Henry Herbert was commissioned to make a new waistcoat to accompany the morning suit we were making for a young solicitor from London for his wedding. The customer knew the style of waistcoat he wanted and drew a sketch for us. From this sketch we……..a) made a pattern, then b) ordered the fabric from the mill, to c) make a baste fitting for him before, d) moving on to complete the waistcoat…and the morning suit. This involved a huge amount of work, but was well worth the patience. The short video on the right hand side offers a glimpse of the finished waistcoat – although apologies….it is no Hollywood production.
