Savile Row is the home of hand tailoring. This short street is home to many of the world’s finest tailoring houses, a street where for over 200 years royals, rock stars, and giants of the business and political worlds have come to have their clothes cut, sewn and fitted.

Patrick Grant, co-owner of Savile Row tailors Norton & Sons, describes the long-standing traditions of craftsmanship that are maintained in the workrooms of this quiet corner of London’s Mayfair – a fascinating and uniquely storied world. He celebrates the extraordinary ecosystem, from the British weavers and cloth houses to the trimmings merchants, that allows Savile Row to flourish.

Grant shines a light on the captivating story of Savile Row, the painstaking processes required to create a bespoke garment, and the story of his personal experiences on this most famous thoroughfare.

This book details, for the first time, the complete tailoring methods of several of Savile Row’s finest sewing tailors, providing a detailed step-by-step manual on how to hand-make a pair of trousers, waistcoat, and coat in the Savile Row style, and a shirt in the style of one of Jermyn Street’s finest shirt makers. Richly illustrated, this book gives an insight into a highly discreet and rarefied world of craftsmanship.

What People Say

"Patrick Grant, der dort seine Schneiderei Norten and Sons führt, beschreibt in The Savile Row Suit die Traditionen der Handwerkskunst, wie die besten Schneider arbeiten und erklärt in einer detaillierten Schritt-für-Schritt-Anleitung, wie man eine Hose, eine Weste und einen Mantel sowie ein Hemd im Stil der Savile Row von Hand anfertigt."

Welt am Sonntag

"It will follow another book he had published last week called The Savile Row Suit, which invites readers into the inner sanctum of Savile Row and unveils the secrets of bespoke tailoring. It includes a meticulously detailed and illustrated step-by-step ‘how to’ guide for the first time, as well as his own experiences of working on Savile Row."
