Notes from Paris

Solitary Figure - the window of 16 Savile Row

The above image is from a fantastic blog http://parisiangentleman.co.uk/ "The French voice of sartorial excelence"

On this website you can see some beautiful black and white photos of all who work in Norton's during a normal day. Please all check out the blog and enjoy the great articles on tailoring worldwide.

Rip down and re cut.....

So this is the beginning!

My name is Nicholas Hammond and I have been an apprentice cutter at Norton and Sons, 16 Savile Row, for 1 year.

This blog is to document all the things I encounter on a daily basis whilst working in the work room of traditional Savile Row tailors.



 I have tried in many ways to start this blog and now finaly begin! Pictures, information and style advise that I learn, I will share (without revealing too many trade secrets!)

This is an amazing job and I want to help give an insight into the world of Savile Row bespoke tailors..........from the inside!
