Enrica Casentini
Enrica Casentini created this
season’s cover illustration for
SHOP Holland. Her colourful
and expressive aesthetic makes
her the perfect choice for this
cover, inspired by our feature
on page 42 about Amsterdam’s
less well-known areas and sights.
It shows a tulip – Holland’s
national fower – with parts of the
city peeping out between its petals.

ALL TOO TEMPTING
Sculptor and jewellery designer
Bibi van der Velden, who de-
scribes her creations as wearable
works of art, has collaborated
with renowned Dutch jewellers
Steltman to present a special col-
lection called Forbidden Fruit,
inspired by the Biblical story of
Adam and Eve. The snake fea-
tures as the main character in all
of the pieces, crafted from 18 carat
gold, with diamond-studded eyes
and engraved markings. Here its
tail is coiled around some mag-
nifcent blue topaz drops, making
a dazzling pair of earrings that will
be a distinctive addition to your
jewellery collection. gl

In Store: Black Sheep Road
Inspired by the English idea of a ‘black sheep’ as someone who stands apart from the group, Peter Landa was moved to create Black Sheep Road, a concept store based in Amsterdam that provides clothing for those with individual style. The overall aesthetic is rebellious and nonconformist, with a wide range of exciting young brands on ofer. Ximena Daneri paid a visit to learn more about this unique store

‘The store has been open for three

cause I love the street – it has a

designers, restaurants and curiosity

‘The street has become busier

While Amsterdam is well explored,

markets in Europe, named after
the 19th-century painter. Fruit,

even cameras compete for attention
at stalls run by good-humoured
Surinamese, Antillean, Turkish
and Moroccan vendors. Holland’s
most multicultural spot is a great
place to sample stroopwafels (car-
amel-flled wafes) and preserved
raw herring, as well as countless
ethnic dishes and goodies.
It’s not all about Albert Cuyp-
markt though; the neighbourhood
is packed with multicultural shops,
cafés, restaurants and bars, which
is why it’s often known as the
Quartier Latin of Amsterdam.
The best chicken satay in town
can be found at the lively Pilsvogel,
while Couscous Club is dedicated –
as the name suggests – to the north
African speciality, and Moksi does
the best curries, as well as superb
satay and roti.
Another Amsterdam develop-
ment has been the gradual, and
haphazard, gentrifcation of the
classic red-light districts, with
ultra-trendy barbers, art spaces
and retro-styled upmarket cofee

a ‘barcade’ (a post-industrial bar
teamed with a vintage amusement
arcade) and a hip café, Quartier
Putain, both in buildings with a
far from salubrious past, and the
self-styled ‘modern aristocratic’ Sir
Albert hotel in De Pijp has some in-
teresting neighbours.
To sample Amsterdam’s up-
market boutiques, the nicest area
to head for – and pleasantly com-
pact – is de Negen Straatjes (‘the
Nine Little Streets’), a treasure
trove of 17th- to 19th-century
buildings in the Unesco-protected
western canal district. Here you’ll
fnd more than 200 speciality shops:
shoemakers, ceramicists, boutiques
selling locally made fashion (such
as Hester van Eeghen, with her
eye-catching accessories, and Noa
Lifestyle), concept stores, home-
ware specialists, cookbook sellers,
delicatessens and much more.
The Rijksmuseum reopened
in 2013 after a 10-year hiatus for
renovation, and is a must-see, but
there are many smaller and less
obvious cultural institutions to ex-
plore. Among them is the Tas-
senmuseum Hendrikje, the mu-
seum of bags and purses, housed
in an elegant townhouse and run
by antique dealer and bag afcio-
nado Hendrikje Ivo. Highlights
of the collection, which includes
pieces dating back to the 16th
century, include everything from
delicate French silk bridal purses
to sparkling evening bags. A short
walk away, Museum van Loon
is a handsome private home built
in 1671, and flled with antiquesPH

There are many
smaller and less
obvious cultural
institutions
and Dutch Old Masters; a visit
provides an enthralling insight into
both the life of a wealthy mercan-
tile family and the typical décor
of Amsterdam’s more sumptuous
canalside houses.
From the historical to the ex-
perimental: Eye flm museum
and cinema is housed in a futur-
istic building which looks like
a grounded spaceship and has be-
come a highlight of Amsterdam’s
urban landscape. As well as exhi-
bitions about all things cinematic,
there’s a restaurant with stunning
waterfront views, and regular
screenings of ground-breaking
independent flms. You can even
check into a digital booth to quietly
watch a classic flm of your own
choice. To get there, take the free
foot ferry from Centraal station,
one of the city’s more pleasant and
local-style commutes.
Parents might be drawn
to Nemo, the city’s science mu-
seum, which ofers foors of chem-
istry labs, video-production booths
and giant-bubble blowing. Finally,
De Hortus provides a more whim-
sical kind of pleasure: this is one
of the longest-established bo-
tanical gardens in the world, and
its butterfy house is a futtering,
ethereal delight

