    Everyone can 'hate' the suit... notice how every line is connected. Every pattern is matched, from collar to trouser, the craftsmanship to put the suit together is spectacular. You may not like it... but it is great.

    Not hating it ❤, but I can’t help noticing how much nicer the vintage one is. Ticket pocket, not having the dual brown stripes running down the middle, better shoulders… the craftsmanship is great on both, but one customer had way better taste. But one of them was Gregory Peck after all.

Always cast an eye when I passed Huntsman, but through regimental contacts, Dege and Skinner and Meyer and Mortimer were invariably my go-to tailors.

    Brilliant introduction to Huntsman. Do Huntsman help the client to "design" their suit or are they,the client,expected to know what will suit them ? This has been a problem for us elsewhere.

    Once you book a consult, the cutter will meet with you and determine your needs. lifestyle, and other factors. They take your measurements for a coat and then trousers. They have thousands of types of cloth to order from various British mills. Once your measurements are taken they will cut a pattern which is used to cut the cloth. If you are a first time customer it may require three fittings. The suit will require less once a pattern is cut. The cutter worries about a "design". Each tailor house on the row has their own style of cut. Huntsman will be different from Anderson and Sheppard and Dege and Skinner will be different from Gieves and Hawkes. Most customers if new to bespoke tailoring will get a solid navy blue and solid charcoal grey suit to start. Of course, it gets addictive. Once you have one suit, you need another. And then of course you'll need a tuxedo. And then a top coat. You can always try different tailors. There are many in London, including those on the row.
