Online suits tailor: review and recomend
Has anyone dealt with Hira's Fashion (www.hiras.com) which do visiting tailoring? I dealt with Andy Hira when he visited Dublin, Ireland. Very good salesman - not pushy like other travelling tailors - very keen to assess exactly what the custome would like and 'tailor' accordingly. Really good...- BeauDiddley

Bespoke - New book by James Sherwood
Think most of you are way too harsh on James Sherwood. It's not just meanspirited to call him a 'hack', it's unfair - he's a proud propagandist for Savile Row and this book is part of an overall strategy - using the coffee table book as a cudgel (and given the weight of the thing it could...- BeauDiddley

The Englishman's Suit
Thanks for the tip-off, LeonM - you're a gent. I've just finished reading it. I fully understand that it's almost an historical document, but if they weren't going to produce it in a 'retro' or facsimile manner, it's a shame they didn't enhance it a little with a few more illustrations or at...- BeauDiddley

Book: Savile Row - Ripped and Smoothed
I too have received a copy, having pre-ordered it on amazon and can thoroughly recommend it on a number of grounds. It's a finely written and tightly edited book. It's primarily an autobiography rather than a documentary-type book and Anderson's personality, with its dry English humour...- BeauDiddley

mycustomtailor.com/mysuitshop.com: Same thing?
I've been a customer of mycustomtailor for probably two years now and accordingly feel I have an insight into the issues in this thread. Thus in the spirit of SF I offer some tips. 1. Measurements I feel most problems arise because of bad measurements supplied by customers. I include myself in...- BeauDiddley

What do you think of my suit?
Congratulations - a cracking suit in a great stripe and with a classic British cut. It beats some of the bespoke efforts we've all seen here and elsewhere and is fantastic value. What's the fabric? Did you personalise it much - contrasting linings or quirky pockets or working buttons, that sort...- BeauDiddley

My experience with mycustomtailor.com
I've just received my first ever order from mycustomtailor.com and in all fairness I felt had to write to say that my experience is completely different to that of "Unhappy". I had several reasons to contact people in the company over added details and payments and the whole process couldn't...- BeauDiddley

Suit Adverts - What's Wrong With This Picture?
Greetings, gentlemen, Maybe I'm wrong here but this advert for a well-known English gentlemen's tailor seems to put a certain languid "look" above style. Am I alone in thinking that the DB jacket doesn't fit very well (certainly not a very British Cut)? By contrast the other model looks as if...- BeauDiddley

Things to do in Dublin
As a Dublin resident, this is my cue for my first post! Brown Thomas have recently renovated the store and moved the menswear area to the basement which is now predominantly black and glossy - the first time I visited I thought I'd fallen down a coal mine. As an unashamed old fogey, the...- BeauDiddley
