New Quality Standard on the Market ★★★★★
"In Purple Box I got everything I needed - from fabric to needles and pattern to start sewing a bespoke jacket. I haven't seen this kind of offer on the market before. Previously, I was forced to order from different sources and wasted time and money on shipping charges. Purple Box is nicely packed and provides you everything at a high quality and in the right quantity. I highly recommend it to everyone. Especially those who live in countries with difficult access to fabrics and trimmings.” – Rafał
Unparalleled Value Here! ★★★★★
"Purple Box is the real deal. It contains all the materials that make up a bespoke jacket, including a beautiful jacket pattern. If you’re wondering if it’s worth it; I believe it is. Before this bundle was an option I’d wasted time & money on the hunt for the good stuff aka professional quality materials. Well, here it is.” – Cyle
Purple Box with Silver Thimble★★★★★
"Oh my goodness! Opening Purple Box was like opening a valuable piece of art. It was wrapped so beautifully and each layer revealed yet another layer of gorgeous products. I have already had so much pleasure and if this is the standard and quality of sending the fabric and other products, I am confident that Reza's course is for me. I can't wait to get started right from the beginning. Thank you Reza and team.” – Patricia
Traditional Model
Classic English
The Traditional Model is an easy-to-make English jacket with a classic 50s Savile Row look. You can consider it an amalgamation of Kilgour, French and Stanbury, Huntsman, and Anderson & Sheppard cuts from that time.
Its classic and simple construction make it the ideal choice for beginners. If you're new to tailoring, choose this model. You will learn fundamental techniques and principles without feeling overwhelmed by the complexity of each step.
The styles of Cary Grant, Errol Flynn and James Steward inspired our Traditional Model; you will see similarities between shoulder lines, sleeve rolls, chest and lapel shapes.
Beginning of a love story! ★★★★★
"I just start my long journey of being the best tailor I can be to understand the relation between a garment and the human body. I think my wife chose the best gift for me with this training. Congratulations to everyone at ISOT!” – Vital
Pagoda Model
Our Pagoda Model is heavily inspired by the works of American painter Joseph Leyendecker. The suits in his work look crisp and sculpted. The transition between the neck and shoulders in his paintings are perfect.
Reza spent thousands of hours during his apprenticeship on Savile Row to design a pad and canvas construction that resulted in jackets that looked like those in Leyendecker's paintings. The top middle photo is one of Reza's study sketches on how the wadding should be layered to maintain a concave shape.
Worth every penny! ★★★★★
"I highly recommend buying this bundle. It makes following the videos much more convenient. Everything is very nicely packaged with the right amount of materials, plus a little extra in case you make a mistake. These materials can be tricky and expensive to source, especially if you aren’t located in a city like London.” – Cypress
Audaciously Bold
The Pagoda Model is highly stylised. Concave shoulders and 'roped' sleeves make it look like a sculpture; carved and defined. It's a challenging model. Construction involves multiple layers of horse hair and canvas. The shoulder pads are made of 6 layers, include cross-darts and require careful ironwork.
It's often perceived as a jacket with heavy padding. This is not true. The concave shoulders are a result of darts, iron work and layering in the right areas. This creates harmony between layers and is crucial for correct results.
This model is designed to challenge you and raise your skills to the next level. Ideal for individuals who have completed the Traditional Model or possess some tailoring experience.
Dear fellow tailor,
Mowgli and I must raise £100,000 by 1 October 2025 to start the "Alterations Video Library" project. We need your support today.
This FREE library will have 200+ videos of individual alterations, indexed by seam. Each video shows a fitting problem, followed by the pattern corrections and final results with side-by-side comparisons.
You will learn to fit in minutes, not days. This will be the most important tailoring project of the century. And you can be part of it by funding it today.
If you ever wanted to change the world, now is your chance. Please join us in making a giant leap in the history of tailoring education.
Thank you,
Reza, Founder of International School of Tailoring
Watch this snippet from Lesson 34. The videos in The Alteration Library will be an enhanced version of this presentation style. This library will make fittings as easy as finding directions with GPS.
