[@yuri911qq]

I used to divide the Savile Row Houses into 4 different categories, if you are going on a horse ride, you pick Huntsman or Richard Anderson because of their equestrian background; if you are going on a military parade, you pick Dege or Gieves for their military heritage; if you are going to the ballroom, the freedom of movement from the Anderson & Sheppard drape cut will provide the maximum elegance, and for you Mr Jacomet, I guess you like to make a s̶t̶a̶t̶e̶m̶e̶n̶t̶ scene, by English standard of cause, in your Armors from the Nutters. the blazer looks great by the way

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

That's a funny way to describe the Row. I would add Henry Poole for formal events. Cheers! Hugo

[@thomaslutro5560]

If I may suggest a topic for a future Sartorial talks video: Ties, and more specifically their construction, and even how they are described. For example googling seven fold ties, you will find several different constructions are given that description. Some are constructed so there are seven folds or creases, others so there seven layers of fabric. Some are tipped, some lined, some are folded so the inner layers come to the middle of the tie, others so the inner layers go all the way to the opposite side, and on and on. All of this of course makes them behave differently. How they drape, how they tie, some giving fairly large knots with a four in hand, others almost begging for more elaborate knots. Some background and history would also appeal to this nerd, and hopefully others.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Great picks, Hugo! Would have bet half of my tie collection, that you picked at least one tailor of the sexton pedigree. ;) If I could choose one bespoke piece to be made for me on savile row, it would certainly be an overcoat by Mr Morgan, preferably double-breasted. His garments are beyond dashing! Greetings from Germany!

Hugely entertaining and informative video , I am and have been for many decades , absolutely fascinated by the art of tailoring, Hugo obviously is not only fascinated but also extremely well informed and has a huge knowledge of the subject . I can no longer afford bespoke but i have several suits made for me in the sixties and seventies all of which are still in excellent condition and , remarkably still fit me , spurred on by Hugo I am of a mind to have one last bespoke garment made , I shall scrape the cash together and maybe visit one of the tailors he endorses.

You're so right about jackets getting shorter and shorter. I'm 6'4" and I don't like it. If a jacket doesn't cover my backside - forget it.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

[@chuckbuckbobuck]

Couldn't agree with more. A jacket proper length I down to the bottom of the fly in other words covers the top third of the trousers. Anything shorter is ludicrous!

[@alexnw6050]

Very cool to see you highlight some of your preferred tailors. One day I will be able to afford an Edward Sexton, Joe Morgan (probably my favorite style), or Michael Brown suit...I feel their suits provide a good classic English style with just enough flair. On the subject of countries you can look at, perhaps it may be worth thinking about "The Spanish Gentleman". Having a Camiseria Burgos shirt (and another on the way), and the privilege to meet Ramon Cuberta, there may be something there. They seem to take be somewhere between the English and the Italian (at least to my eye). Regardless, I know anything you decide to write next will be worth reading.

[@AsterEdu]

Hugo, sir the suit you are wearing is structured very crisp and is extremely elegant. ❣️

[@scottygdaman]

Might be interesting to do a world view of tailors. Sure British French Italian tailor's are the pinnacle but what are others doing .. German..south American.. Scandinavian country's.. Japan.. Hong Kong i had a few clothes made for me in Hong Kong fabulous fit durable materials. Shipped them home never saw them again. Now to compare to the well established houses may not be fair but I'm sure there are great tailors in most areas. Thank you for the videos you have opened my eyes to the true value of quality clothing . Happy new Year

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Dear Scott, we've been visiting tailors around the world, and in the now famous "tailors dinner" we organised in December in Rome, 14 countries were represented. We wrote many articles on tailors outside the famous trilogy England/Italy/France on our blog Parisian Gentleman (which will soon be relaunched in a new and redesigned version).

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

@@jasonarday4014 Dear Jason, I used to be a Huntsman fan (with iconic cutters like Colin Hammick and fantastic alumni like Richard Anderson or Pat Morgan) but more recently I believe the company lost its way (and part of its soul) with Roubi L'Roubi as an "artistic director" (I have nothing against him but he was a women's gowns designer, not a tailor). And when the fantastic black gentleman who was for me the face of Huntsman (at the front desk) was fired, I was done. Cheers, Hugo

[@staceychow9960]

Excellent video Hugo! BTW, there are four of your six that are "cut from the same cloth" or may have Tommy Nutter influences. Davide Taub worked for Sexton 2008-2010 before heading off to Maurice Sedwell and then G&H. Certainly, his more stylized architectural suits with roped shoulder and pagoda shoulders. Also, Michael Browne has also tried to lighten up the padding and construction as with Davide while still having the structured armour look of Sexton/C&M.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

You are perfectly right Stacey, Taub and Browne have both managed to "lighten" the guts of their suits while still looking very structured. Cheers, Hugo

[@staceychow9960]

Just wondering Hugo, you mention that you would love to have a suit made by Joe Morgan among the six you mention. Is there a particular reason you would choose Joe, particularly since stylistically, it has the same DNA as Sexton, Browne, and to a certain extent Taub. Thanks.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

@@staceychow9960 Dear Stacey, actually I would love to have a suit by all of them ! I said Joe because I like the man (he's really an interesting personality) and probably by pure enthusiasm (none of my speeches are written, barely a few notes for dates and quotes).

