Fine Fabrics
The cloth is where your clothing begins. I source from established mills and cloth houses, then help you choose the weight, texture and drape that suit your garment and your life. These choices are part of the conversation for both men and women.
Meet the fabric houses
Scabal
From its mill in Huddersfield, Yorkshire, Scabal brings generations of weaving expertise to tailoring cloth. Its range spans understated everyday fabrics and distinctive special editions.
Dormeuil
Founded in 1842, Dormeuil grew from bringing English cloth to France. Its history includes fabrics such as Amadeus, developed with comfort, performance and drape in mind.
Reda
Italian wool specialist Reda develops fabrics for both formal clothing and more relaxed wardrobes. Textile research, careful material selection and attention to the production process shape its approach.
Ermenegildo Zegna
Long before ready-to-wear, Ermenegildo Zegna was a cloth maker. Its wool mill began in 1910, building an international reputation for Italian fabrics—a heritage carried in the cloth label itself.
Piacenza 1733
Cashmere, silk and other carefully selected natural fibers are central to Piacenza’s fabric collections. Its range invites a closer look at the feel and character that different fibers bring to cloth.
Guabello
Rooted in Biella’s wool tradition since 1815, Guabello combines textile heritage with ongoing research. Its collections extend from classic tailoring fabrics to wool developed for natural stretch and everyday movement.
Vitale Barberis Canonico
With a family textile history documented back to 1663, Vitale Barberis Canonico offers a broad tailoring vocabulary: worsteds, flannels and wool-and-mohair cloths, in varied weights, textures and patterns.
Carlo Barbera
Founded in 1949 in the Biella textile district, Carlo Barbera makes its fabrics in Italy. Time is part of its method: precious fibers rest between production stages as the cloth takes shape.
Ariston
A Naples cloth house with roots in 1920, Ariston presents seasonal fabric collections across wool, mohair, silk, cashmere, cotton and linen—offering a wide starting point for choosing a garment’s character.
Fratelli Tallia di Delfino
More than a century of Italian textile experience underpins Fratelli Tallia di Delfino. Its research begins with raw materials, with collections exploring wool, cashmere, silk and linen for refined tailoring.
Gladson
New York cloth house Gladson presents collections for suits, jackets, trousers, formalwear and linings. That breadth brings the fabric conversation beyond a suit to the other pieces and details of a wardrobe.
Loro Piana
Loro Piana’s heritage in wool trading and cashmere is reflected in its continuing focus on fine fibers and textile development. Its custom-fabric offering serves tailoring for both men and women.
