Made to Measure
A vocabulary
Every detail is a choice. Here is the vocabulary.
A Centi Atelier suit is composed of dozens of choices. Most are quiet. Some are pronounced. All are yours to make — guided by an atelier specialist who has seen ten thousand of them.
Lapels
Notch, peak, shawl.
Notch: The default. Versatile. Works on every silhouette.
Peak: More formal. Adds visual height. Pairs well with double-breasted.
Shawl: Reserved for tuxedos and evening jackets. Elegant, never assertive.
Shawl lapel
Lining
Full, half, unlined. Bemberg silk, custom prints.
Full lining: the default. Cool Bemberg silk. Hides interior construction. Half lining: lighter, summer-appropriate. Unlined: the most relaxed — for sport jackets, linens, and very warm climates. Custom print linings (paisley, branded interiors for partners) are available on request.

Pockets & vents
Flap, jet, ticket pockets. Single, double, ventless.
Pockets: Flap (default), jetted (formal), or ticket (a fourth pocket above the right pocket — classic British detail). Vents: Single (rare today, mid-century American), double (default — British and Italian), or ventless (Italian dinner jacket).

Monogramming
Initials inside the jacket, in the thread of your choice.
Monogramming is included on every MAISON suit and available as an upgrade on the Studio and House Lines. Three letters, any thread color in our library, set inside the left chest of the jacket. A small, private detail — exactly the kind of thing the house values.
