A traditional English Double Breasted Suit
Tailor’s Notes
Recently, Lord Herbert (no relation) asked Henry Herbert Tailors to make this double breasted suit and this traditional English classic was cut to bring a slim double breasted finish. The photo probably speaks for itself.
The Construction
The suit was subsequently made and cut from a medium wool in England. Mainly hand tailored, this style takes 8-9 weeks to make, unless you opt for our Express Service. A halfway baste fitting and a forward baste fitting is completed, before the suit is finished and successfully delivered.
Details
Dugdales Bros is an independent, family owned Huddersfield firm founded in 1896 and they provided the cloth. The jacket has working cuffs and, additionally, four working breast buttons.
