Founded in 1880 in Paris, Cifonelli still remains an intimate family business under the wings of the fourth generation Cifonelli cousins, yet in the meantime has become one of the greatest tailoring houses in the world. Like a very few of other Parisian tailors, Cifonelli is renowned for offering tailored clothing with the finest craftsmanship and most exacting fit.

This suit was bespoke made for an American billionaire. It has the hallmarks of the Cifonelli suit: rollino shoulders, Milanese boutonnière buttonhole, and utmost meticulous handworks.
