In my latest video I show different examples of fine hand stitching that go into the making of a true Bespoke suit. For more more information visit my website at Rudolf Popradi.
Rudolf, you really must take on several apprentices so that you can teach them your craft. It would be a shame that when you retire such amazing work and dedication just vanishes.
I used to careless about myself. I wore sandals, jeans with holes, t shirts, and no underwear. Never took daily showers. Fortunately, I was employed. My feet were always dirty. I smelled. After meeting a clinician, I realized I was depressed and unhappy. I noticed this clinician dressed impeccably. This man's mantra was "sort yourself out and clean your room". I started getting into men's wear. I fell in love with sports jackets, suits, and blazers. Basically, I became involved in clothes and in developing myself. Dressing up improved my life and my professionalism. It was a psychological transformation. I enjoy observing the process of constructing a beautiful piece of clothing. In being detailed about how I dress and learning from tailors, I became more attentive to other areas of my life. Thank you tailors, seamstresses, sartorialists, and that special man-the clinician. Next month, I will working with a nice man from Iran to have my own bespoke blazer. Once you care about yourself, everything follows in life. Blessings to all.
Alberto Gutierrez - I would imagine that there are plenty of people who fit the “before” version of you (minus neglected hygiene) who are quite fulfilled and contented with their lives, but I’m glad that looking better was what jumpstarted your desire to FEEL better...the two do feed one another.
Beautiful craftsmanship. Reminds me of my Mom she made our shirts, pants, and suits all by hand. I never realized how much work that was until I was older. My Great Grandmother, Grandmother, and Mom all made their own clothes and their families clothes, as well as quilts. I still have a quilt made by my Great Great Grandmother Ida from Ireland.
I'm only 19 yet I've already begun to have a love for wearing suits. I've also started learning to sew and make alterations to my clothes and hope to make bespoke suits like you in the future. Thank you for sharing your talent and being an inspiration!
Beautiful. I wish, you had continued, to make videos. There’s a lot of content about regular sewing out there, but not much about high end tailoring. Fascinating subject and incredible craftsmanship.
I learned to stitch hems this way when I was young, from a pro seamstress. The running stitch we've seen being done around the armholes of the vest, I never before saw it done in two steps yet this has to be the best way for regular length of stitches and regular spacing. Pants seem to me to be very difficult to make in the "true bespoke" manner. Working with exquisite fabrics is a great pleasure.
“Excellence” doesn’t seem enough to cover the quality, and the passion, involved in this work... I’m trying to teach myself to be able to do a bit of tailoring, and it would be very helpful if you could slow down a little, and describe the different stitches in more detail. Then...it would seem to be a matter of practice...right? Thanks again for showing us how terrific fine garment making can be! Truly amazing, sir...
As someone who has always worked hard I appreciate your dedication and the work you have put into the suit to make it exceptional, beautiful and meaningful, congratulations.
Excellent. Very detailed work. It must be very relaxing to be working in small room, very solitary. Easy to focus on the work at hand without distraction.
101perspective worked in a custom womenswear shop before and learned that spit works well to remove blood stains. your spit cancels out the ph of your blood and helps it come out. The blood has to be fresh and it has to be your own spit though a little weird but yeah lol
Rudolf Popradi, Did you say 40 hours to make a Bespoke Suit? You should be Given the Academy Award for BEST tailor around! You're Incredible! BRAVO! Post more please and I want to see the beautiful pinstripe suit 9:40 when finished. from Houston TX
In Austria where I studied bespoke tailoring, we had to do it in 25h on the school exam, and the same amount of hours we have for the state exam... without passing the exam we cannot open our own shop. I succeeded with tears and blood to pass the school exam, but for the state one I have to wait a few more years. 40 hours is just fine. (I am not saying he is not doing a great job, because he is.. it is just that 40h are normal)
@@Mametiganabijem я рада что вы научились шить ! Рада ,что у вас есть своя мастерская ! Уважаю такое обучение ! Мой сын молод ,стал дизайнером ,но у него ничего пока нет ! Нет девушки ,нет работы ,нет счастья .У нас война испортила жизнь . Счастья вам и благополучия !