When it comes to tailoring, one innovative Amsterdam brand is taking the world by storm. Ruairidh Pritchard
discovers why
The Italians are generally regarded
as leading the way in sharp suit-
ing, with Britain’s suave signature
style a close second, but the tide is
turning in tailoring, with Holland’s
very own Suitsupply spearheading
the made-to-measure revival.
50 | FEATURES
Above: Suitsupply founder Fokke de Jong
A good suit never goes out of
style, and whether it’s a classic dou-
ble-breasted blazer, a sophisticated
dinner jacket or a more contempo-
rary two-button sports coat, tai-
loring truly is the most important
part of a man’s wardrobe. Once
the signature of the super-wealthy,
a made-to-measure suit is the se-
cret of looking well dressed. While
seasonal of-the-peg suits can, at
best, last a few years, encompass-
ing passing trends as they come
and – inevitably – go, a suit that is
expertly made for your measure-
ments is a real investment in style.
While the fashion houses
and bespoke tailors lining Lon-
don’s Savile Row and Milan’s Via
Montenapoleone have catered to
the most discerning clients, ofer-
ing bespoke and made-to-measure
services to generations of the best-
dressed men, there’s something
of a made-to-measure revolution
occurring. The driving force is
Suitsupply, founded in 2000 by
27-year-old Amsterdam native
Fokke de Jong, who had already
hosted numerous ‘tailoring parties’
during his time at university. Now
CEO, de Jong plays an integral part
in the Suitsupply machine, and is
leading the way in expanding the
brand across Europe and the USA
– living out his personal mantra of
‘creating the best ft without ft-
ting in’.

by Suitsupply’s collections, but its
unconventional choice of locations.
‘We are hardly ever in among all the
other fashion brands,’ says de Jong.
‘We convert interesting big spaces
such as an old church, a penthouse
ofce or a big Soho loft into a com-
fortable and relaxed environment.
‘We are there for people who
want to create their own space –
not just to ft in, but to fnd their
own ft,’ says de Jong. ‘We want to
relate to our customers in a natural
way and combine product knowl-
edge with personality to create top-
notch service.’
The company prides itself on
combining sartorial fair and cre-
ativity with craftsmanship and
the latest technology to deliver
outstanding results, quickly and
efectively. It ofers a huge array
of in-store ‘while you wait’ tai-
loring alterations, while a fully
bespoke suit can be with the cus-
tomer in as little as fve weeks
from the frst consultation with a
Suitsupply specialist.
For the upcoming autumn/win-
ter 2014/15 collection, Suitsupply’s
head designer Murray Coetzee and
his team looked to the past for in-
spiration, combing the archives of
some of Italy’s fnest fabric produc-
ers. ‘Everything we do is through
the lens of classic Italian tailoring,’
says Coetzee, ‘but our time in the
archives has led to a collection that
is truly next level.’
Patterns range from subtle
checks to bold windowpanes and
classic houndstooth, emblazoned
across suits, coats, shirts, ties
and socks; an incredibly elegant
What Suitsupply is doing is just
that – a made-to-measure service,
but on a large scale, bringing be-
spoke to the masses. Using a com-
bination of the fnest fabrics, Eu-
ropean styling and expert in-store
tailoring services, the company is
opening the doors to custom-made
outftting for an increasing number
of young men across the globe who
are seeking to add their own style
to traditional tailoring.
‘Tailoring always feels very es-
tablished. We have a more unsys-
tematic approach to it,’ explains de
Jong. This is illustrated not only

double-breasted overcoat is one of
the collection’s many standouts.
Texture is also important for
autumn/winter 2014/15, with
fabrics from luxurious cashmere
blends to hardy tweeds. Mean-
while, variations on traditional
blues anchor the collection, rang-
ing from bold Neapolitan to deep
navy, with accents that run the
gamut from rich shades of burnt
orange to ochre, oxblood and for-
est green.
‘With their innovative use of
heritage fabrics, Coetzee and his
team have set a new bar with this
collection,’ says de Jong. ‘It’s about
seeing the past through a modern
lens, which is our signature ap-
proach to fashion.’
‘We designed these clothes for
the contemporary guy who’s seri-
ous about style, but likes to have
fun with it, too,’ explains Coetzee.
‘With so many classically inspired,
complementary fabrics to choose
from, we’ve given him everything
he needs to make his own unique
statement this season.’
What’s clear from Suitsupply’s
success is that made-to-measure
has evolved from a signature of the
traditional gentlemen’s wardrobe
into a staple for the modern man
who can not only beneft from a
perfectly cut suit, but also have
his choice of fabrics and fnishing
– ensuring his suit fts his style as
well as his measurements

Holland’s restaurant scene is one
of Europe’s most diverse; diners
are as likely to fnd a traditional
meal with meat, potatoes and veg-
etables as they are an authentic
Indian, Chinese, Italian or Turk-
ish dish. Even so, the country has
its own rich culinary heritage;
the Dutch once dominated the
world’s spice trade and the re-
gion’s historic banquets were lav-
ish multi-course events. Today,
a simpler approach is favoured,
with the Netherlands’ famed
cheeses, pancakes and sweets tak-
ing centre stage.
The country now plays host to
around 100 Michelin-starred eat-
eries, with fne-dining establish-
ments located throughout Amster-
dam, Rotterdam and The Hague,
as well as the country’s gourmet
capital, Maastricht. These res-
taurants typically combine local
and exotic ingredients with clas-
sical French culinary techniques
to produce standout menus. How-
ever, traditional Dutch dishes
still have a place in the culinary
landscape, such as herring with
onion or pickle and French fries
covered with mayonnaise.

