Dugdale Bros have recently launched 3 new collections. Spring Jacketing, Summer Cascade and Tropical Breeze.

All are now available in our Birmingham Suite to view.

Drago have been introducing some new and interesting collections recently.   Previously their collections have centred on suiting cloth but lately we are starting to see more variance.

Our production team in Portugal are on their summer holidays until the beginning of Sept. So are Cacciopoli and Drapers and Barberis….the list goes on. If I’m ever going to take a holiday now feels like the best time.

So, this year I’m going to try something new and take a couple of weeks off when the bulk of our partners are also off. My last day will be Saturday 17th August. If there is anything urgent please let me know before this. I’ll be back on Tuesday 3rd September

Every season we introduce new bunches from our favourite merchants and continually we seek new and exciting fabrics to bolster our already extensive offering. Within the last few weeks, we have received a lot of exquisite cloth from Dugdale Bros, Loro Piana, Drago and others.

Some are updates on classic collections, such as Holland and Sherry’s perennial suiting “Crispaire”, Dugdale Bros tropical wool “New Fine Worsted” and Loro Piana’s timeless classic “Jackets and Trousers.”

Meet Ruben, the new face in our Birmingham Suite. Ruben joined us around 4 weeks ago and will be in the suite on Fridays and Saturdays. He’s a ball of energy and passion for tailoring and I’m sure you’re all going to love him to death.

Our brand new summer seasonal fabrics have arrived. A collection of summer tailoring and a collection of summer shirting. As always, they are available from stock and in limited amounts.

Each season our partners in Portugal select a range of fabrics from our wonderful fabric merchants and procure bigger amounts than normal to secure some great cloth at utterly wonderful price points. They don’t hang about, and nor should you. As always., they are worth leaping on and the stronger fabrics go quickly.

As most people will be aware, myself and the better half are expecting twin girls very soon. As they are twins we get to choose an elected cesarian and therefore the due date, which does help plan somewhat.

This is something I’m keen to fully enjoy (or endure, i’m not sure which)
