The Imperial Tailoring Co. marks its 7th jubilee at Gostiny Dvor with pomp
The Imperial Tailoring Co., the Moscow-based elite bespoke suits maker, held a reception for clients, partners and friends on October 7 at the famous Ritz Carlton Hotel Moscow, which was dedicated to the seventh year anniversary of the company’s operations in Gostiny Dvor.
To give a perspective on this local location, especially for foreigners, suffice it to mention that this building is frequently used by the nation’s top business and political elite, including the country’s powerful prime minister, Vladimir Putin, as the venue for their official press conferences and political parties' congresses.
Explaining the reason for holding this event, Sammy Kotwani, the founder and president of The Imperial Tailoring Co., said his company had made colossal progress and attained some historic milestones in its development, including the consolidation of its niche on the Russian and CIS bespoke business suites industries, over the past seven years. “My management team and I just feel that there is a need to highlight and commemorate these achievements with friends and business partners.”
The celebration was organized in a manner befitting India’s real hospitable traditions and Moscow chic. Prior to the beginning of the main events of the evening, the lounge of the hotel’s banquette hall was filled with different suits of unusual colorations and idea compositions. “It was my idea to make this unique and unusual suit colors collection, using astrology in collection dedicated to my company’s seventh year of operations in Gostiny Dvor,” Sammy Kotwani, the president of The Imperial Tailoring Co., who, an Indian by birth and nationality, told TRCW at the sidelines of the event.
“The jubilee party and celebrations, attended by over 200 guests, was organized in a manner befitting India’s real hospitable traditions and Moscow chic.”
Kotwani and his team combined all ancient Indian knowledge in astrology and numerology, linking the color of each suit and concrete day of the week to prosperity, success and good luck in personal and corporate lives. “It was, therefore, not surprising that the collection turned out bright and colorful. For instance, according to Veda Astrology, the color for Monday is white, Sunday is red, Thursday is orange, etc.,” Kotwani noted. “It goes without saying that all the suits were of perfect quality, as they were made from luxurious, super-quality fabrics, and of course, were hand-sewn by top professional tailors.”
It needs be noted here that The Imperial Tailoring Co. has now been producing men’s suits for over 20 years in Russia and CIS. Over this period, the company has earned itself a great reputation as one of the country’s best bespoke tailors, a fact evident in the huge number of VIP clients that attended the celebration, with some even donning the astrology-based collection suits specially for the event.
For instance, one of these clients, Russian famous boxer Kostya Tszyu, noted that in years of cooperation with The Imperial Tailoring Co. he has realized that the suits made for him by the company have always ‘charged him with positive energy,’ thus setting up his mind exclusively for victory. It was no coincidence that he chose Sunday’s red color.
Russian popular comic artist Nikolai Lukinsky gladly posed in his white suit, the color for Monday, noting that his choice was motivated by the fact that Monday for him represents a symbol of tabular rasa. Famous Russian contemporary painter Nikas Safronov was philosophical on real life meaning and his relation to it as he donned Tuesday’s yellow color.
First Channel TV’s Animal World program presenter Nikolai Drozdov expectedly dressed in a green suit. However, the country’s’ animal chief specialist’ did not know that the green color in Veda Astrology also stands for the color of week day – Wednesday. Composer Vladimir Presnyakov, Snr. donned an orange suit, the color of wisdom. Rossiya TV channel’s National Interest program host Dmitry Kiselev, wearing a blue suit, the color for Friday, so much liked his outfit that he proposed making it mandatory at government level for all Russians to have blue suits so that Friday will give them a clear feeling and composure.
In his reply to the proposal, Senator Alexander Pochinok, in his capacity as a representative of the authorities, noted that he would rather recommend the black color of Saturday, as every holiday has a backside.
One of the most significant highlights of the evening was the presence of the renowned Indian guru, Hasmukh Shah, who generously granted astrological consultations to the party guests. Commenting the use of astrology in the creation of the jubilee collection, the guru noted that “the Veda context of the astrological collection means success in all human endeavors: career, sexuality, good manners, and, of course, creative attitude to life.”
