The cloth library
Medici
Bangkok merchant of Italian suiting collections
Medici trades cloth out of Bangkok, and its book leans heavily Italian. Alongside a house line of pinstripes and checks for men's formal wear, it distributes collections from mills such as Guabello and Reda 1865, the second a name clients may recognise from elsewhere in this library.
A house like this earns its shelf space through editing. The mills weave; Medici chooses. What reaches us has already been sorted once, by people whose business depends on picking well.
Medici sits in the rotating part of our cloth library. Lengths come in and get cut, and something new takes the space, so the bunch you see at one fitting may be gone by the next. We do not pretend otherwise. A rotating shelf is how a small library stays interesting.
No named THEODORE garment is currently cut from Medici cloth. These lengths tend to go into one-off commissions: a pinstripe nobody else ordered, a check that suits exactly one client. If the name is on the shelf when you visit, ask to see what is current. It earned the space.
The current book is best seen in person, laid over a shoulder in daylight.