Thank you so much for sharing! Your handstitches are very neat and you understand the character of the fabric. Very beautiful handsewn suits Sir 😘 Salute!
At least we have the videos although I wish the video was a bit more close up. It looks as if he is picking up only a single thread from the face fabric as he is hemming. Such beautiful stitching.
Thank you for showing the careful stitching techniques. Sometimes it's hard for an unsophisticated viewer to understand the refinement of the stitching strategies in a finished suit.
Hi Rudolf, thanks so much for your videos. I’m new to sewing but I really aspire to one day make my own suits. I also unfortunately have no one nearby to teach me but books. Is there any chance you can film yourself from start to finish explaining each part (including the cutting and measurements)? Thanks!
Such beautiful work and incredible craftsmanship I could look at your work all day. Oh and those hand sewn buttonholes...incredible! Thank you for sharing your work with us is a real treat, great video.
Hi Rudolf. ...I've been looking forward to seeing a new video from you for ages......and thanks for showing the making of a wastecoat too....What a master you are of your craft....I do hope you are teaching someone your trade.. Many thanks
Hi Dean, thank you for your comments. Hope the video was worth the wait. To busy to teach someone now, but when I retire I have plans on writing a book.
Man I hate turning pant legs by hand it's such a chore. You make it look so easy. Great video the part where you show how to stitch the canvas to roll the chest and lapel is very Interesting. I always though the way the lapel rolls to the button is very alluring and beautiful
Your work is impeccable and true bespoke and your stitches are small and tight. Love your technique and the fact much is done by hand and not rushed through by machine.
I bought a m2m suit recently and the tailor who measured me gave me an option for the full canvas with machine stitched or hand stitched, I ended up choosing hand stitched but I didn't really understand what the benefit was because I don't really see the stitching of the canvas, so I didn't really understand what I paid for. But after seeing this video I'm pretty happy to have chosen the hand stitched option. Should get the suit next week, can't wait
I want to learn to sew shirts, vests and such after I retire. I like hand sewing as opposed to machine. Another thing I like to do is embroidery. In the past I've finished 2 quilts. It was satisfying
Just came across your video. You truly do such beautiful work. True artisan. Very talented. Where are you located? Seems like maybe you work from home. Looking forward to watching more of your videos. Thank you so much for sharing.
It took me a lifetime to start and what a joy it is. Sadly at my age there is not enough time to get to this level of master ship. I tried the hand stitch button hole and what a disaster, but I'm not going to give up. Thanks, you videos are an inspiration. Ps. I don't understand the roling chest piece. How is the rolling canvas stitched to the main fabric without being visible from the front?😏
Hi rudolf this is Gamal Alama from Egypt I would like to thank you for your good job Would you please I want the suit which is I think grey by dark blue how much for 3 meters? And if u make it also how much and I can send my size thank you I will be waiting your reply best wishes to you 🌷
Please answer: why is hand stitching better than a machine? The machine will keep the same distance between each stitch, while doing it by hand will variable the length of the stitch and the tightness of each stitch. I want to start tailoring my clothes and I could use insight on the fundamentals. thank you.
Sir do you have a video for hand stitching suit lining I have an quite old Cesare Attolini suit which was ruined by some idiots I want to repair by myself the lining although it's not my job but I have descent hand sewing capabilities 😊
Hello, I do not have a video currently but in the next few years I will have videos on tailoring. For all stages of tailoring from basics to bespoke tailoring. Prices for the videos will be very affordable. Regards Rudolf
tailors are disapearing from the modern world. Only you Rudolph can teach younger men and women your craftmenship so they can continue the art of making suits.
If I had another 24 hours in a day it would be my greatest legacy to pass this craft to the young men and woman. There are many people who have the passion for tailoring but not the resources to learn. There are a few places in Italy and England that have schools but to be a tailor takes years and years of training. I started when I was 13 years old and have been sewing ever since.
Rudolf, you really must take on several apprentices so that you can teach them your craft. It would be a shame that when you retire such amazing work and dedication just vanishes.
Yes you should
Sign me up. It's a dying art.

