There Are A Couple Of Films,


we have enjoyed watching a few times,


Matthew Vaughn’s blockbuster Kingsman movies The Secret Service, The Golden Circle, we are both also looking forward to the prequel to the Kingsman movie series, The King’s Man, one thing they all have in common, is the tailors in London, but is it real? well yes as it happens, Huntsman served as the inspiration in all three movies,

if you have not seen the movies a short clip above, but what exactly do you go through to have a bespoke suit made? as part of an online course on fashion and design, MoMA visited the Savile Row tailors Anderson & Sheppard to learn how they go about making one of their bespoke suits, and this is what happens, 


behind a drawn curtain, a master cutter takes an initial series of 27 measurements: 20 for the jacket, 7 for the trousers. From these measurements, the cutter fashions a pattern in heavy brown paper. At the cutter’s table, the cloth is cut in using heavy shears, and the many pieces of fabric are rolled for each garment into tiny packages, which await the tailors, for a breakdown of Savile Row tailors have a look here, and how much does a bespoke gentleman's suit cost? at Huntsman their bespoke tailoring services start at £3,500 for a two-piece bespoke suit.
