Tailoring For Women — Norton & Sons

Introducing Norton & Sons Tailoring for Women

Since 1821, Norton & Sons has been a hallmark of Savile Row craftsmanship, renowned for our bespoke tailoring and creating the finest garments for those who appreciate the art of tailoring.

We are excited to be extending this legacy to a new women's made-to-measure service, bringing a fresh perspective to our 200 year Savile Row heritage. Although we have always been known predominantly as a men’s tailor, few know about the exciting array of female clientele we’ve dressed throughout our history. From Queen Victoria, The Queen of Spain and the Empress of Austria, to helping create tailoring ranges for Christopher Kane, Jenny Packham and The Kooples.

We believe our new women's service is a pioneering step towards redefining women's tailoring on Savile Row. It embodies the artistry and heritage of Norton & Sons, while also embracing modernity and innovation to cater to today's woman, who seek craftsmanship and tailoring that reflects their individual taste and requirements.

The House Cut

Our house cut follows the same principles as our menswear - a silhouette that is natural, elegant and, most of all, comfortable. We keep things simple with a natural shoulder, slim sleeve, slim waist and slight flare of the skirt. Whilst maintaining a precise style, we will work with you to build on this template providing flexibility to your requirements.

As experts in the field, each of our tailors will guide you through the process, helping to advise you on the technical aspects of the cut, whilst working with you on your desired style.

The Process

Here at Norton & Sons, we are proud to offer both Made to Measure and Bespoke tailoring services for women. While both options result in a beautifully fitted garment, there are some important distinctions to consider when deciding which service best meets your needs.

Bespoke tailoring is the pinnacle of personalization. Each garment is crafted entirely from scratch, with patterns created specifically for your unique body measurements and style preferences. The process involves multiple fittings and allows for limitless levels of customization. All of our bespoke is fully made in-house by our skilled tailors who work meticulously to ensure that every element of your suit is perfect.

In contrast, our Made to Measure service offers a more streamlined approach. This option begins with a pre-existing pattern that is adjusted to your measurements. While there are fewer customisation options compared to Bespoke, Made to Measure still provides a high degree of personalisation and still results in an impeccable fit. This service is ideal for those looking for a faster turnaround and a more cost-effective solution without compromising on quality.

Both services reflect our commitment to exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail. To learn more about the specific processes and benefits of each tailoring option, please click below.
