It is sad that only two of the old tailors are still family-owned, my family's Savile Row tailoring business was sold off in the early 1980s, and I was only young at the time. As a tailor trained in civilian attire, I am always in awe of military tailoring, especially as you say the exquisite hand braiding. Beautiful work. Lovely walk-through, Tom. Thanks.

The plum suit in the thumbnail is fantastic.

Brilliant video, and presentation Tom.

All about quality and great British customer service and tradition.Perfect.

Please add more history and what they are known for with regard to the consumer, house style, do you own anything from them, and notable clients. Thanks

Thank you for this video. I had the pleasure of visiting Dege & Skinner last week and purchased two shirts. While it was my first visit to them or any other Saville Row shop, I felt very welcomed. And the quality and feel of their shirts astound me. I now cannot imagine wearing anything else for business wear. Might a bespoke shirt or suit be in the offing next time?

I've been waiting for a video like this, that showcases the styles and cuts of these London Tailors. Cheers.

Dege (pre amalgamation) built my uniforms in 1985, when Sandhurst cadets still had a healthy uniform grant. I ended up giving them to a London theatre as they were still as good as new 30 years later, but an amalgamation and labour government later were, by then, obsolete.

You look great in that beautiful burgundy suit.
-
I can only ever dream of owning anything from Savile Row. Nevertheless I still try my best to dress like a gentlemen. Consequently, this series really gives an excellent insight into the code and details required to dress correctly.
-
As ever Tom, a great video! Love the little slip of the tongue at the end😆
-
These videos are great. I hope you get to visit the whole Row Tom.

Tom is the epitome of "chap." I still don't believe he didn't serve. He would have fit fantastically in the Officers' Messes of regiments like the KRH.
