Fresh from the tailor!!
Just to touch a little bit more on the art of Bespoke tailoring, here goes a video made by Turnbull & Asser - one of those companies that have been on London's Saville Row for centuries. Basically Bespoke means to "be spoken for" in this particular instance the word originated from gentleman reserving certain types of cloth for their shirts, suits and ties to be made out of. Once spoken for your measurements are taken and they create a "pattern" meaning a specifically measured garment be it shirt or suit to your exact specifications. There is nothing more proper in the world then to have a suit made specifically for you out of the finest cloth money can by. Check the video for a little more insight into the world of Bespoke tailoring.
