  This Nolita boutique offers ready-to-wear and custom suits and shirts (and it’s the only place in town, as far as we know, to offer custom cashmere sweaters) with a cool, European feel. The guy who shops here probably drives a Vespa and drinks his espresso strong. Suits are handsewn and, because of a final-stage, “rough draft” try-on, fit impeccably.