Hello Steve, thank you for your comments. It is a wonderful feeling when I receive great comments. Regards Rudolf

RUDOLF PERFEKT 🇵🇱👌👍👏

that is my dream
i want to study textile and learn all these how to make pants shirts by hand
@@mithunperumal592 hope you can achieve it, it's a beautiful craftsmanship
You are so very blessed to have that treasure of a quilt. I'd love to have one of my ancestors quilts.
When I was a child I used to think, how there were beautiful clothes long before sewing machine was invented. Well I got my answer now.
I am a coat maker.
I want to do tech in your store.

Likewise buddy🙌, give me a follow on Instagram @zachis103 !
Same, I’m 18 and I have started with my first bespoke suit, I have researched for quite some time before making it. Still in the process lol
@@zipastewards1906 how's it coming along?
@@gideonnartey_ I’ve already finished it, it turned out pretty good. I watched a web series by Rory Duffy on Vimeo and he explained everything.
@@zipastewards1906 Hi how are you? can we chat on WhatsApp?
Beautiful. I wish, you had continued, to make videos. There’s a lot of content about regular sewing out there, but not much about high end tailoring. Fascinating subject and incredible craftsmanship.
I would love to see the entire process! This is very nice
Boy this gentleman is so skilled with a needle and thread that it is downright scary. I want him to make me a pair of trousers!

And the double breasted suit I saw at 6:54 is beautiful too.
You may sew when ready...
Excellent. Very detailed work. It must be very relaxing to be working in small room, very solitary. Easy to focus on the work at hand without distraction.
Okay, I think I have your stitch technique mastered. My only question now is how do you get the blood stains off the cloth?
101perspective worked in a custom womenswear shop before and learned that spit works well to remove blood stains. your spit cancels out the ph of your blood and helps it come out. The blood has to be fresh and it has to be your own spit though a little weird but yeah lol
Hydrogen peroxide ?

You’re watching a master at work
Thank you so much for sharing! Your handstitches are very neat and you understand the character of the fabric. Very beautiful handsewn suits Sir 😘 Salute!
I love your video's Rudolph, wonderful to see your beautiful work. I learn new things from you that I use in my tailoring projects. Thank you!
Rudolf is my hero! A superb craftsman and gentleman.
I would love to have the chance to be your apprentice, even if just for a day. Your work and dedication is admirable!
At least we have the videos although I wish the video was a bit more close up. It looks as if he is picking up only a single thread from the face fabric as he is hemming. Such beautiful stitching.
What is untrue bespoke? I want to know about true true true bespoke.
How do u stitch like that without a fully lid room?
Thanks to your videos, I've decided to attempt a suit coat for my son. You inspire me.
Sarto non italiano, molto piu' bravo di molti sarti italiani blasonati.
take a shot every time he says “true bespoke vest”
What superbly sweet lines Rudolph, thank you sir, a visual feast.
Exelent work, nothing but higth quality suits .

👍😍Absolutely awesome. I wish I could learn this kind of skill.💞
Rudolf, do you make bespoke garments for yourself also? If so, I assume you get another tailor to do the measurements?
I have always sewn pants that way. Bc I love the look at the end. I know the stitching won't pull out and my customers have always been happy.
Such beautiful work and incredible craftsmanship I could look at your work all day. Oh and those hand sewn buttonholes...incredible! Thank you for sharing your work with us is a real treat, great video.
So if everything is hand stitched what does he do with the machine he has? Regardless, I would like to have a suit made by Rudolf.
Hi Rudolf. ...I've been looking forward to seeing a new video from you for ages......and thanks for showing the making of a wastecoat too....What a master you are of your craft....I do hope you are teaching someone your trade..

Chinese canvas @ $50/yd and allows canvas to be cut on the straight, Super premium Italian hymo is $17.25/yd.

Now I know what Kanye was talking about in “American Boy”
Such beautiful work! I'm a tailor but never get to learn this in my education. This is my goal in my life to accomplish this! ❤
Why do you make a multi-layer canvas? And how many layers in the good bespoke suit?
When shortening the pants, why so much fabric is left? Wouldn't this extra material show through when the pants are pressed/ironed?
Good day sir.. Can you deach me how to making pattern of that coat .. I want to learn
Thanks for taking the time to show us your amazing work
amazing job, cogratulations, continue sharing your arts with this videos please
Thank you for posting a new video. It's very nice to watch a master at work. Your work is beautiful.
From 0:00 to 13:11 still don’t know how to identify a true bespoke suit. All I know is homeboy stitches by hand

The true bespoke I love it he sure knows the Difference between real and a knockoff suit
I love suit as a 27 years old guy in this casual hiphop culture world...
Naic sar I'm tailor master for sot it like you vark hand made stih 👍👍👍👍
How beautiful. What I wouldn't give to learn this skill-
Is there an interior facing on the armholes? It looks like about 1" bias arm binding in suit fabric.
I sew very well but I learned something thanks
I love the straight lapel fabric lines!
Those are practiced hands. I'd say at least 15 years of doing it.
Came for the suits, stayed for the ASMR
I’d love to watch him overlock the edges by hand.
No wonder these be spoked suits are expensive. They take a month to make!

I turn my trousers up like that, and I've done button holes similar to the other video, with a twist, except I only do one twist not two.
how do you secure your raw edgeS?

I was born and raised in Budapest, Hungary. I immigrated to Canada in 1981 with my wife who is Canadian. Thank you for your comment.
