CROSSING THE POND: Last February, Daniel Day-Lewis stepped onto the red carpet at the Academy Awards in a suit from Paul Smith Bespoke, the tailor-made service exclusive to the designer's Westbourne House shop on London's Westbourne Grove. Those who liked what they saw can now get their chance to have a tailor-made Paul Smith suit Stateside. From May 5-8, the Bespoke service will be available at the Paul Paul Smith store on Greene Street in SoHo. During that period, the bespoke manager, as well as the tailor of the Westbourne House store, will be flown in to do first fittings on men and women. They will return in September for the second fitting, and suits, which will start at about $5,000, are expected to be ready two weeks after that.
Correction: the Bespoke manager
