How to make a Savile Row Suit (Part 2) - with Anderson & Sheppard | FASHION AS DESIGN

Follow the making of a bespoke three-piece suit in the style of Savile Row at the helm of one of the best British tailors, Anderson & Sheppard. - Three tailors receive their bundles of fabric and set about deciphering the cutter’s notes. Three weeks after a client’s measurements have been taken, his suit will be reading for a first fitting. The jacket will have been put together with a minimal number of seams using cotton ‘basting’ thread, and will be prime for a next round of adjustments.
FASHION AS DESIGN is a new course by MoMA that explores a selection of garments from around the world-ranging from Kente cloth to jeans to 3D-printed dresses. Each week will begin with a conversation between the course instructors-Paola Antonelli, Michelle Fisher, and Stephanie Kramer-that introduces the themes, items, and questions that we will explore.

ugh can me start a petition to get part one back! loved the first vid!

[@marker20]

Where the heck is Part 3??

[@programclu1]

9:22 'Are you keeping well?' 'Very well, and you?' *ignored*

[@mishimihendrix]

12:04 he chaved up for a moment and corrected himself haha

[@qomarqomarudin7307]

I felt never give enough appreciation for this kind of works .. until watching videos of Savile Row and BIJAN tailor .. my dad is a suit tailor making for living himself (he is now about 92 years old and still making suit with very old fashioned traditional ways .. he still use a manual SINGER machine .. yes, manually pedals without electricity involvement) and his bare hands .. love you dad .. you’re very rare an outstanding stubborn perfectionist .. thank you for growing me up !

[@NizFam]

The gentleman doing the sewing with his shirt half un-tucked is priceless.

[@dantebouwer]

I have watched 20 minutes of fantastic suit-making to not even see the final suit 😭

[@lightspeed72]

Great videos. Clean and well edited. The lack of music is also very artful, none of that electronic synthesizer over kill. This video is art itself too. Well done!

[@vickilindberg6336]

I love you he sound of his scissors. So sharp. So professional.

[@GrumpyYank26]

Love how the gentleman corrects himself ‘fittin’ to fitting. Not necessary but its just his humanity/personality/history showing. No shame in an accent! We all have them (except me) of course. Lovely.

[@Ursaminor31]

It’s wonderful to see and hear the voices of the team that collaborates rather then hidden away while the fancy boys downstairs take the credit,

[@MrHillens]

Part 1 is no longer available due to a privacy claim? What could that possibly be? I'll be sad if both these videos don't stay up forever.

[@walshy2116]

I just love that man in the green shirt. I can’t believe he’s been there for over 33 years as he doesn’t even look old enough! What a sweet charming man. They are all so nice and professional. My latest bucket list addition; go there! They really know their stuff amazing!

[@chuckbuckbobuck]

Help me! I COULD WATCH THIS ALL DAY. I am a hopeless suit addict.

[@pinkmagicali]

I know we can’t see the final but honestly you can see the finished suit will be stunning. I’m so jealous.

[@1955hoosier]

Art comes in so many forms. It is inspiring to see artists at work.

[@sackwhacker]

What's interesting is that this chap is working at Anderson & Sheppard now.

[@JoachimderZweite]

It is wonderful to see these artists at work. In my next life I will pay attention in school and have the luxuries and toys that my father never told me about. Being rich is more than money in ones pocket. This is elegance with no bling - a beautiful and subtle demonstration that clothes and culture make the man.

[@normansufrin207]

So relaxing watching these videos. It’s a very calm place to work

[@Spencerlestiadi]

So enjoyable and well-produced! Thank you for incorporating all the small sounds of drawing and cutting into these videos instead of putting background music. It really elevates the sensory experience and helps me dive into the process more deeply!

[@hornetgaming2888]

suits are awesome.. much respect to the tailors

[@walesu.k.2108]

I had no idea this all went into making a suit - my mind is blown - wow 😯

[@henryisosm]

I NEED PART THREE!

[@armandcatenaro1119]

my uncle worked as a cutter of men's suits, in NYC garment industry; used a "jig saw" on a pile of cloth 10" thick!! Never seen anything like it. Makes these scenes all the more interesting....

[@WsFood]

Hello, friend~ I enjoyed the video. Men look great in suits.

[@GMAMADANCE]

I loved it it clearly shows the inner workings of a bespoke tailor.

[@ReonKad3]

All these people seem so down to earth and kind. Absolutely lovely.

[@randyporter3491]

Having difficulty choosing between Anderson & Sheppard, Huntsman, and Henry Poole of London, I ultimately decided on a summer-weight pinstripe, from JC Penny of Dallas. With respect to the details, a nice gift set with clip-on tie, pre-folded pocket square on cardboard, and brass tie clip with horseshoe, should compliment well. 😏

[@TheBaldOne]

A well fitted suit must feel awesome

[@rlund651]

This was wonderful. I had no idea how much effort goes into making a custom suit from scratch.

[@10thMorales]

If they’re going to consolidate all the videos of this masterpiecing into a 4-hour film, I’m in.😊

[@missyrose2154]

I feel like I would be bored to tears being a tailor and would struggle to stay awake through a shift . This is exactly why I watch these videos when I can’t sleep. Still I do find it fascinating how they make sure the suit will fit the man perfectly . I especially like how much work and care goes in to making a suit vs perhaps mass production where the product is not going to look nearly as good. I admire people who care so much about their craft it just wouldn’t be for me 🤷‍♀️

[@Millennial_Mike]

I'm blown away by the skill level here.

