Why choose this bespoke-style burgundy suit
-
Fine Italian wool. Super 150s is a fine worsted wool with a smooth, soft hand and a clean drape, made in Italy and woven to a 270 gm weight.
-
Half-canvassed jacket. A layer of canvas runs through the chest and lapels, so the jacket moulds to you over time and the lapel rolls naturally instead of lying flat.
-
Bemberg lining. Bemberg cupro breathes and handles moisture better than polyester, so the jacket feels cooler and slides on and off easily. The navy lining adds a quiet contrast to the burgundy cloth.
-
Side vents. Two vents let the jacket move with you and sit cleanly when you sit down or put your hands in your pockets.
-
Made to your size. Choose a standard jacket size and length, give us your body measurements, or send the measurements of a suit that already fits you well.
When to wear a burgundy suit
Burgundy is a confident alternative to navy and charcoal. Wear it to a wedding as a guest or groomsman with a white shirt and a black or navy tie, to an evening dinner or party with a crisp white shirt and dark brown or black shoes, or to a celebration where you want a rich colour that still looks formal.
How to order your size
Standard size. Choose your jacket size (36 to 52), your length (Short, Regular or Long) and your trouser waist and inseam.
My measurements. Enter your chest, stomach, seat, shoulder, jacket length, sleeve, trouser waist and inseam, with your height and weight. We add the right ease for the fit you choose.
My favourite suit. Lay a suit that fits you well flat and measure it. We copy those numbers.
Every measurement has a picture guide, and our suit size guide explains each one. See more in our custom suits collection, or pair this suit with a custom dress shirt. Prefer a classic colour? Try our navy Italian wool suit or black Italian wool suit.
Frequently asked questions
What is a Super 150s wool suit?
Super 150s describes how fine the wool fibres are. A higher number means finer fibres, which gives a softer, smoother cloth with a refined drape.
What does half-canvassed mean?
A half-canvassed jacket has a floating layer of canvas sewn through the chest and lapels instead of being glued. It gives the jacket shape, a natural lapel roll and a longer life than a fused jacket.
Is a burgundy suit good for a wedding?
Yes. A burgundy suit is a popular choice for a wedding guest or groomsman. Pair it with a white shirt, a black or navy tie and dark brown or black shoes.
Is this suit made to measure?
Yes. Every suit is cut and sewn to order for one person in our atelier, from a standard size you choose or from your own measurements.
What is included?
A two-piece suit: the jacket and the matching trousers in the same burgundy Super 150s wool.
How long does it take to make and deliver?
Your suit is made in 10 to 12 working days, or 3 to 5 working days with urgent stitching on request. Shipping is free worldwide and tracked: delivery after dispatch takes 8 to 10 working days to the USA, UK, Canada and Europe, 7 to 8 to the Middle East and 10 to 12 to the rest of the world.
How do I care for a wool suit?
Dry clean only, and not too often. Hang the suit on a shaped hanger, brush it after wearing and let it rest a day between wears so the wool can recover.