With a menu that makes the jour-
ney to east Amsterdam more than
worthwhile, Rijsel combines fne
French cuisine with Flanders
charm. The restaurant’s stripped-
back industrial interior has a retro
feel that refects the no-nonsense
approach of its cuisine. The well-
edited menu is updated regularly,
but expect dishes to be French-
inspired and based on pure, au-
thentic favours. The restaurant’s
signature dish comes highly rec-
ommended: a spit-roasted rose-
mary-infused poussin, served on a
bed of steamed vegetables.

РУССКИЙ ПЕРЕВОД
Помимо популярных
достопримечательностей
Амстердам может предложить
гостям еще немало интересного.
Лидия Белл в поисках
затерянных мест
Хотя Амстердам кажется
вдоль и поперек изученным и
исследованным, он продолжает
таить в себе мириады укромных
уголков, сокрытых от глаз
обывателя. Одним из таких
мест является амстердамский
район De Pijp («Труба»), в центре
которого расположился один из
крупнейших в Европе рынков
– Albert Cuypmarkt, названный
так в честь художника XIX
века. Торговые лавки ломятся
от всевозможных фруктов,
овощей, одежды, обуви и
даже бытовой техники, а
покупателей приветствуют
улыбчивые продавцы самых
разных национальностей,
от выходцев из Суринама и
Антильских островов до турок
и марокканцев. Это самое
подходящее место для того
чтобы попробовать вафли
с карамелью «stroopwafels»,
голландскую селедку, а также
множество этнических блюд
и лакомств.
42: City Secrets
Городские секреты
Однако рынок не
единственное достоинство
района. Буквально на каждом
углу здесь можно встретить
необычный магазинчик,
ресторан или кафе, из-за
чего район часто называют
«Латинским кварталом»
Амстердама. Вероятно, лучшее
сатэ в городе можно найти в
оживленном ресторане Pilsvogel,
Couscous Club знаменит северо-
африканской кухней, а в Moksi
готовят превосходное карри, сатэ
и роти.
Одной из последних реформ
в Амстердаме стало постепенное
облагораживание знаменитых
кварталов красных фонарей.
Череда непристойных заведений
разбавилась современными
парикмахерскими салонами,
художественными галереями
и стильными кафе-барами.
Среди последних открытий
– постиндустриальный бар
«barcade», расположенный
внутри винтажного шоппинг-
молла и хипстерское кафе
«Quartier Putain» в районе De
Wallen, а также роскошный и
оригинальный отель Sir Albert в
районе De Pijp.
В поисках престижных
бутиков стоит отправиться
в район de Negen Straatjes
(«Девять Улочек»), занесенный
в список охраняемых объектов
ЮНЕСКО благодаря хорошо
сохранившимся зданиям XVII-
IXX веков. Здесь расположилось

более 200 различных магазинов, включая обувные мастерские, студии керамики, бутики местных дизайнеров (таких как Noa Lifestyle и Hester van Eeghen с ее очаровательными аксессуарами), концептуальные магазины, салоны предметов интерьера, книжные магазины, деликатесные лавки и многое другое.
В 2013 году государственный музей Rijksmuseum вновь открыл двери для посетителей спустя почти десять лет непрерывных реставрационных работ. Помимо музея, который непременно стоит посетить каждому, в Амстердаме есть еще немало мест культурного досуга. Среди них – Музей сумок (Tassenmuseum Hendrikje), расположенный в элегантном особняке антиквара и коллекционера сумок Хендрикье Иво. Коллекция экспонатов, часть которых относится еще к XVI веку, включает все: от шелковых свадебных клатчей до сверкающих вечерних сумок. В нескольких шагах в здании 1671 года расположен музей «Museum van Loon», наполненный выдающимися работами старых мастеров. Здесь можно окунуться в быт аристократической семьи и познакомиться с типичным декором богатых домов Амстердама.
От истории к современности: музей кинематографии «Eye flm», разместившийся в футуристическом здании в форме космического корабля, стал отличительной чертой
городского ландшафта. Основная тематика местных выставок, как и полагается, посвящена киноискусству. Дополняет атмосферу оригинальный ресторан с потрясающими видами из окон и кинотеатр, где регулярно проводятся показы лучших работ независимого кинематографа. Кроме того, здесь имеются небольшие кабинки, в которых можно в спокойной обстановке посмотреть фильм на ваш выбор. Чтобы добраться до музея нужно воспользоваться одним из самых приятных и к тому же бесплатных видов местного транспорта – паромом, отходящим от станции Centraal.
Если вы путешествуете с детьми, то вам наверняка будет интересно посетить музей науки «Nemo», вместивший в себя несколько этажей с химическими лабораториями, интерактивными панелями и огромными мыльными пузырями. И, наконец, ботанический сад De Hortus, считающийся одним из старейших в мире, и местная оранжерея с живыми бабочками непременно доставят вам море удовольствия.albertcuypmarkt.nl, pilsvogel.nl, couscousclub.nl, moksi.nl, quartierputain.nl, siralberthotel.com, de9straatjes.nl, tassenmuseum.nl,museumvanloon.nl, eyeflm.nl, электронной nemo.nl, ehortus.nl

