“Nothing Suits Me like A Suit”

May 21st, 2013 No comments

 

Here at SuitsMen and Rupert The Tailor, everything we do, think and say revolves around menswear and suits. Whether it’s the material that we need to use, the detailing we want to put on our new bespoke suits, or a new style that we think would be fantastic for our site. We think a lot about suits.

 

So when I was relaxing at home last week watching one of my favourite comedies on television, it amazingly turned out to be all about suits! And the next day I just had to show my colleagues what I had seen. The best ‘Suit Song’ I have ever heard.

 

Firstly before I show you the song, a little background information about the character needs to be explained.

 

Barney is a businessman who works for a large banking company. Everything he does and everywhere he goes he has to ‘suit up’ as this is his way of life. He believes everything is better when you are wearing a suit. (We at SuitsMen agree)

 

During this episode, a girl turns him down for a date due to his suit, so he changes to a t-shirt and jeans to show his life is not all about suits. When asked to choose between Suits and his date, Barney’s dilemma begins…

 

 

As shown throughout the song, a suit can brighten up your day, make you feel amazing and make you stand out from the crowd.

 

So here at SuitsMen and Rupert the Tailor, we will find you the perfect suit!

 

Especially with our Made to Measure Range now being available, you can have any suit you want. With any detailing, any lining colour from our selections and even your name or special saying monogrammed on the inside!

 

Take a look at all of our Made to Measure Suits here.

 

If you need one slightly sooner than the 3 week wait for a Made to Measure, we do have our Ready to Wear range, with colours and styles to suit every occasion. Have a look at those suits here.

 

Don’t forget you can also call us on 01335 361287 or email us here if you have any more questions or queries.

 

Or have a look at our Facebook and Twitter page for more photos, information and products.

 

As Barney Says…

Rupert The Tailor Dresses Celebrities…

April 16th, 2013 No comments

tx.aspx3  300x200 Rupert The Tailor Dresses Celebrities...

We are delighted to announce that Rupert The Tailor has been honored with making a suit for the Famous Jamie Moore of Ringside.

I went up to his gym last week, and was able to get some photos of him wearing his new suit. As you can see, it fits perfectly, and looks fantastic on him. As a boxer (Jamie held the British, Irish and European Middleweight titles until he retired) Jamie struggles to find clothes that fit him properly, so a bespoke suit is vital if he wants to look smart.

tx.aspx4  200x300 Rupert The Tailor Dresses Celebrities...

 

You will see him on Ringside, on Sky on the 16th April, wearing it for the first time.

Jamie had a suit made in a bright Navy, with a single red button on his cuff, (He asked for this personalisation as it shows his support for his local team, now which one would that be I wonder!)

He went for the slim fit, and a Regal Red lining, opening cuff buttons, and plain front trousers. Inside we added a monogram of “Jamie Moore – Ringside. While the red buttons are not a standard personalisation, if you would like one the same, just drop us a line. All personalisations are free of course.

We hope to be asked to make a suit for his trip to Afghanistan this summer, when he goes with Sky to work with the Army over there.

March 20th, 2013 No comments

Rupert the Tailor allows you to buy your perfect suit, jacket or trousers with the greatest of ease!

 

We have told you about our items from our British Wool Suits, to our Nehru and Double Breasted, our Corduroy and Fashion Blazers and our Wool Blend Trousers.

 

We now have waistcoats to match some of the suits making them the perfect 3 piece suits!

 

Our easy to follow measurement guide is available online as well as through the post, we also have the “Travel to You Measurement Service in Derbyshire”. Making taking your measurements as easy and as simple as possible. No stress, No hassle.

 

Our suits are put together in the style we believe is best for that type of suit. With the number of buttons on the front and sleeves, the colour of the lining and piping or even the number of vents it has.

 

But this isn’t set in stone. For those of you who want to alter, change and tweak bits of your suit then that is fine and available using our personalisation page.

 

Change lining colours, piping colours, number of buttons; you can even have a monogram embroided on the inside of your jacket to make it unique and personal.

How to tie a Bow Tie – The Facts Explained!

March 15th, 2013 No comments

 

Many try to avoid the stress and strain of tying their own Bow-Tie. The strange twists and knots of material to get that perfect bow.

 

But it’s not as hard as many people think, to achieve the look they are after. There are many guides around for those who do not know where to start or to refresh those memories that have done it before.

 

So below, SuitsMen have put their own Bow-Tie Guide, easy to follow instructions for your Bow-Tie.

 

The Bow Tie should never be wider than the broadest part of your neck and should not extend past the tips of your shirt collar.

Take a look at the instructions and have a go yourself. Remember you probably won’t get it right straight away, but practice makes perfect!

 

1) Looking into a mirror put the Bow Tie around your neck. You should have the piece on the left hand side 1.5″ lower than the right.

2) Cross the left piece over the top of the right, and then fold it back under and up through the loop.

3) The right hand piece is now hanging down, fold this to the right and then double it back on itself.

4) With your left forefinger and thumb, hold this folded piece secure, and drop the left piece (the other piece) down over the front on the fold.

5) Take the left piece mid way up and pass through the back fold loop.

5 191x300 How to tie a Bow Tie   The Facts Explained!

6) Push the loop through the knot behind the front loop and pull tight. Be careful not to over pull it and try to make it as even as possible!

Once you master the Bow Tie Knot you will be able to master anything! Not forgetting ties and cravats.

 

If there are any other items of clothing that you don’t know how to tie or wear, please let us know and we will do a blog for you with instructions and illustrations.

 

We have a number of Bow Ties, Cravats and Ties available on the website so why not take a look.
