Glorious Herringbone in a Henry Herbert suit

Bespoke Herringbone Suit

Herringbone Suit

An excellent example of a herringbone fabric….but very difficult to photograph too! The fabric is from Hield mills, in Huddersfield and is a glorious blue. This suit is in its baste stage for one of our customers who works for a large international financial group and who interestingly told us the Chinese save 50% of all of their income. It puts the British, including Henry Herbert, to shame. Unfortunately the photograph may not do the pattern justice, but it will turn out to be a very striking and very sharp suit.

Wow – what a suit!

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!