Когда дело касается пошива костюмов сложно найти равных инновационному амстердамскому бренду. Руайрид Притчард выясняет что к чему
Итальянские портные всегда считались признанными мастерами в области пошива деловых костюмов, оставляя позади поклонников изысканного стиля – англичан. Однако всему когда-либо суждено измениться. Вот и сейчас попутный ветер наполнил паруса голландского флагмана мужской моды – Suitsupply, возродившего традиции классического костюма.
Хороший костюм никогда не выходит из моды, будь то классический двубортный пиджак, изысканный смокинг или современный блейзер на двух пуговицах – костюм был и всегда будет неотъемлемой частью мужского гардероба. Костюм, сделанный на заказ и бывший когда-то признаком состоятельности, теперь составляет главный секрет элегантного стиля. Сезонные костюмы, купленные уже готовыми в магазине, смогут прослужить в лучшем случае несколько лет, после чего уйдут в прошлое, как и многие модные тенденции. Что же касается костюмов, сделанных на заказ по вашим меркам, то они станут настоящей инвестицией в
непреходящую моду. Пока дома моды и
дизайнерские ателье, располагающиеся на лондонской Сэвил-Роу и маланской Виа Монтенаполеоне были заняты обслуживанием самых взыскательных клиентов, в мире мужских костюмов произошла своего рода революция. Ее организатором стала марка Suitsupply, основанная в 2000 году 27-летним жителем Амстердама – Фокке де Йонг, который, стоит заметить, еще в годы своего обучения в университете проявлял себя весьма незаурядно. Будучи ныне генеральным директором, де Йонг является ключевой фигурой Suitsupply и прилагает все усилия для продвижения марки в Европе и США. Его личное кредо – «Идеальный крой без примерок и подгонок!».
C одной стороны Suitsupply предоставляет услуги индивидуального пошива одежды, но в то же время делает этот сервис доступным для многих. Сочетание первоклассных тканей, европейского стиля, и возможности профессиональной подгонки костюма прямо в магазине открывает двери растущему числу молодых людей по всему миру, желающих добавить к одежде нотку индивидуальности.
«Портняжное дело всегда считалось чем-то традиционным и устоявшимся. Однако у нас есть свой уникальный
globalblue.com
96
подход», – объясняет де Йонг. Эту уникальность можно легко заметить не только по самим коллекциям, но и по необычности расположения магазинов бренда. «Нас едва можно отнести к числу модных брендов, – говорит де Йонг. – Мы стараемся найти большие и интересные помещения, такие как старая церковь, пентхаус или квартира в стиле лофт и превращаем их в комфортное пространство с непринужденной атмосферой».
«Мы работаем для людей, которые хотят построить свой собственный образ и найти одежду идеального кроя. – поясняет де Йонг, – Мы хотим установить тесные отношения с нашими покупателями, сочетая индивидуальный подход и превосходное знание продукта, чтобы создать первоклассный сервис».
Компания гордится тем, что смогла объединить портняжное мастерство и креативность с самыми современными технологиями, что помогло быстро добиться эффективных результатов. Бренд предлагает целый комплекс сервисов для подгонки одежды прямо в магазине, а готовый костюм, сделанный на заказ, будет готов уже через пять недель после консультации со специалистом Suitsupply.
Готовясь к предстоящей весенне-зимней коллекции 2014/15, главный дизайнер Suitsupply Мюррей Кутзе
и его подопечные решили пересмотреть архивы лучших итальянских производителей ткани. «Все что мы делаем проходит через призму классической традиции итальянского костюма, – говорит Кутзе, – однако идеи, возникшие у нас при пересмотре архивов, привели к созданию коллекции совершенно нового уровня».
Узоры, украшающие серию костюмов, блейзеров, галстуков и носков, варьируются от мелкой и крупной клетки до классических «гусиных лапок». Элегантный двубортный блейзер – один из самых ярких образцов коллекции.
Текстура также стала немаловажным фактором в сезоне осень-зима 2014/15. Среди тканей преобладают роскошные смеси кашемира и прочного твида. Основным элементом цветовой гаммы остается традиционный синий, варьирующийся от светло-голубого до темно-синего с оттенками желтовато-красного, бледно-желтого, темно-красного и темно-зеленого.
«Благодаря инновационному применению традиционных тканей Кутзе и его команда смогли достичь превосходных результатов. – говорит де Йонг, – Смотреть на прошлое сквозь призму современности – это и есть суть нашего подхода к моде».
«Наша одежда ориентирована на современного мужчину, который серьезно относится к своему стилю,

