Bespoke Gabriel Gonzalez Grey & Blue Jacket - 38​​​​​​/​​​​48S

Description

Gabriel Gonzalez is one of the few bespoke tailors who worked for Joseph Camps (Camps de Luca). Along with Francesco Smalto​​​​​​,​​​​​​ Claude Rousseau​​​​​​,​​​​​​ and Henri Urban​​​​​​,​​​​​​ Gabriel Gonzalez is a master tailor known for the quality of his craft. He began working for Joseph Camps in 1961​​​​​​,​​​​​​ at age 23​​​​​​,​​​​​​ after being an apprentice in Angoulême for three years. Trained by Claude Rousseau and Henri Urban​​​​​​,​​​​​​ Gabriel Gonzalez is a pure product of Parisian tailoring tradition. The cut is precise​​​​​​,​​​​​​ the attention to details is unmatched​​​​​​,​​​​​​ and everything is done by hand. You have the classic Parisian lapel designed by Joseph Camps​​​​​​,​​​​​​ a perfectly executed cigarette shoulder​​​​​​,​​​​​​ luxurious fabric​​​​​​,​​​​​​ and everything you might expect from Parisian bespoke tailoring. Gabriel Gonzalez opened his own atelier in the late 1960's. There​​​​​​,​​​​​​ he created many suits​​​​​​,​​​​​​ jackets and coats for captain of industries (Bolloré​​​​​​,​​​​​​ Boucheron​​​​​​,​​​​​​ Bich​​​​​​,​​​​​​ Bouygues)​​​​​​,​​​​​​ authors (Jean-François Revel)​​​​​​,​​​​​​ and other celebrities​​​​​​,​​​​​​ for more than 40 years. It was said that​​​​​​,​​​​​​ before his atelier was bought by Cifonelli in the late-2000's​​​​​​,​​​​​​ Mr. Gonzalez never included a label in the garment he made​​​​​​,​​​​​​ preferring to let it speaks for itself (only the initials and the date of fabrication were mentioned inside the pockets). These days​​​​​​,​​​​​​ Gabriel Gonzalez is still working and training new recruits for Camps de Luca​​​​​​,​​​​​​ well into his 80's. I propose a beautiful bespoke Gabriel Gonzalez grey & blue check jacket. Made in the late 2000's​​​​​,​​​​​ it is an original jacket that can be worn with a variety of trousers in your wardrobe (shades of blue​​​​,​​​​ grey​​​​,​​​​ even white)​​​​,​​​​​ from spring to autumn. The sporcoat includes Gabriel Gonzalez handstitched signature in the lining (a discret C​​​​​,​​​​​ in hommage of both Joseph Camps and Claude Rousseau). The jacket has two interesting features: the lack of breast pocket and inside pockets​​​​,​​​​ giving it a more formal look​​​​,​​​​ and the inverted position of the button. The tag has been removed at the behest of the previous owner. The condition is excellent. As always with Gabriel Gonzalez​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ it is fully handmade​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ from the lining to the buttonholes​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ from the shoulder to the collar. The jacket is best fitted for someone with a 38UK​​​​​​/​​​​​​48FR​ size​​​​​,​​​​​​ around 1m70 tall. Here are the measurements: Shoulders: 42​​​​,​​​​5​​cm Sleeve length: 60cm (with 5cm of fabric to let out) Chest: 50cm Waist at button: 49​​​​,​​​​5cm Jacket length: 72cm (collar included​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ with 4cm of fabric to let out) Lapels: 9cm Quality similar to the following bespoke houses: - In France: Camps de Luca​​​​​​,​​​​​​ Cifonelli​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Francesco Smalto​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Claude Rousseau​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Arnys​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Lanvin Mesure​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Henri Urban​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Max Evzeline​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Opelka​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Kenjiro Suzuki - In Italy: Caraceni (Augusto or Domenico)​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Rubinacci​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Dalcuore​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Panico - In England: Anderson & Sheppard​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Henry Poole​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Huntsman & Sons​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Nutters of Savile Row​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Chittleborough & Morgan​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Richard Anderson​​​​​​​,​​​​​​​ Meyer & Mortimer Possible to try it in Paris 15th Arrondissement.
