Made
in Crewe ,Cheshire , England in the factory that
made the original Chester Barrie suits that were sold in the Chester
Barrie's Savile row store . Those suits are not to be confused with other
Chester Barrie suits such as Chester Barrie black label or Chester by
Chester Barrie those are sold in department stores and were not made in
this factory and they are not made to the same exacting standards as
the original Chester Barrie suits which were made in this factory and sold
in the Savile Row store .
When Ralph Lauren originally
launched his purple label range of suits they were made in this factory
for the
first few years .He then moved his production to a company in Italy
called Saint Andrews and then finally moving his production to Raffaelle
Caruso .
The factory
also made ready to wear suits for
many of Savile rows tailors including Huntsman and Richard Anderson .As
well as that they made the made to measure suits for esteemed shirt
maker Turnbull & Asser .
Lastly
they made under the last owners name Tony Lutwyche '' Lutwyche bespoke.
'' Sadly the company has gone bankrupt and I have acquired the
majority of the remaining suits . That is how I am able to offer
these suits at such a
great price .
Lutwyche
had two ranges of suits the first range was
priced between £3600 to £4500 depending on how expensive the cloth was .
These suits were similar in quality to Attolini , Brioni and Kiton .The
suits featured very expensive cloth and had hand finished button
holes .
The
second range of suits that Lutwyche made retailed between £1250 to
£2250 . These suits were similar in quality to Zegna , Canali ,
Corneliani and Pal Zileri . These suits were made with a floating
canvass chest piece and lapels . There is no fusing at all . The only
difference between these suits and the more expensive range was the more
expensive range was made with crazy expensive cloth and had hand
sewn button holes . On this range of suits the button holes are
finished by a sewing machine the same as Zegna, Canali , Corneliani and
Pal
Zileri suits .
