Liverano bespoke, G&G MTO, WW Chan, Drakes … my first Liverano bespoke suit, I said to Antonio Liverano: “Make me whatever it is you normally make” so this is pretty representative of what a Liverano looks like: slim, no break trouser with a big cuff, a short jacket with rounded, sweeping quarters, somewhat large lapels and a nice, wide shoulder line.
