Tailored Suits
Feb. 22nd, 2011 01:55 pmJust because it made me smile....

Talking of tailored suits, I caught part of Sebastian Faulks series Faulks on Fiction Episode 3: The Snob on tv the other night. It was all a bit ho hum, but at one point Faulks is seen in an un-named Saville Row tailor's being fitted for a suit, in a glass case behind him was a quite the most gorgeous full dress naval uniform absolutely dripping with gold lace. From the glimpse I caught of it, I'd guess it dated from the early 19th century. I wonder who the tailor was?
