How Does A Suit Become "Made"?

Although the pace of change is fast, advanced garments are not synonymous with speed.

At least for men's wardrobe essential suits, its production process is very long. During the men's week in Milan, it was fortunate to visit the Zegna suit factory in Italy's Swiss border. The huge production team, the precision operation of all kinds of machinery, and the craftsmen made every day's daily efforts to make every suit unique.

Similarly, in the young men's clothing brand Dior Homme's dress craft exhibition, we also witnessed how this seemingly simple modern suit was made.

Creative director Kris Van Assche sent sketches and details from Paris to a suit production studio gathered in northern Italy's craftsmen. Each suit costs 5 weeks.

The fabric is made of traditional Italy fabric or extremely innovative Japanese fabric, and the machine is tailored to the machine. Each part of the suit is made by a machine to ensure that each part comes from the same fabric.

Suture instead of hot-melt bonding of traditional animal fiber linings (with horse hair and camel Mao Zhicheng) throughout the process will undergo repeated blanching to maintain a wide appearance.

Another distinctive feature is the selection of a special material called "ROLLINO" (also called cigarette) to sew and fix the sleeve to ensure the exact connection of sleeves and the special steps to carry out joints. The shoulders of the suit are strengthened to make the shoulders more straight and shoulder lines inward and to create the unique slender shape of the DIOR HOMME suit.

The finer collar with the perfect radian can not see the creases that can be pressed, the invisible pins, the traditional technology collar, the reverse line and buttons are also from the hands, and the strict quality control makes the tiny defects no hiding place.

The suit dress made of 9 steps has become popular among many stars with its neat lines and slender profile, including Alain Delon, Oliver Stone, Andy Lau and Ethan Ruan.
