Bespoke Tailors Yorkshire

Bespoke Tailors Yorkshire

As a bespoke tailors in Yorkshire, I have just got an apprentice that has come over from Sweden to work with me in my workroom for a couple of months before he returns back to college in Sweden.

It turns out that Olle is also a bit of a dab hand with his camera. So, he took a few pictures of me whilst I was sewing my bespoke coats.

The picture he has taken below shows me hand tacking the breast welt pocket before the canvas is inserted.

This picture shows me tacking the out breast welt on a clients bespoke coat.

Bespoke suits

There’s very few bespoke tailors, Yorkshire, that will even canvas your garment. Let alone hand baste the canvas onto the cloth. Every single one of my bespoke canvasses are made by hand. I only use real horse hair canvas and to keep permanent shape into the coat chest.

This shows me hand basting the canvas onto one side of the coat fronts.

The last picture is a close up shot of my bunch of Ffyfes basting the canvas onto the coat front. All in all, I think these are pretty decent pictures Olle has taken representing the craft of bespoke tailoring at its best.

All the pictures are of a clients bespoke jacket I have been working on for the past couple of weeks. My client has had two fittings with this suit, a skeleton baste and a forward baste. This is the default way I operate with all clients, unlike most bespoke tailors, Yorkshire. My client is tall, slim, has very square shoulders combined with a slightly round back. However, this cloth and the cut I have gave him, slim, fitted with a clean chest and little back drape suits him perfectly and both he and I are delighted with the quality of the fit. It fits him immaculately, and I mean IMMACULATELY !

It is always really difficult for me to get ‘doing’ pictures of myself working, so I really do appreciate it when someone with a bit of nouse starts taking a few pictures of me. Plus, I like to see my bald head….ahem, ok well maybe not.
