Snow is here. It made our planned photo shooting rather difficult but it turned out well.
The suit is a classic three-piece with some interesting detailing like slanted waistcoat pockets and gauntlet cuffs. Steven Hitchcock, an independent tailor on Savile Row, made it. The gentleman accessorizes the suit with a sea island cotton shirt, a reversible bow tie in raw silk, and tassel loafers.

A beautiful suit of striking cloth and worn well. It is easy to admire, but for most of us, who live in cities, unwearable. Even as a weekend suit it would look rather peculiar on a city street. Still, a lovely piece of work.
Beautiful suit, great taste and an elegant gent! I have been following this gentleman on Steven Hitchcock’s blog.
The gent has great taste and a refreshing approach to wearing bespoke. Stevens cut and style is fantastic on this man, it looks like a happy bespoke friendship!
To Peter Townsend, if I saw a man wearing this on a weekend in any city, I would have utter respect for him – acknowledging that he had self worth and educated himself. So, start looking for a tweed suit that’s going to make you feel fantastic too!
This is a great pic … Very distinct styling
I was wondering who the man in the photo is?
Also, where did he get that wonderful bow tie?
I’m pretty sure it’s a Dolbeau creation
Thanks and keep up the good work.
I was lucky enough to be present at the fitting for this suit at Steven Hitchcock’s on the Row, there is a short piece on my tumblr with some photo’s of the fittings.