典型的例子，这是阿姆斯特丹最有活力
的地区之一。欧洲最大露天市场之一的
Albert Cuypmarkt是其跳动的心脏，
这个市场因一位19世纪画家而得名。在
友好的苏里南、安的列斯、土耳其与摩
洛哥商贩的摊位上，水果、蔬菜，鱼、衣
服、鞋子、甚至相机等货品争相吸引着
人们的注意力。这个最能体现荷兰多元
文化的处所，也是品尝stroopwafels（
焦糖夹心松饼）的好地方，在这里还可
以尝到以原始方法保存的鲱鱼，以及不
胜枚举的民间菜与各色美食。
Albert Cuypmarkt并非该区的全
部；临近的居民区内挤满了来自各种文
化的店铺、咖啡馆、餐馆和酒吧，这也
是其被称为阿姆斯特丹的拉丁角的原
因。在生气勃勃的Pilsvogel可以找到
城中最美味的沙爹鸡肉，而Couscous
Club——顾名思义——则是向北非文
化致敬，Moksi则为人们奉上最好的咖
喱，风味绝佳的沙爹与烤肉。
阿姆斯特丹的另一处转变则发生
在传统红灯区，非常偶然的，这里正逐
渐变成高级社区，在一片默默无闻的
店铺之间，时尚前卫的美发沙龙、艺术
空间与复古风格的高级咖啡馆如雨后
春笋般涌现。在De Wallen的心腹地
带，“barcade”（后工业风格酒吧与复
古娱乐长廊）与时髦咖啡店Quartier-
Putain于今日开幕，两者都坐落于过去
并不光彩的建筑物内，而De Pijp区自
诩为“摩登贵族”的Sir Albert酒店也有
一些不甚有趣的近邻。
想了解阿姆斯特丹的高档精品店，
最应前往的区域——恰好是排布紧凑
的——de NegenStraatjes（九街），这
处宝库位于西部运河区某处受联合国
教科文组织保护的17到19世纪建筑中。
这里聚集着超过200家特色小店：从制
鞋店、陶瓷点、贩售本土时尚品牌的精
品店（如Hester van Eeghen及其引人
瞩目的配饰系列，还有Noa Lifestyle等
品牌）、概念店、家居用品店、菜谱专卖
店、熟食店等。
历经10年翻新，在2013年重新开
放的国家博物馆是不容错过之处，但城
中也有许多规模较小且鲜有人知的文
化机构值得一探。其中之一是Tassen-
museumHendrikje，包袋与钱夹博物
馆，它位于一栋联排别墅中，由古董商
和包迷Hendrikje Ivo运营。展览的亮
点，包括可追溯到16世纪的藏品，还有
从精致的法国丝绸新娘手包到闪亮夺
目的晚宴包等。距此几步之遥，是坐落
于一栋建于1671年的美丽私人住宅中
的Museum van Loon，这里收藏着古
董与荷兰古典大师的作品；到此一游不
仅能详实了解富有商贾家庭的日常生
活，还能欣赏到阿姆斯特丹丰富的运河
边建筑的典型内饰。
从历史感到实验性：Eye电影博物
馆和影院坐置身于一座看起来像停靠
着的宇宙飞船的未来风格建筑中，并已
成为阿姆斯特丹都市景观中的一大亮
点。除了关于电影方方面面的事无巨细
的展览，这里还有一家坐拥迷人海滨景
色的餐厅，并定期上映具有开拓性的独
立电影。在这里你甚至可以步入数码放
映间内，选择自己想看的经典电影静静
观赏。您可以从中央火车站搭乘免费渡
轮，这一城中最惬意也最具当地特色的
交通工具前往这里。
带孩子的游客还会被Nemo科学
博物馆所吸引，这里设立着化学实验
室、视频制作间与巨型吹泡泡装置。最
后，De Hortus为人们提供了一种异想
天开的愉悦：这是世界上历史最悠久的
植物园之一，其中的蝴蝶园将为您带来
空灵飘逸的美妙体验。

