Wow – what a suit!

by Henry Herbert on February 19, 2010

Special Bespoke Suit

Bespoek Suit with Bespoke Trim

Special Bespoke Suit Cuff

An extremely rare breed of suit – brown. It is made even more rare by the special velvet trim collar. Made even more special by the very difficult sewing surround of the last cuff button! (The colour matches the lining). This was an incredibly difficult three-piece suit that took Henry Herbert 37.5 hours of tailoring to complete, but well worth the toil. The fabric is a splendid Super 100’s wool from Holland & Sherry.
