Noll Uloth joint owner of Cordings of Piccadilly (along with Eric Clapton) discusses what to wear for the Tweed Run with the head Marshall Simon, along with showing him other British fashion pieces that Cordings are famous for.
The quality of the Tweed that they use is absolutely superb, and the tailoring service that they provide is unbelievable. A big 👍 and a thank you to Cordings. Well worth a visit.
I bought a navy linen suit, cut by Cordings, second-hand in Oxfam, Highgate, in 1996. It cost me £40 (quite a lot for a charity shop suit back then) but lasted me about five years until the trousers split, rather dramatically, when I was at a conference. I then wore the jacket with khaki trousers for a further three years.
I doubt it because there was no mention of navy suits for war.....maybe they got red in the face after the video following an onslaught of sandwich breaths
Once we establish whether or not this mans fitting was properly established, we can establish whether or not this particular establishment is worth visiting to buy our navy suits for war.
It would be rude to say this is from a bygone era. Where every Briton had a good quality tailored suit, that was of such quality that it could be passed down from generation to generation! I recall back in 1982 when I inherited my father's Harris Tweed jacket and shirts thank goodness I was not obese back then. Interestingly now have reached 60+ I am waking upto the fact that I have almost a burning desire for Tweed, a hard wearing material that truly stands the test of time. I am grateful that bespoke tailors such as Cordings as still exist!
Hi, just to let you know that your website is proving difficult. The pop up advertising the email sub won't let me get past it to browse your shop, despite me joining the mailing list and trying to access the shop from the email, as well as from normal links to the site. It's driving me to look elsewhere for a Tweed jacket, and that upsets me somewhat.
I went there. I want all the colours of trousers. also maybe in addition to hemming the trousers to the correct length, maybe it would be possible to slim down the width of the trousers as well.
Columbo in Europe would have that cool rain coat on, constable Columbo, he smokes a pipe and drives an old London cab.and wares a rumpled LE Lewin suite. . We have established this!
the little things in life. you know at the top of maslovs hierarchy. that is where the brits have developed things. the style has been refined to a high degree.
Hello , by the way the reason that the last button on a waistcoat it's kept unbuttoned is due to King Edward VII because of his excess belly fat , so i do not if it's correct to keep it like that.
Wrong. It is done to relieve pressure on the bottom button when seated. The King Edward myth is yet another untrue moronic urban legend that had been perpetuated for decades by fools like you and many other such fools. :-)
@@ivanboesky1520 hey relax, dont be a tailoring snob and shout down people just because you think you know something they don't) its not nice or classy. btw its not always done as sometimes bespoke tailors cut a waistcoat to fasten all the buttons, although most of the time and in almost all RTW the waistcoat is cut in a way that the lower button is meant to be unfastened.
many theories, main one is that Bertie who was so useless he couldn't even do the non job of being Englands King left his lower button undone and so society copied. its just a fashion of the past really which is redundant as most men even in a suit don't wear a waistcoat anymore which makes sense as with central heating you'd feel hot most of the time. sometimes waistcoats are cut to fasten all buttons in niche bespoke so its not a completely hard and fast rule.
Why would anybody wear a dress coat while shooting? (All of the coats shown in the video are dress coats.) A proper hunting coat would work much, much better.
The problem with the english garnements is that whatever they do is too functional.... nothing is pure art. Now, Don't tell me the britts know what Sprezzatura is...
