and so henry herbert tailors and our savile row by scooter service was born - using a custom built fleet of vespa scooters, using full trained tailors, to meet customers around the clock. and the result? savile row and every other tailoring firm that could jump on the band wagon tried their hardest to squeeze out every bad word from the oxford dictionary to wish us a doom! but ten years later, we are still here and still working hard for our customers .
i created henry herbert tailors to change the way bespoke tailoring is delivered. why, i thought, should the customer have to go to the tailor during unhelpful hours (normally monday - friday, 9am - 5pm), when the tailor could and should be prepared to go to the customer - any day, any time and any place .
the big difference between charlie and other schmutter - merchants is that you don' t have to slog back and forth to savile row or soho to be kitted out in one of his bespoke henry herbert suits .

bespoke morning suits and wedding morning suits are still a popular wedding suit choice. two piece or three piece, our bespoke morning suits are made from the finest british fabrics. henry herbert' s morning suits are handmade in england and are perfectly fitting, for the perfect wedding day .
was fortunate enough to buy a henry herbert morning suit for a very good friend' s wedding recently. it was a great experience from the initial measuring, cloth choice, fitting and then final delivery. the only disappointment is not having more frequent occasions on which to wear it !
henry herbert takes 8 - 10 weeks to make his bespoke suits and overcoats and 3 - 4 weeks for his tailored shirts, with a number of fittings during this period. however, if you need your bespoke shirts or bespoke suits in a hurry, you may want to try our express service .
i was new to the bespoke tailoring world and did some extensive research. i settled on henry herbert to make me two suits. i decided on a navy and charcoal grey, we had a couple of fittings and several weeks later the suits have come back: the finishing is superb. 10 / 10 .
i needed some tailored shirts for my wedding but had left it right to the last minute…. these guys did an amazing job with a super fast turn around, and really great quality shirts. they really went out of their way to sort me out. thanks henry herbert for saving my bacon! very happy .
purchased a bespoke navy blazer, charlie and will both delivered a blazer i will undoubtedly cherish for many years. cannot find a fault with the service, nothing but professionalism and class from start to finish. much better than your average savile row
big name
tailors at a fraction of the price .
i have never left a review before, but i am leaving this because without doubt they went beyond what all other tailors were prepared to do and the end result is my wedding suit: something i will cherish forever. superb cloth - it feels like silk with a service and suit that many other should aspire to .
i had a wedding suit made a few years ago with henry herbert and am still delighted with it. my wife then recently treated me to 4 shirts as a birthday present, and i was just as impressed this time around. charlie came to me to measure me up, and run through the options for material, collar type etc. and four weeks later they arrived via courier. the quality and fit are both exceptional - i will definitely be back next time i feel like treating myself .