[@MyuNeptune]

Will we get part 3? I really enjoy watching those videos (i love process of sewing clothes).

[@MahlenMorris]

I mean, you want to see how it turns out, right?

[@Mr-R.R.]

yeah, probably the most rewarding part

[@danmack3173]

Truth be told I like how it looks with the marker stitching

[@5starcomment]

i knew there'd be no part 3...I bloody knew it...

[@CrimFerret]

It's pretty cool to see how these are made. It's a collaborative bit of art. It's also something that can't be automated (at least as far as customizing for an individual).

[@beatrizmartinez7729]

Absolutely beautiful, so what about Part 3? The sound of the scissors cutting the cloth, I loved it.

[@lowesonia8551]

The eye . wonderful talented people Love to see a well dress man in a Savile Row Hand made suit.

[@facuarroyo3249]

In love with this whole enviroment 😍😍😍

[@raywalteroutdoors]

Today I added my first Savile Row to my now 52 suit collection which includes Zegna, Canali, Hugo Boss, Corneliani, Loro Piana, Polo Ralph Lauren, Armani Collezioni and so on. Cost was $2.50 gently used 2nd hand. He didn't even break it in so I guess I'll have to do it for him.

[@johnduffy8532]

I sure hope these craftspersons, from the tailors to the cutters, are paid well for their art.

[@paulrice1301]

Back in the 80's I went out with a girl that worked at Anderson and Sheppard, it looks a bit brighter in the workshop now. She made Me a blazer for My 21st.

[@stevenbiars6212]

I've really enjoyed watching this.

[@pancakegaming6824]

That's a long 4 weeks....pt3 please. Excellent to see the internal workings of a great trade.

[@jcollins1305]

Really enjoyable watching these talented craftspeople at work. Carry on! One of the things I love about England, the traditions.

[@incyphe]

Great video!

[@moboutmen]

Truly an art form.

[@gabba7954]

Omg I need a part 3!!!!

[@ranchrods1]

the lady with the blond hair is stunning !!!!!

[@chrispeng5502]

Now I made up my mind to save for a bespoke suit.

[@luxurycarkey7207]

Just to spend one day there watching these magnificent taylors is a treasure i use to work for botany 500 making men coats these guys are amazing...

[@Freakymonify]

4 weeks to next fitting?! Jeez, I don't think I could wait that long, I'd die of excitement on the way.

[@janeb1155]

Where's part three?! I loved this.

[@hafsafossie7074]

This is quality at work this tailor take there work seriously. That’s why I love tailored clothes. I’m working hard to achieve this quality of sewing not throw together trash clothes

[@jameshowitt2463]

They are artists aren't they? A bespoke suit is a work of art and the price is reflective of that.

[@kameliangauamo6328]

It's nice to see men working in a place where normally you'd see women. Its showing that men and women can do the same jobs with the same results

[@rosez6737]

Tailoring has always been a more male orientated job lol, only seamstresses are usually female

[@hughjanus501]

I'm on a "Savile Row" marathon.

[@ruzzelladrian907]

Beautiful 😍

[@Ukedc259]

Absolutely fascinating

[@RiddleWhisperer]

Awsome craftsmanship.

[@adamcain4603]

A true art form

[@metalmatt402]

Simply phenomenal!

[@DAYBROK3]

To all who are asking for part 3, I took the course I don’t remember a part 3. It was to show you how to do a mans suit.

[@jazzman1626]

The last time I was measured for a suit was around 1974 in John Colliers (the window to watch 😁). It was only a made to measure, not bespoke. I think now it would look hideous. It was a three piece brown pin striped suit with flared trousers. I’d saved up for it because my mother wouldn’t let me pay up one from her catalogue.

[@andrewvitale2700]

What talent!

[@blankblank1949]

I like when he's sewing he got that mouth movements that often you sees on grandmothers

[@mrz_88]

Beautiful suit

[@themorticians]

wow these were so great!

[@Menstouch]

Amazing video 👌

[@effay83]

amazing craftsmanship

[@danishpastry2885]

Beginning to understand why Tiny bought this business & appreciate what Anda & the whole team have done.

[@geraldhannibal7654]

Fascinating.

[@My_Work_Here_is_Done..]

Can’t believe we didn’t get to see the next stage and finish!

[@alrivas1477]

Can’t believe how much I enjoyed this but where is part 3 ?

[@justtyngascon6789]

Still no part 3 its been over a year, i guess they gave up on this series.

[@christopherscarpino8994]

Calming and mesmerizing. Was there ever a "Part 3" to this series?

[@wulliesmith3107]

We use chalk that's been soaked in oil overnight, that way you don't need to redo all the lines again and the chalk lines will fade over time, saves a bit of work

[@GrumpyYank26]

I wonder that they dont have more suitable seating to do their work. Do their backs become tired? I wonder what changes they would want if asked. Remarkable process. Patience, experience, skill. Hats off.

[@abshalomyisrael9475]

PERFECTO!

[@taniasmith619]

Amazing detailed work. Beautiful and hard working team.

[@steventhornton9487]

There suits really are great best suit I have ever had made for me.

[@arikthompson5495]

[@naeemmather1850]

[@heymarey150]

[@grrayfox2300]

Bucket list

[@TC-vx9yv]

Great videos, part 3 ?

[@gavinfoster8988]

suits you sir !!

[@beautifulmotivationvideos]

Thank-you for not making this documentary and, then, deciding it needs EDM elevator music at a higher volume than everyone placed over the whole film. I get what bespoke is now - it's having something constructed in the proper way.
