FAQ

Where do your fabrics come from?

We specialise in exceptional Italian and British fabrics, sourced from prestigious mills renowned for their heritage, craftsmanship and quality. Based in Piemonte, near Biella — one of Italy's most celebrated textile districts — we have access to a carefully selected range of fabrics for fine tailoring.

What is the difference between Stock Fabrics and Bunch Collection?

Stock Fabrics are fabrics already held in our stock and available for dispatch, subject to availability.

Bunch Collection fabrics are sourced from our partner mills when an order is placed. These fabrics may require additional processing and delivery time, as the requested length is obtained specifically for your order.

Please refer to the individual product page for availability and estimated delivery information.

What length of fabric will I receive?

Each product is offered in a specified, fixed length, clearly indicated on its product page. Unless otherwise agreed, the fabric will be supplied in the stated length, rather than in a length selected freely by the customer.

We recommend confirming with your tailor that the available length is sufficient for your intended garment before purchasing.

How much fabric do I need for a bespoke suit or jacket?

The required quantity depends on several factors, including garment size, design, fabric width, pattern matching and the tailor's cutting method.

As a general guide, a two-piece suit often requires approximately 3.0–3.5 metres of fabric, while a jacket alone may require around 2.0–2.5 metres. These are estimates only; your tailor should confirm the exact quantity before you order.

Are your fabrics suitable for bespoke tailoring?

Yes. Our collection is curated for customers who appreciate fine tailoring and high-quality materials. Our fabrics are suitable for a variety of garments, including bespoke suits, jackets, trousers and other tailored creations, depending on the individual fabric's characteristics.

Please review the composition, weight, width and other specifications on each product page to determine whether a fabric is suitable for your project.

Can I request a fabric sample?

Where samples are available, you may contact us to enquire about obtaining one before purchasing a full-length piece. We recommend this if colour, texture or weight is particularly important to your project.

How long will delivery take?

Delivery times depend on the fabric category, availability and destination.

Stock Fabrics are generally ready for dispatch, subject to order processing. Bunch Collection fabrics may require additional time to be sourced from the relevant mill.

Please check the estimated delivery information on the product page or contact us before ordering if you have a specific deadline.

Can I return a fabric if I change my mind?

Returns are subject to our Shipping, Returns & Refund Policy and applicable consumer protection law.

The right of withdrawal may apply to eligible online purchases, subject to statutory exceptions. Fabric that has been cut, tailored, washed or otherwise processed may be subject to specific restrictions or deductions where permitted by law.

Please read our Returns Policy before placing your order.

What should I do if my fabric arrives damaged or appears defective?

Please inspect your fabric as soon as you receive it and, wherever possible, before cutting or processing it.
If you notice damage, a defect or a discrepancy with your order, contact us promptly with your order number, a description of the issue and photographs where possible.
Your statutory rights concerning defective or non-conforming goods remain unaffected. Please refer to our Shipping, Returns & Refund Policy for further details.

Can I order a different length or a customised fabric?
Our online products are offered in the lengths and options specified on their product pages. If you require a different length or have a particular request, please contact us before ordering. We will confirm whether your request can be accommodated. Any customised order will be subject to separately agreed specifications and conditions.