聚焦品牌
在西服领域，有个创意十足的阿姆斯
特丹品牌正在全球范围内掀起一股风
暴。Ruairidh Pritchard带您深入探究
意大利人通常被认作是西服剪裁的领
导者，英国则以潇洒倜傥的招牌风格紧
随其后，然而在西服领域潮流正在转
向，荷兰本土品牌Suitsupply正引领着
订制西服的复兴。
一件好的西装永远不会落伍，无论
是经典的双排扣西服，还是繁复的晚礼
服，或是更为摩登的双扣运动外套，剪
裁都是男性服装中最重要的部分。量身
定制的西服曾是超级富豪的专属，也是
让男士们衣冠楚楚的不二法门。季节性
的成衣西服充其量可以穿上几年，并随
着潮流更替而不可避免地被淘汰，但是
量身定制的西服却是对个人形象的一笔
货真价实的投资。
服装品牌与定制商林立的伦敦
萨维尔街与米兰蒙特拿破仑大街，服务
着最为挑剔的顾客们，为一代代最善着
装的男士们提供定制与量体裁衣服务，
与此同时一股定制届的变革正在悄然
发生。驱动的源头即来自Suitsupply，
这个2000年成立的品牌的创始者，是
27岁的阿姆斯特丹人Fokke de Jong，
他在就读大学期间就主办过多次“西服
派对”。作为品牌首席执行官的de Jong
在企业中扮演着举足轻重的角色，他
领导着品牌进军欧洲、美国——实践
着自己“不用量身就能拥有最佳剪裁”的
宣言。
Suitsupply的做法非常简单——
就是量体裁衣，但是在大规模的基础
上，从而将定制带给普通消费者。品牌
将最上乘的面料、欧陆式风格与专业店
内量体服务相结合，将定制西服带给全
世界越来越多期望为传统剪裁注入个人
风格的年轻人。
“定制行业总让人觉得一成不变。
我们则采用了一种不那么系统性的方
法。”de Jong解释道。这一点不仅体现
在Suitsupply的产品系列中，还影响着
其门店的地理位置。“我们很少出现在
其他时尚店铺的周围，”de Jong表示。“
我们将有趣的大空间，像是古老的教
堂，复式写字楼或宽敞的Soho复式阁
楼改造成舒适、宽松的购物环境。”
“我们为那些想要创造自我空间的
人们而生——不只是去匹配现有的选
择，而是要找到自己合适的，”de Jong
说。“我们希望与顾客们以自然的方式
相处，将产品知识与个性相结合来打造
一流的服务。”
品牌以将精致剪裁与杰出创意，和
精湛工艺及最新技术相结合，创造出在
市场上脱颖而出的产品而自豪。品牌为
在店内等候的顾客提供丰富的个性化
选择，而全定制西服的顾客，从与Suit-
supply专家的第一次进行咨询起的短
短五周内，就能拿到最后的成品。
对于即将到来的2014/15年秋/冬

Banyak yang ditawarkan Amster-
dam bagi pelancong yang siap me-
langkah jauh dari jalan-jalan yang
umum dilintasi. Lydia Bell men-
emukan beberapa tempat menarik
yang tersembunyi di kota ini.
Walaupun Amsterdam sudah dike-
nal luas, ada banyak sekali kantong-
kantong yang jarang dilintasi na-
mun terkenal bagi pelancong yang
lebih suka bertualang. Satu contoh
misalnya De Pijp (‘the Pipe’), salah
satu kawasan paling meriah di Am-
sterdam. Jantung utama kawasan
ini adalah Albert Cuypmarkt, salah
satu pasar luar ruangan yang terbe-
sar di Eropa, diberi nama yang ses-
uai nama seorang pelukis abad ke
19. Buah-buahan, sayur-sayuran,
ikan, pakaian, sepatu dan bahkan
kamera bersaing untuk dilirik di
berbagai tenda yang dikelola oleh
para pedagang suka humor dari Su-
riname, Antila, Turki dan Maroko.
Lokasi paling multikultur di Be-
landa ini adalah tempat yang sangat
pas untuk mencicipi stroopwafels

