The World's Finest Fabrics
Exceptional Weddings Deserve Exceptional Fabrics
Cloth decides almost everything about how a wedding garment behaves: how it drapes, how it handles heat, how it photographs and how it looks at the end of a fifteen-hour day. We select from the great Italian and English fabric houses and match the cloth to your season, venue and dress code.

Fabric Questions
Which fabric is best for a summer wedding in San Diego?
A high-twist wool or fresco in the 250–290g range is ideal — it breathes, resists creasing and photographs cleanly in strong coastal light.
What fabric should a black-tie tuxedo be made from?
Barathea or a fine midnight-blue evening wool, with grosgrain or satin facings on the lapel. Midnight blue often reads richer than black under evening light.
Can the wedding party's cloth be ordered together?
Yes, and we recommend it. Ordering the full quantity at once ensures every garment comes from the same batch, so the group matches exactly in photographs.
