Senli and Frye
Queja 284527 Detalles

I'm one of the many victims of Mr. Nels Frye's misleading and persuasive marketing.

I ordered a suit and an overcoat at Senli and Frye Tailor store in Beijing and I got a jacket that didn't conform with my body. The shoulder of the jacket and the overcoat was way too padded.

The pants did not fit me well and the fabric wasn't very good.

The buttonholes were not handmade, very poor workmanship.

The style and fit was a miss.



I ordered from Senli and Frye because I found very positive reviews online, later it became apparent that many of these positive reviews were probably ochestrated by the Marketing Director of Senli and Frye.

Mr. Nels Frye promised on his website that they can do Neapolitan tailoring: he promised that Sen Li can do a Neapolitan shoulder that molds to the wearers torso so that the customer can feel relaxed and comfortable with himself, instead he gave me a heavily-padded shoulder and stiff chest that bended me into the same structure than any other victim of his scam. Mr. Sen Li was not able to follow the Neapolitan approach. He didn't incorporate any stylistic nuance or method of construction from Naples.



"We know the difference between a Neopolitan[sic] and a Saville[sic] Row shoulder and we are also familiar with styles from Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche, to Comme des Garçons, and Dior Homme. The most expensive tailors usually only give you their house style, while the cheap ones just make a mess. We labor to create suits exactly according to client’s requirements, though we do request that bring in an existing suit. We can use this as a model from which to discuss your preferences in terms of fit and styling."
