S
pring may be the traditional time for a major clean-up and clear-out, but Autumn is an ideal time to tackle the wardrobe. This change of
season demands a different look – heavier cloths, warmer colours, more robust fabrics. Style remains the key word, but as Robin Dutt discovers in our Autumn trends feature, now is the time for fine wools, solid tweeds and windowpane checks. Of course, with vintage never far away from a stylist’s palette, please only pack away your Summer wardrobe. Fashion’s circle of life is continually revolving and your favourite warm- weather pieces are certain to return centre stage before too long. The secret of a good suit is great
tailoring and the perfect cloth. Some of the biggest names in this industry have been creating perfection for more than 300 years, so Savile Row Style Magazine goes behind the scenes at some of the great
fabric houses of Europe, such
as Holland & Sherry, Dormeuil and Johnsons of Elgin. The latter were founded in the reign of King George III, a time of tailcoats and silk knee breeches. Our tastes may have changed since then, but these houses continue to create innovative weaves to sate our most stylish dreams. Master tailor Angus Cundey MBE has been bringing these dreams to reality
for more than 50 years. The chairman of Henry Poole, has seen fashions come and go, but has never compromised quality for a fad. Taking a trip back though Henry Poole’s impressive archive may be a lesson in fashion history, but today’s world of bespoke tailoring has plenty to thank Angus for too. His vision and determination has put Savile Row in the perfect place to face the challenges of the next 50 years. A huge supporter of the Savile Row
Bespoke Association, set up by Angus Cundey and his fellow master tailors in 2004, was Marie Scott, the founder of this magazine. Sadly, Marie was killed in an accident just as our last issue was going to press, and so we pay tribute to her in this Autumn issue, looking back on a life devoted to fashion, tailoring and Savile Row. She would have been heartened by the successful development of the geographical indicator campaign, aiming to give Savile Row the same protective rights as champagne or Parma ham, and the continued popularity of the Row’s apprenticeship scheme. In fact, British tailoring goes from
strength to strength, recognised and appreciated the world over. Both Angus and Marie have played their part in this success story and we celebrate their contributions.
