SAVILE ROW BESPOKE

In 2021 Norton & Sons celebrated 200 years of tailoring and to this day remains at the pinnacle of bespoke tailoring excellence. Understated, effortlessly stylish and of unsurpassable quality, these are the finest clothes a man can buy.

The Bespoke Process

Bespoke tailoring on Savile Row is an art perfected over almost 700 years. At Norton & Sons our tailoring team assemble each suit without compromise; each piece of cloth and canvas that goes into your suits is painstakingly marked and cut by hand; thousands of hand stitches join the cloth to its canvas interlinings; the sections of the garment are skillfully shaped by hand into your exact form; linings, edges and buttonholes are meticulously finished by hand.

Appointments are available at our Bespoke Shop at 16 Savile Row or via our frequent international Trunks Shows.

Consultation

The Bespoke process begins with a consultation. We will discuss where you will wear your clothes, your personal tastes and your lifestyle so that we can offer the correct advice on cloth, construction and detail.
The process of choosing your cloth should be a pleasure. Specialising in British cloth, we also offer cloth from the leading cloth mills of the world.
Once a style and cloth has been selected our master cutters will take your individual measurements and make notes on figure and posture.

Fitting

From this our master cutter will hand-cut an individual pattern which will be refined throughout the fitting process, starting off with a basted fitting.
A basted fitting is the 'outer shell' of your suit. Cut from your cloth yet minus detailing such as pockets, linings and finishes, we will conduct as many fittings as is needed to ensure the perfect fit.
No detail is too small, everything is taken into account to ensure the garment will fit your perfectly, highlighting, adding and subtracting what is needed.

Finishing

The final touches are added from buttons and buttonholes, embroidery and any finishing details, all by hand.
Once your pattern has been perfected it is retained in our records for all future orders, speeding up the process for existing customers.
The making of a single suit involves up to eleven craftsmen and may take between 60-80 hours. Your suit is passed through the hands of our finest coatmakers, trouser makers, finishers and pressers, all to result in a beautiful bespoke garment that is built to stand the test of time.

The team at Norton & Sons is a blend of expert craftsmanship and creativity. At the heart of the process are the tailors who have mastered the art of fit, precision and craft. Our cutters translate measurements into unique, precise patterns, tailoring each suit to the wearer’s individual shape.

Together, our close-knit team combines tradition with innovation, delivering you a true Bespoke experience second to none.

The House Cut

One of the key factors behind Norton & Sons' continued success constant evolution of its house cut. While deeply rooted in the rich heritage of Savile Row tailoring, Norton & Sons has never been one to rest on tradition alone or cling too rigidly to the past.

The Norton cut is renowned for its distinctive, modern tailoring that blends classic elegance with a dynamic, forward-thinking approach. The jacket features a softer shoulder, creating a more natural, comfortable line that feels less stiff and more fluid. The close fit through the chest, coupled with a nipped-in waist and a gentle skirt provides a flattering silhouette that is both sharp without being overly structured. This shape is balanced by the high armhole, which adds comfort and movement ensuring that the suit is practical as well as form fitted.