haring mentah yang diawetkan, dan
tak terhitung banyaknya hidangan
dan makanan lezat dari berbagai
etnik.
Ada lagi selain Albert Cuyp-
markt; kawasan sebelahnya dikemas
dengan berbagai toko multikultur,
kafe, restoran dan bar, sehingga
daerah ini sering disebut dengan
nama Quartier Latin of Amsterdam
(Daerah Latin Amsterdam). Sate
ayam yang paling enak di kota ini
bisa ditemukan di Pilsvogel yang
ramai, sementara Couscous Club
dikhususkan buat – sesuai dengan
namanya – makanan khas Afrika
Selatan, dan Moksi menyediakan
kari yang paling lezat, selain sate
juga roti yang aduhai enaknya!
Pengembangan Amsterdam
lainnya adalah pembaruan kawasan
lampu merah klasik yang terjadi
bertahap dan tak beraturan den-
gan banyak tempat pangkas yang
sangat trendi, ruang kesenian dan
bar kafe papan atas dengan berb-
agai model gaya yang diapit gerai
dengan reputasi kurang baik. Di
jantung De Wallen, baru-baru ini
‘barcade’ (bar pasca industri yang
dipadukan dengan tempat hiburan
tempo dulu) dibuka bersama kafe
modern, Quartier Putain, keduanya
di dalam bangunan yang bisa mem-
buat orang lupa dengan waktu,
dan hotel Sir Albert dengan gaya
"aristokrat modern"-nya di De Pijp
berdampingan dengan bangunan
menarik lainnya.
Untuk mencoba butik papan
atas Amsterdam, tempat yang pal-
ing bagus untuk dituju – dan serba
lengkap – adalah Negen Straatjes
(‘the Nine Little Streets’), harta
terpendam dari bangunan abad
ke 17 hingga 19 di kawasan kanal
barat yang dilestarikan Unesco. Di
sini Anda akan menemukan lebih
dari 200 toko khusus: toko pembuat
sepatu, keramik, butik yang men-
jual mode pakaian buatan setempat
(seperti Hester van Eeghen, dengan
aksesorinya yang menambat hati,
dan Noa Lifestyle), toko konsep,
khusus perlengkapan rumah, buku
masak-memasak, toko makanan
dan lainnya.
Rijksmuseum dibuka kembali
pada 2013 setelah istirahat 10 tahun
karena renovasi, dan adalah tempat
yang menarik untuk dikunjungi,
namun di sana juga ada banyak
balai budaya yang lebih kecil dan
sederhana yang menarik untuk dili-
hat Di antaranya Tassenmuseum
Hendrikje, museum tas dan dom-
pet, berada di sebuah rumah elegan
yang dikelola oleh pedagang barang
antik dan penggemar tas Hendrikje
Ivo. Koleksi utamanya yang ter-
masuk barang-barang berasal dari
abad ke 16, mencakup mulai dari
dompet pengantin sutera dari Pran-
cis yang lembut hingga tas malam
yang berkilau. Beberapa langkah
tidak jauh dari sana terdapat Mu-
seum van Loon, sebuah rumah
pribadi menarik yang dibangun
tahun 1671, berisi barang-barang
antik serta Dutch Old Masters; kun-
jungan ke tempat ini akan membuat
Anda lebih memahami kehidupan
keluarga pedagang kaya raya dan
dekorasi khas rumah-rumah Am-
sterdam yang lebih mewah di tepi
kanal.

berada di dalam bangunan futuris-

angkasa yang sudah purnabakti dan
menjadi sorotan pemandangan kota
Amsterdam. Selain pameran ten-
tang semua yang terkait sinematik,
ada juga restoran dengan peman-

kan, dan pemutaran layar reguler
untuk flm-flm independen yang
menggemparkan dan inovatif. Bah-

Untuk ke sana, naik feri gratis dari

Orang tua mungkin tertarik
ke Nemo, museum sains, yang me-

ia, stan produksi video dan peniu-
pan gelembung raksasa. Akhirnya,
De Hortus menampilkan sebuah
jenis kesenangan yang lebih unik:
ini adalah salah satu kebun raya ter-

adalah tempat menyenangkan yang
lembut dan menghibur.

Dalam Fokus: Suitsupply
Bila menyangkut penjahitan, salah
satu merek inovatif Amsterdam
terbukti unggul di dunia. Ruairidh
Pritchard menemukan mengapa
Italia biasanya dikenal paling ung-
gul untuk padanan pakaian yang
kontras, sementara Inggris tidak
jauh di tempat kedua untuk gaya
khasnya yang elegan, namun ter-
kait penjahitan tidak demikian
halnya, Suitsupply milik Belanda
memimpin di depan dalam hal ke-
bangkitan dibuat-sesuai-ukuran.
Setelan yang bagus tidak per-
nah ketinggalan gaya, dan tidak soal
apakah itu blazer dengan dua kanc-
ing dada klasik, jaket makan malam
yang mentereng, atau pun jas olah-
raga dua kancing yang lebih kon-
temporer, penjahitan tak diragukan
berperan sangat penting dalam
lemari pakaian pria. Suatu saat
ciri khusus orang super kaya akan
memandang setelan yang dibuat-
sesuai-ukuran menjadi penentu
berpenampilan rapi. Walaupun
setelan musiman dengan ukuran
bebas dapat, paling banter, ber-
tahan beberapa tahun, melibatkan
tren yang sedang berjalan pada saat
datang dan - tak terelakkan – pergi,
setelan yang dibuat dengan terampil
menurut ukuran Anda merupakan
investasi yang nyata dalam gaya.
Walaupun rumah mode dan
penjahit sesuai pesanan yang berada
di London’s Savile Row dan Milan’s
Via Montenapoleone telah menye-
diakan sesuai keinginan klien yang
kritis, selain menawarkan layanan
sesuai pesanan dan dibuat-sesuai-
ukuran untuk generasi dengan pria
berbusana terbaisesuatu laink, ada
juga sesuatu dari revolusi dibuat-
sesuai-ukuran yang sedang berlang-
sung. Tenaga pendorongnya adalah

