A short reminder that we will be closed for the last 2 weeks in August. This aligns us pretty neatly with our cloth merchants’ and makers’ holidays across Europe.
Matching up wth their dates makes sense and gives the business the least permissible downtime

We have been given the shutdown dates for our Portuguese Atelier and will align our summer holidays to suit. As such, we will be closed between the following dates (as will Portugal)
Few cloth merchants understand understated sophistication quite like Loro Piana, and the Mare collection continues that tradition with effortless precision.
Defined by light, airy fabrics, fluid silhouettes, and tactile refinement, it’s a collection to celebrate the important occasions in life

Loro Piana’s brand new Proposte Abiti and Giacche summer collections have arrived.
These sought-after fabrics are available in limited amounts and sell out year on year.
Bold and wearable checks are placed alongside textured plains and masculine dogtooths. Presented in a palette of wearable and considered blues, browns and beiges. The airforce blues being a personal highlight.
Loro Piana have been busy releasing some wonderful new collections in time for AW25.
The seasonal collections ecompass suitings with their Abiti card, and jackets with their Giacche cards.
These collections are some of the most sought after fabrics that Loro Piana offer. Both in terms of their exclusivity and also their style.
Our brand new autumn winter seasonal fabrics have arrived. From luxurious and tactile flannels by Vitale Barberis Canonico, buttery soft cashmere jackets from Di Pray and hardy merino suitings by Leichtfried Loden, we have your winter wardrobe covered.
Our shirtings feature a winter staple of brushed cottons, flannels, needle corduroy and textured chambrays by Getzner, Mileta and Albini.
High-twist cloth is as it sounds. A cloth that has yarns that have been twisted more tightly than normal, and often with more yarns that normal. As standard worsted cloth has 2 yarns, commonly referred to as 2-ply. High-twist cloth normally comes in 2-ply, 4-ply, and even 6-ply.
The 6-ply I found was even accompanied by a picture of some biceps alluding to its inherent strength. Made me smile.
I have a soft spot for linen jackets. I adore the way linen breathes and its natural tendency to rumpling is something that has grown on me over the years. And I get hot….
Initially I shied away from linen summer jackets and all their casual connotations. But certainly, since covid there has been a shift to ever more casual styles and more easy-going fabrics and I feel this is a good thing. It allows for more expression and more playfulness, and clothes should be enjoyed.
Bespoke linen jackets can be a blessing and a curse. On one hand, linen is a tough and pliab
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.”
When I see a new cloth, or a new merchant I like to make a garment up and experience it before I recommend it to people. With tailoring it’s not always a wild deviation from the norm but often a subtle change which can give new and exciting results. And sometimes it’s a cloth I know and love, but in a shade or style that feels somewhat different. This jacket fell into the latter. It’s a wool, silk and linen blend that the Italians are so good at producing but in a shade of green that felt just right.
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.
We are now stocking Dragos excellent summer seasonal collections. They will be available in limited amounts as with all seasonal fabrics so we recommend early ordering.
Drago are a pretty new (2 years) merchant for us but have impressed us with their style and eye for creating modern yet classic styles. They certainly have a grip on the direction of style and their seasonal collection for summer is a beauty!
We are pleased to announce that Colmore Tailors brand new range of bespoke shirts are now available.
Starting from £139 with delivery in 4-5 weeks.
We have been busy behind the scenes sampling, trialing and getting the product and fabrics just right. Anyone that knows us knows we are meticulous and passionate about suits.....and shirts are no different.
