This is the first in a series of visits with the SR tailors at Huntsman.

Very nice video Mr. Alden. However, I had a hard time hearing Peter Smith. What you might want to do is use a hand held mic or get two lav mics. Your voice came in just fine.

Thanks for putting these nice videos together.

Best Regards,

Huntsman - undoubtedly the most elegant silhouette from Savile Row.

I know what you mean to say and on the dummy their tweed coat looks awfully good. But the award of "most elegant silhouette" will depend entirely on the elegance of the man wearing the clothes! :)

Stay tuned for Huntsman 2 and 3 for more.

Cheers

Huntsman: undoubtedly the best dress dummies on Savile Row.

Interesting to see some discussion devoted to Huntsman which, of all the great names on SR, is the least discussed here on the LL.

I agree that they have the most attractive window display on the Row (though I also like the simplicity of Norton & Sons's "only one dummy in the window at a time" approach), though personally I'm not a fan of the one-button coat. Whenever I see someone wearing one I do a double-take because, at first glance, I take it for a two-button with a missing button.