Where can I join in this movement of women wearing tailored clothes? How it works? I have to show up on social media wearing in certain way or it is what it is: wearing and meeting with people? In Poland we have big movement of ladies in dresses, sometimes modest, sometimes retro, sometimes parisian chic. They have in many cases partners involved in classic male tailoring movement. But in my relationship I am the one involved in classic wear linked often with masculinity. I'm not so sure there is my place. If only I would find girls like me - it would be great!

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Hi MP, You might have noticed many women in Hollywood are now wearing suits (this will likely drive the general population of women to try the same). Also, there is a trend of men's suit makers now making for women, e.g., Suitsupply and others. So...women wearing suits is alive and well--and growing at the moment. Cheers! ~Sonya

Mr. Jacomet, surely you can do "The British Gentleman" as your books contain many aspects of lifestyle, style, shoes, behaviour, history and accessories. Savile Row by Mr. James Sherwood, definitely a masterpiece, covers the tailoring aspect only. You can also cover a unique aspect of nightwear and dressing gowns in British men's style as well. Please do not deprive us of your work. You will not be competing with other books but you will be bring your flavour to the subject. I possess two of your books and on the waiting list for the third.

As a woman I love Sonja’s tailored clothes also love the shoes she wears. I have a large foot a size 12 US. I have been looking for a pair of ladies spectator shoes. Hugo you and Sonja do a wonderful job with sharing your knowledge about clothing and enjoy watching your videos

I’ll be starting a suit with HP&C later this year when they visit Los Angeles. Very excited. This is a great run-through. Thank you.

[@chuckbuckbobuck]

Daniel is a great tailor at Poole.. He will make you a great suit.

[@the.dirty.pigeon]

@@chuckbuckbobuck Great to hear. I haven’t met him yet but I’m looking forward to it.

[@chuckbuckbobuck]

@@the.dirty.pigeon I believe they are here in LA this weekend. I passed on seeing them this time as they have finished my one suit and a pair of trousers and I reserved fabric for them to make me another suit next year. Chestnut Plaid three piece suit with a double breasted waistcoat ( vest). Word of advice, go with fabric from either Holland & Sherry, Scabal or Huddleston. Really top end. And, unless you are having this suit made for a wedding or a funeral, don't order a black suit. Expand your horizons, go with a bold plaid or striking Venetian stripe suit. In short, have them make you a suit that no one else has. That's how I roll.

[@the.dirty.pigeon]

@@chuckbuckbobuckNice. My first fitting is next month when they return to LA. This suit will be far from unique-more of a standard navy twill sort of thing-but I’ll get a lot of use out of it.

[@chuckbuckbobuck]

I will be meeting with them then as well the suit they made for me came out great jacked wise-fit perfect. Trousers not so good so I am taking them back to fix them. Not sure what happened as we had four fittings. They send me some swatches last year and if they the fabric is still available I will commission another suit from them.

Hahaha very funny. It's my French accent ! Hugo

[@ianarn]

You are actually Hugo more clearly spoken in English than many of the people I live around here in South East England. Very nice Jacket you’re wearing btw! I’m guessing Cifonelli!

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Good guess Ian ! Many thanks for your encouragements, Hugo

[@mertcandarli]

I am a simple man, I see new Sartorial Talks video, I click to watch 👍

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Thank you so much sir. Hugo

[@sheen675]

Great episode. As always. I do have book from James Sherwood - Savile Row and it is amazing piece of art.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

James is a great writer (and a good friend). Hugo

[@rickywhitehands]

I very much like the shoulders on your jacket. Very nice. Thank you.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Thank you Richard. It's a Cifonelli bespoke blazer with the famous Cifonelli shoulder. Cheers, Hugo

That Burnt Orange pocketsquare!!!!! I'm on the hunt for one, and no one will know about my secret sartorial weapon.... Just kidding, I'd shout about SARTORIAL TALKS from the rooftops, if gentlemanly conduct allowed for it.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Haha you're very kind. This pocket square is by Simonnot Godard. We'll make sure he produces another batch of this rust one for us. Stay tuned! Hugo

[@matthewowen4037]

Yes, thanks you!

[@RezensionaerDe]

Love the video, thanks Hugo for the inspiration and information! Edward Sexton is the dream tailor for my wedding suit someday. Such a pity (british) bespoke suits are so expensive. ;-)

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Thank you Benjamin and see you soon ! Hugo

[@chuckbuckbobuck]

But worth every cent!

[@zryvr]

Hey Hugo, I know he is not British BUT what do you think of Tom Ford? I understand he has a much less storied background as all the others you have mentioned, but he is very influenced by the tradition and elegance of Savile Row even though his suits are made by Ermenegildo Zegna. Would love to hear your take on it. Cheers!

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

Ford is a very gifted designer who understands tailoring. That's one of his biggest strength. Hugo

David Taub also worked for Edward Sexton for a few years.

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

I know Davide always says Edward is one of his main inspirations, but I didn't know he worked there. Cheers, Hugo

[@abhisunkara]

So happy my tailors (Thom Sweeney) are in the list :)

[@SARTORIALTALKS]

They deserve it, no discussion. Cheers, Hugo
