Steed Semi-Bespoke Suit, made in England. This is a straight finish commission for a new client in Philadelphia. Happy with this out of the box, just some tweaks needed which we will do, such as soften the sleeve head. #MadeinEngland #SavileRow

Long time client, Lee came to order another suit & show us a Suit Jacket that we made for him 20 years ago in 2004. Still looking as good as ever. He also told us that it's not exactly a sound business plan to be making suits that he can still wear 20 years later! 😂

Most people don't need custom tailoring and would be better off with quality ready-to-wear than budget bespoke. If you want to get the drape cut, I recommend Steed in the UK, a company I've used for over a decade. Edwin is a former head cutter at A&S.

Bamboo season has finally arrived. First proper Spring day of the year at our Hampshire Showroom & Workshop. Steed Bespoke Coat made from 100% Bamboo. Soft like cashmere but a great Spring/Summer weight.

Fitting for a Two-Piece Chalkstripe Suit. Made from a high twist fabric, woven by Lovat Mills in Scotland. Perfect for traveling & hot climates due to it's crease resistant, open weave nature. Allowing the air to travel through it. #SavileRow #Bespoke

Bespoke Tweed Sport Coat made from SJ3 by Fox Brothers & Co. The final photo from their website is a better representation of the beautiful colours of this tweed. Unfortunately Chicago Hotel lighting isn't great. #SteedTailors #SavileRow #Tweed

The term "drape" refers to how excess fabric "drapes" along the armhole. This is done through drafting and tailoring. The chest piece inside is cut on a bias, so that the chest is more rounded. On a clean chest, the garment would sit closer to the body. This is by Steed Bespoke:

If you're interested in bespoke tailoring and based in the United States, I have some trunk show announcements to share with you. There's a generally observed rule when it comes to ordering clothes from a bespoke tailor: stick to the house style. The term "house style" refers

In the bespoke tailoring world, the terms crookening and straightening are heavily contested. Different tailors have diff views on the matter, but one of my tailors (Edwin DeBoise) gives his view here. It may be that the Schiaparelli suit wasn't cut right for Bad Bunny's posture
