01

What the Velour Bow is

Velvet at the neck, for the velvet jacket.

Why it works

Winter parties, New Year's Eve and cocktail nights, with a velvet or jacquard dinner jacket.

Wear it with

Made to measure, and noticed.

Very particular about how my clothes fit, and SALVE got the proportions just right. The shoulders, sleeve length and finish were exactly what I was looking for.

What stood out was the craftsmanship. The stitching is neat, the finishing is precise, and the fabric has a beautiful feel. Really pleased with how the final piece turned out.
Nishant
Had a fixed date I needed the outfit for, and SALVE delivered as promised. The fitting was impeccable, and everything was ready well in time. A very smooth experience.
Akshay
Excellent service from the first appointment to the final fitting. They listened carefully, understood what I wanted and paid attention to the smaller details. Would happily order again.
Jay
The fabric selection was the highlight for me. They explained the options well and helped me choose something that suited the garment. The finished result did full justice to the fabric.

I usually need several alterations to get the fit right. With SALVE, the fitting was remarkably precise. The garment sits beautifully, and the attention to proportion really shows.
