  Adriano and Maria made me feel so welcome, unusual in this day and age! I have previously had suits made and tailored in Singapore and Hong Kong, so I (thought I) knew what to expect.
  
  But I didn't.
  
  I found the experience magical. From entering through the workshop (oops!) i saw large tables with fabric spread out, and actual people cutting cloth. I entered a lovely space with fabric samples and mannequins and easy chairs It was like something in Harry Potter!
  
  But then the fantasy ended as the professionalism of Maria and Adriano is very real. They discussed my needs and wants and explained clearly what was possible. I had a number of choices at my budget level, but i went to the top of my budget as i could tell i would get good value.
  
  By value I mean old fashioned value. 'You get what you pay for' value. My suit was made by Adriano himself and he is a craftsman. A rarity in an age of mass production and off the shelf standard suits.
  
  My suit is one of a kind, and it makes me look and feel good. The whole experience was like stepping back in time, to an era when honesty and craftsmanship were valued. When skilled artisans mastered their trade after decades of experience. When the customer was valued. When people mattered.
  
  I would not hesitate to recommend Adriano. Don't rush, take your time. Enjoy the experience. And be prepared to pay for the best, because that is what you will get.

  I recently picked up my first bespoke suit from Adriano and it came out even better than I had hoped. He understood exactly what I explained that I wanted and made it happen like magic.
  Every single thing that I was taught to look for in a fantastic bespoke suit was there and I feel an immediate boost in confidence whenever I put it on.
  
  It was unusual for me to feel so incredibly comfortable in a suit, but I can now feel just as good as I look.
  I was so impressed that I have already ordered 2 more pieces from him.
  
  I also bought two ready to wear shirts from Adriano and they look and feel fantastic, they are easily the highest quality that I have personally worn. They have a nice fit without restricting any of my movement.
  
  Adriano and Maria were a pleasure to deal with and I look forward to bringing my future son here for his first bespoke suit some day.

  I thought the experience would be daunting as a first timer, but both Adriano and Maria made me feel comfortable and kept me informed as to the process. Adriano is efficient with his time away from the sartoria, taking measurements and making recommendations by taking in to account the event, your features and your budget.
  
  My suit was complete ahead of my tight schedule and I’ve never been more happy with a fit in my life. I might have to get an office job so I can justify having a few more suits made by Adriano.

  Got my first ever suit made by Adriano and what an amazing experience it has been.
  Since it was my first tailor made suit Adriano took the time to walk me through the process, showed me the different fabrics used and gave me advice and options to suit my budget.
  Adriano is so easy to talk to its like he knew exactly what I wanted, got the measurements done straight away, a few week later got a fitting done and in just over a month my suit was ready. By far the best money I’ve spent, my suit is so light and fits perfectly. Thanks Adriano and Maria for your amazing service.