Suitsupply, didirikan tahun 2000
oleh Fokke de Jong yang berusia 27
tahun dan asli orang Amsterdam,
yang telah mengadakan banyak
‘pesta menjahit’ selama masa kuli-
ahnya. Kini sebagai CEO, de Jong
berperan penting untuk mesin Suit-
supply, dan sedang memimpin cara
baru untuk perluasan merek ke ke
seluruh Eropa, AS – meneruskan
mantra pribadinya untuk ‘meng-
hasilkan sesuatu yang sangat pas
tanpa mengepaskannya’.
Itulah apa yang sedang di-
lakukan Suitsupply - layanan yang
dibuat-sesuai-ukuran, namun
dalam skala yang luas, menghad-
irkan sesuai pesanan ke banyak
orang. Dengan mengombinasikan
kain-kain terbaik, gaya Eropa, dan
pakar untuk layanan penjahitan
dalam toko, perusahaan ini mem-
buka pintu menuju penyediaan pak-
aian sesuai permintaan bagi para
pria muda yang semakin banyak di
seluruh dunia yang ingin menam-
bahkan gayanya sendiri ke penjahi-
tan tradisional.
‘Penjahitan selalu terasa ma-
pan, diterima apa adanya. Kami
memiliki pendekatan yang lebih ti-
dak sistematik akan hal ini,’ jelas de
Jong. Ini terlihat tidak hanya pada
koleksi-koleksi Suitsupply, tapi juga
pada pilihan lokasinya yang tak laz-
im. ‘Kami jarang berada di antara
semua merek mode lainnya,’ kata de
Jong. ‘Kami mengubah ruangan be-
sar yang menarik seperti gereja tua,
kantor di griya tawang, atau Soho
loft besar menjadi lingkungan yang
nyaman dan rileks.
‘Bagi mereka yang ingin mem-
buat ruangannya sendiri kami siap
membantu – tidak hanya untuk
ditempati namun untuk menemu-
kan apa yang paling cocok untuk
mereka tempati’ kata de Jong.
‘Kami ingin membangun relasi
dengan pelanggan kami dengan
cara yang alami dan memadukan
pengetahuan produk dengan ke-
pribadian untuk menghasilkan lay-
anan terunggul.’
Perusahaan ini merasa bangga
karena telah memadukan bakat
menjahit dan kreativitas dengan ke-
ahlian serta teknologi terkini untuk
mencapai hasil yang menakjubkan,
cepat dan efektif. Ada banyak sekali
pilihan alternatif jahitan di dalam
toko ‘sementara Anda menunggu’
yang ditawarkan, sementara itu
setelan lengkap sesuai pesanan su-
dah bisa diterima pelanggan dalam
waktu lima minggu sejak kon-
sultasi pertama dengan spesialis
Suitsupply.
Untuk koleksi musim gugur/
dingin 2014/15 berikutnya, kepala
desainer Suitsupply Murray Coe-
tzee dan timnya mencari inspirasi
ke masa silam, meneliti arsip dari
beberapa produsen kain terbaik Ita-
lia. ‘Semua yang kami lakukan ha-
rus sesuai dengan kaca mata jahitan
Italia klasik’ kata Coetzee, ‘namun
selama kami di arsip kami telah
menghasilkan koleksi yang sesung-
guhnya berada pada tingkat yang
lebih tinggi.’
Kisaran corak mulai dari subtle
check (kain bercorak v) hingga bold
windowpane (kain bercorak kotak-
kotak besar) dan classic hound-
stooth (kain bercorak kisi diago-
nal), menghiasi semua setelan, jas,
kemeja, dasi dan kaos kaki; mantel

2014/15, dengan kain dari kasmir

variasi yang menggunakan rentang
nuansa warna mulai dari bayangan

‘Menggunakan kain warisan
inovatif, Coetzee dan timnya telah
mendirikan bar baru dengan koleksi
ini,’ kata de Jong. ‘Ini adalah soal
melihat masa silam melalui kaca
mata modern, yang merupakan
pendekatan khas kami untuk mode.’
‘Kami mendesain pakaian-
pakaian ini bagi mereka yang bu-
kan hanya memandang serius gaya,
tapi juga suka menambah sesuatu
yang keren padanya,’ papar Coe-
tzee. ‘Dengan begitu banyak kain
pelengkap dengan inspirasi klasik
yang bisa dipilih, kami telah mem-
berikan segalanya yang ia (Coetzee)
butuhkan untuk mengekspresikan
pernyataannya yang khas pada
musim ini.’

bahwa dibuat-sesuai-ukuran telah

Floris van Bommel comes from a
family that has been making leather
shoes by hand since 1734 – and by
royal appointment since 1952. The
Van Bommel brand is synonymous
with high-quality in classic styles;
however, Floris van Bommel’s
father also wanted to create more
fashionable styles, and so estab-
lished a second line named after
the son who would go on to in-
herit the business. Combining
a liberated approach to design
with skills and craftsmanship
passed down through nine gen-
erations, Floris van Bommel of-
fers on-trend styles with all the
