Up for auction is this extremely lovely British Belt Backed suit which is from my personal collection of vintage tailoring. Belted Back suits are more common in American and European tailoring and are quite scarce in British vinatge tailoring found today. These don’t come up for sale very often and is a one off chance to add one to your collection.
Tailored by Reid Bros
Condition
The suit is in overall lovely condition and is perfectly wearable. There are a few moth holes which are dotted over the jacket and trousers. I’ve photographed all of these and have added them on the listing. Please look through all of the photographs as these form part of the description. This suit is amazing and the few imperfections do not detract.
