The Vintage Tailoring Thread

Barmey, i know you do, but for anyone else who appreciates vintage sleeve linings :

Crikey! That stuff is amazing!

Found a little mill in Italy that can make Bemberg Sleeve lining to order. Minimum Run of 50 meters though, so it might be a while before I can comission anything like that

Barmey, any idea what 50 metres would cost ?

p.s. the lining above is from an Edwardian frock coat that seller 'Style Service' has on ebay.uk... there are other nice ones too, but that was the most unusual.

Felt a little out of my depth asking how much a 50 meter run would cost. Lining isn't all that expencive though. Definately worth looking into if you get your own line going, or we open our own tailoring house one day

Found another Italian timmers who have stock sleeve linings, so I'll be doing some more enquiries.
