this year, so why not consider them for your wedding day look?
Trunk Tailors specialise in handmade suits, using a small family-owned workshop and apart from a straight sewing machine, everything else is done by hand. Each piece made using beautiful, luxe fabrics from around the world. Think canvases from Italian and British mills, wools, Italian wool-silk blends. This is not about mass production, instead, it’s about designing a suit, one on one with its wearer, right down to the design and pattern. Each look is entirely unique.
For black-tie occasions, their favourite? A cream jacket with a wide shawl lapel. For Summer? The team specialise in beautiful colours (like the above fawn brown) that suit the season and play up the festive vibe. Trunk can work to custom-create everything from your jacket and pants, to your shirt. Even your overcoat.
The team can even work with their accessory partners – Drake’s from London and SevenFold from Florence to custom make ties and accessories to suit your own personal style or colour if what you dream of isn’t in stock (and when we say stock, everything Trunk Tailors carries? It’s something they’ve worked with the designers on themselves).
In an era where we must consider our fashion choices carefully, where everything we buy has an impact on not only the store, but the supply chain beyond, doesn’t it make sense to embrace the talent we have around us?
