Somehow this went under my radar: https://savilerow-style.com/accessories ... -showroom/

"Big five" [of SR houses] is now "big four"?

This happened a way back, if I'm not mistaken
I walked by the store right before lockdown (early March) and it was already empty.

This makes me sad - a once-storied Savile Row name now punting out cheap RTW. That said, if I recall correctly they were licensing in the US market (made by Samuelsohn?) even in the 1980s...

The Kilgour studio is offering a 2nd chance to grab one of our timeless SB1 and SB2 jackets for just £199

Needless to say it looks like the aforementioned jackets are anything but ‘timeless’ - short, tight grey wool things very redolent of the noughties
