In this new episode of Sartorial Talks, Hugo and Sonya are interviewing Charles Blandin and Cédric Fourny-Delloye, the founders of the Blandin & Delloye company, a fast expanding made-to-measure tailoring company from France.

From weddings and ceremonies to business style and casual chic, more and more gentlemen (and ladies) are currently turning to the made-to-measure culture for their wardrobe.

In this talk, Hugo and Sonya question their guests about the evolution of classic style and the rise of a new generation of sartorial cognoscenti. They also tell the entrepreneurial story of these two young gentlemen who started their business 10 years ago and managed, while swimming against the fashion stream, to open 16 shops around France, Belgium (Brussels) and in Canada (Montreal and Ottawa).

The made-to-measure tailoring culture is clearly on the rise and we love it!
