Napoleon Bonaparte attired in a Royal Tailored-to-his-measure three button short-roll sack suit.
THE personal Napoleon of private and social life, loved the world’s finer things. The Gentler Arts of his time had no abler critic.
He had a keen sense of color values; any form of symmetry and harmony stirred his enthusiasm.
He would have reveled in an inspection of The Royal Custom Tailor Woolens. To choose from half a thousand flawless weaves of richest hues and textures would have piqued and whetted to the quick his discerning luxury appetite.
