"Don't try to be original. Be simple. Be good technically, and if there is something in you, it will come out! " | Henri Matisse

Classic English

The Traditional Model is an easy-to-make English jacket with a classic 50s Savile Row look. You can consider it an amalgamation of Kilgour, French and Stanbury, Huntsman, and Anderson & Sheppard cuts from that time.

Its classic and simple construction make it the ideal choice for beginners. If you're new to tailoring, choose this model. You will learn fundamental techniques and principles without feeling overwhelmed by the complexity of each step.

Before You Begin...
Do you know the correct way to use
a tailor's thimble?

Before you start the Traditional Model Playlist, learn to correctly use a tailor's thimble. Your thimble is your most used tool. If you are using it incorrectly, you will sew imprecise, bend your needles and hurt your joint.

 

We have put together a playlist of basic sewing skills. It includes 16 hand stitches that you need to know to make a bespoke jacket. If you are new to tailoring, practice these stitches before committing to this model.โ€‹
