Hello,
For my wedding I am looking to get a morning suit and wanted to ask a few things. I am not very familiar with the intricacies so please forgive my ignorance!
For my wedding I am looking to get a morning suit and wanted to ask a few things. I am not very familiar with the intricacies so please forgive my ignorance!
- I am usually too tall for most RTW so will likely need to get at least the coat as MTM. I tried some RTW and while the coat will definitely need to be MTM there is hope I can get the trousers and waistcoat as RTW. How easy is it to mix RTW and MTM?
- How easy is it to mix clothing pieces from different houses? Could I get the coat from one place and the trousers from another?
- I am getting the suit done in London and have ready access to Savile Row, Jermyn Street, etc. I am hoping to get something for less than £2k but having phoned around this proves more challenging than anticipated (as most MtM coats already start at £1.3k+). I have identified the following brands which I might try to get from and would appreciate any advice on whether one is preferable over the other one. Their full 3-piece MTM comes out for all at around ~£2k
- Hackett
- Neal & Palmer
- Eve & Ravenscroft
- Favourbrook
- Others which I had checked out but are likely too expensive (unless MTM & RTW works): Gieves & Hawkes / Cad & The Dandy / Oliver Brown
- Any other recommendations are of course also welcome!
