About

Bespoke tailoring in New York City

Tristan Michael creates bespoke garments by private appointment in New York.

Each commission is individually measured, drafted, cut, fitted, sewn and hand-finished within his own practice. The work begins with the client, the intended use of the garment and the proportions that will determine its cut.
