Kurzbeschreibung
A fully illustrated history of bespoke tailoring—the custom-made men’s clothing that made a small London street a globally known brand to generations of sartorial connoisseurs. Savile Row is renowned for fine custom tailoring—"bespoke" in its own parlance. The term originated when cloth for a suit was said to "be spoken for" by customers who have included generations of stylish and tasteful men, from rakes to royals. Bespoke is the epitome of male sartorial style, exquisite quality, and craftsmanship, and has been worn by a veritable who’s who of famous and important men: Winston Churchill, Cary Grant, Russell Crowe, David Beckham, and countless world leaders. Bespoke charts Savile Row’s contribution to fashion and culture chronologically and features twenty-six profiles of today’s master tailors from historic firms such as Gieves & Hawkes and Henry Poole to more recent ones like Nutters and Ozwald Boateng, who was the first Savile Row tailor to stage a catwalk show in Paris.

A coffee table book with meat as well as sheen
14. Februar 2011
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This is a coffee table book by definition. The thing is huge; opening it makes me feel like a Mediaeval scholar-monk ready to work on his calligraphy. But it's also full of information. Glossy pictures and in-depth information, good photography and good journalism walking hand in hand... I like it. The book offers a succinct introduction to Savile Row if that's what you're after, but if you're after just looking for big glossy pictures of well-crafted suits, this book offers quite a few yummy photographs of the best bespoke has to offer for you to drool over.
Only caveat? The author, like every other effort to delve into the world of Savile Row, was too selective. Why did he choose the particular tailors that he showcases in the book and not others? I found no reasoning in the book for this. Before buying it, know that, while it is a great "eye candy" book and also full of accurate information (a rare and good thing), it's by no means the definitive guide to Savile Row. For that, I will point you to Savile Row Story: An Illustrated History -- lots of meat, less sheen, although it does contain some very interesting photographs. However, it is rather outdated, as it was released in the 1980s. Buy them both and you'll have a solid Savile Row library!
In summary, this is a book any tailoring enthusiast will enjoy, but my only complaint is that when I pay a steep price for a book I always expect a certain "Bible" aspect, a sense that I will need not buy another book on the subject since this will last a lifetime. Rather like the feeling of walking away from a tailor with a bespoke suit....

Great insight into Savile Row
8. Dezember 2010
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
When talking about tailoring as an art form it must be illustrated. This book does a wonderful job at taking the reader to the row and allows them to experience its past, present and shows incite into the future. If you enjoy the finer things in life and really appreciate the mastery that constructs the perfect suit this book is for you!
