DRESS TO IMPRESS
Norton & Townsend have long been a trusted name when it comes to tailored suits but they have now extended their services to include home visits and a new range of stunning outerwear.
If you’re looking to impress in a beautiful, perfectly fitted bespoke suit, long-established tailors Norton & Townsend pride themselves on being a cut above the rest.
From their showroom in Spitalfields, London and at their head office in Ilkley, their team of experienced and dedicated tailors have thousands of fabrics and linings for clients to choose from and can guarantee that if they don’t have the cloth or colour you are looking for, they will move heaven and earth to find it for you.
Headed by Richard Jupp and Victoria Thompson, Norton & Townsend are committed to delivering a straight-forward service with no confusion and no hype.
Having retained the passionate tailors who have served the business so well for nearly 20 years, Victoria and Richard have spent the past few years restructuring their offering and expanding their range even further.
The introduction of a new outerwear collection, which includes a new peacoat and contemporary overcoat, along with a home-visit service which allows clients to be fitted and styled in the comfort of their own homes, has proved a huge success.
Talking about the business, which she joined in 2019, Victoria said: “With hundreds of styling options that are tailored to the highest specification by some of the most respected British weavers, we are proud of our reputation and tradition for delivering beautiful tailored suits that ooze style and elegance.
“Our tailors take dozens of measurements and body figuration observations to ensure a perfect fit and with a long and close relationship with our cloth suppliers it means we can always stay one step ahead of the game allowing us to predict future trends and styles.
“We never just find the colour you’re looking for, we work hard to make sure the tailoring, the fabric and the styling work together to give you the best version of the suit you need.”
With a keen eye on form and silhouette Victoria added: “All our suits are measured to flatter and the better the fit, the easier a suit is to wear.
“As standard, our half-canvassed suits will work for most occasions but we also offer full canvas and deconstructed where needed and we are always happy to discuss your exact requirements and talk through your options.”
While they mostly make suits and shirts, the team at Norton & Townsend can tailor almost anything and their extensive knowledge of traditional garments and countrywear ensures that alongside a suit they can build your wardrobe from scratch or spot a missing garment that would complete a stylish look.
Victoria added: “We love a challenge as much as we love to offer value and solutions and it is the passion and expertise we bring to every job that ensures we retain such a long and loyal customer base. We’re proud of our reputation as not just retailers, but trusted tailors.”
