Indochino "Hedonist" Collection

Online menswear retailer and tailor Indochino has just launched its Hedonist collection of suits – a tribute to the well dressed, badly behaved man.



We can honestly say we’re largely skeptical to the notion of online tailoring – a made-to-measure suit should be cut by a tailor in person to ensure the best possible fit, value, and quality. However, reviews for Indochino have been promising, with customers reporting on easy to follow measuring instructions, and quality pieces for the price point with friendly and helpful customer service. It seems like the place to go if you’re set on buying your suit at a distance.

The Hedonist collection features a return to opulence and luxury. Lapels are big (which should ease things for taller gents), and the cuts are all very sharp looking two-button affairs. They offer a velvet suit, which had us raising eyebrows at first, but could be carried off right by the right man. On the other hand, we have to admit that the Indochino three-piece Navy pinstripe manages to pull off a very tricky look very well. Three piece pinstripes are hard to carry off, and Indochino makes it look easy here.
