Henry Herbert - the Scootering Savile Row Tailoring Service.
A very brave and very striking fabric for a suit we are making for the Managing Director of a large media firm. The fabric is from Bateman Ogden, a Yorkshire based mill who are so old-school they don’t even have a website. The colour looks fabulous and will serve as a great suit for all occasions.
An example of an excellent and very fine cloth from Taylor & Lodge of Huddersfield, England, in a recent Henry Herbert three-piece suit. The secret is, “always keep the style simple and the cloth special.”
This is a great piece by the BBC (image copyright: BBC).“
“The way a man wears his trousers may reveal his age, research says. But when it comes to waistband placement, history shows there is no golden rule. You no longer have to eye his hairline to determine a man’s age. There’s a new way to figure out just how old he is: take a look at his beltline. A survey from department store Debenhams suggests that a man’s waistband rises and falls throughout his life. Trousers bottom out at the age of 16 with below-the-hip styles and peak at 57, just seven inches below the armpit. Young boys may wear their trousers at their natural waist while being dressed by their parents, but they generally don’t return to this style until they reach their late 20s.”
