Tailored Stories - An Oral History of Savile Row


One viewer wrote "I thought this showed excellence in everything from the making of the film, the sensitivity and choice and range of people and the pure history and long may (??) Savile Row and such people exist and flourish."


Some viewers will recognize some of the well-known personalities in Savile Row; they look a little younger as this was filmed in 2015.


I enjoyed watching the tailor who couldn't remember the name of an old oversized wooden and weighted pressing tool. I assume it was called a clapper even back then. He said cloth was heavier and stiffer years ago as it needed a lot of steam and weighting to set the cloth.
