From Salvatore’s first workshop to Manhattan’s most trusted atelier — a legacy built stitch by stitch.
Salvatore opens L&S at 61st & Lexington, bringing Palermo's craft to Manhattan.
Wall Street discovers L&S. The workshop expands to nine master tailors.
Carl joins the family business, bridging old-world craft with modern clients.