a common question i am often asked is “ where were you trained? ” our tailors have a rich history of tailoring. i myself, apart from being a fully qualified motorcyclist, am also a tailor too. at first i learnt from others – watching them at work and involving myself. i have since cemented this, learning jacket making at morley college (london), trouser & waistcoat making at central st martin’s and sewing skills at city of westminster college, where i obtained my city & guilds qualifications .
a common question i am often asked is
where were you trained ?
our tailors have a rich history of tailoring. i myself, apart from being a fully qualified motorcyclist, am also a tailor too. at first i learnt from others - watching them at work and involving myself. i have since cemented this, learning jacket making at morley college (london), trouser & waistcoat making at central st martin' s and sewing skills at city of westminster college, where i obtained my city & guilds qualifications .
for every single customer that comes to see us, we always encourage them to speak to as many tailors as possible – to get a feel of their workmanship and their service. the two are just as important as each other. it is an extremely opinionated business, with a competitor always the first to offer his thoughts on what might not be wright with another firm’s workmanship. but at the end of the day, the biggest test should be for the customer to ask himself, “does this suit make me feel good? ”. if so, then the tailor has done his job .
and twice this week, i heard on the radio and on a blog, two savile row tailors still rubbishing our idea – how on earth could customers enjoy the same experience away from the workshops and expensive shops. remarkably, both of them, in the same breath, were advertising their services for customers they will be seeing abroad – away form their shops. it is the service and the product that matters, not the extortionate rents that have to be paid and which therefore find their way in to expensive suits. do you participate in initiatives for making the men' s suit more attractive to men? how do you think the men' s suit industry can unite in order to increase the demand for men' s suits as a whole ?
a couple of weeks back i bagged an invite to the orange british academy film awards â a black tie event. iâd never worn a tuxedo before but managed to borrow one from a mate at the last minute .
the jacket sleeves were too long, i had clown trousers and my shirt clearly wasnât designed for a bow tie .
this might have gone unnoticed at most events but not when you find yourself flanking hollywood star claire danes on a red carpet in front of thousands. time to invest in a proper suit .
being a mod revivalist at heart iâve always been fascinated by the fashion and in particular a bespoke three - piece, but never ventured further than a fishtail parka, fred perry polo shirt and trusty pair of clarks originals .
if you want something to add value and stature to who you are, a bespoke suit is a great investment because itâs going to last you a long time. it doesnât have to be loud, just something subtle that fits, â she explains .
âwe can add whatever little touches you want too. for example, we have one client who requests a special pocket to fit his cigar, â she says. âthe attention you get on savile row guarantees you will notice the difference and so will other people. iâve always believed you can achieve a lot in a well - cut suit. â
like any other fashion, suits have seasons and itâs more than just âlight or darkâ. âthere are all - year - round cloths and there are seasonal cloths. clients are currently looking at winter for spring, and our ready - to - wear range is a great indicator of influences for the season, â says sargent. âdouble - breasted is very fashionable again in suits and slightly longer overcoats. you should be looking for something classical but with a bit of a twist, which is achievable with accessories and shirts. âgreys seem hugely popular right now. weâve had a lot of clients come in requesting that colour. theyâve been influenced by the show mad men (pictured right) â muted suits with loud ties and shirts. â
this all sounds lovely but incredibly expensive and, unfortunately, we canât all shop in mayfair and be able to pick up the bill. now iâm not saying venture down the old kent road for your âwhistle and fluteâ but surely thereâs a compromise ?
âmade - to - measure is great if youâre on a budget; youâll get cloth of brilliant quality, weâll make you a suit unique to your measurements, even if the process isnât as thorough as bespoke. a lot of clients want suits they can travel in so will go with made - to - measure or ready - to - wear and leave bespoke for special occasions .
âif youâve got the great figure and your budget isnât in this realm, buying off the peg is absolutely fine, â says sargent. âbut if youâre looking for a long - term investment, bespoke is a great step. â
you could always cheat: the savile row company has a naughty little outlet store on ebay with suits, shirts and ties all at 70 per cent off urltoken just donât tell kathryn .
ready - to - wear suits from £495; made - to - measure from £795; hand - made bespoke from £3, 500. urltoken
all suits and shirts are cut in london then stitched in yorkshire. the standard service takes five to six weeks and the express service two to three weeks .
* the trench coat. smart, simple and a staple garment for most menâs wardrobes. a little boring in design maybe? not any more. topmanâs trench coat project sees celebrated designers mihara yasuhiro, tim soar, bblessing and alister mackie reinterpret the classic piece, each bringing their own personality to it. yasuhiro has produced an olive green pakamac with a zip on the back to increase the volume of the coat, while new york - based bblessing has added a poem running throughout the lining of its coat. topmanâs own contribution to the project is this geometric pattern with buttoned funnel neck (pictured right) .
charlie collingwood has the impeccable manners, deft hands and immaculate dress sense you expect from a top london tailor .
charlie will measure, fit and deliver the suit at your convenience and at your home and office, and he can do this because he runs his business from the back of a scooter .
it' s a novel, first - of - its kind service ,
explains collingwood, 30 .
it' s flexible and convenient for my customers, and because i don' t have the expense of central london retail premises, i can keep costs down .
his handmade suits -
made in england with british materials
- start from a competitive £495, overcoats from £895 .
what' s more, his fleet of four branded scooters - not to mention the fact that he always wears one of his own, dapper suits in the saddle - is an excellent advert for the business .
collingwood, along with a host of london businesses including handymen, estate agents and the berkeley hotel' s patisserie service, has realised that the scooter offers the ultimate in speed, economy and efficiency. two wheels good, four wheels bad .
the trailblazer for this trend was
patrician electrician
lord (james) irwin, the son of the earl of halifax. irwin set up the handy squad with two odd - job men and two 125cc honda bikes and now has a fleet of 20 .
i wanted to run my own business ,
says the 32 - year - old former investment banker ,
and i thought there was a niche market for odd jobs that could be done by a single handyman on a bike carrying a small tool kit and [ decorating ] materials .
the bikes have now been modified to carry a small stepladder, too .
it' s all about
maximising utilisation
. as irwin points out, scooters are exempt from the congestion charge and most parking fees, while their speed and mobility means the handy squad can be quicker to arrive than most emergency - response plumbers and electricians .
he claims that
the aa followed our lead
, introducing scooters for mechanics a couple of years later .
indeed, the model is so successful that one of irwin' s former employees, dennis baltha, has set up on his own as west london' s
scooter handyman
.
over in camden, estate agent london residential has invested in three electrip electric scooters .
when we opened the camden office last year we rebranded as a green company, the first carbon - neutral estate agent ,
says lettings manager chris welch .
the bikes are ideal for meeting landlords or clients at flats, although welsh concedes they
are better in the summer months
and aren' t powerful enough to carry more than one person .
these are not problems faced by the berkeley hotel, which delivers its signature, fashion - inspired prêt - à - portea (sic) cakes to its discerning sw1 neighbours on a branded pink - and - pistachio vespa: demand goes up in the festive season .
the only way to deliver christian louboutin high - heeled biscuits and the latest burberry trenchcoat cakes is aboard a style icon ,
says general manager klaus kabelitz .
and where london leads, the rest of the world follows. if charlie collingwood' s plans come off, at least .

menswear has always been at the forefront of evolving trends and changes in fashion. from the wide lapels on suits in the 1970’s, to the very slim cut one button jackets of the 1990’s, men have always been ready to adapt to new changes in styles. and i would say the modern gentleman has carried on this tradition – today we see more gentlemen, of all ages, choosing waistcoats to go with their suits, choosing brighter colours and patterns and some even as being as risqu? as choosing different cuts altogether – from double breasted suits to nehru jackets .
the most important rule for black - tie is for gentleman to dress in whichever way makes him feel good. whether it be double breasted, single - breasted, white jackets, midnight navy jackets, different cuts of lapels or trimmings, everyone will have their own choices they feel comfortable with. and so i think if more gentlemen chose to wear what they really want to wear, this would naturally break the black - tie style rules a little and as a result, break up the stuffiness of such events! do you like the idea on the next academy awards all men to wear colourful suits ?
i am absolutely a huge supporter of more colour in suits. perhaps no one can teach us better than the dandies of brazzaville, with their popularly known “democratic republic of style”. you can find some great colours without incurring a great expense, but unfortunately we still have a limited number of british mills offering such exotic colours. and so for the academy awards to offer themselves as an ambassador of colour should be congratulated .
