A great looking waistcoat we have made using a rare fishtail lining for Freddie Smith who, with Phil O’Farrell, is part of the band Freddie Smith & Phil O’Farrell. (We made Phil a great looking shirt too which you can see under our shirts section). They play great Irish inspired tunes and you can listen to some of them on their MySpace account here.

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. bokk a tailor smaller Wow what a suit!
