Laurie
Hopkins was a regimental tailor for the Kings Troop, based
in St Johns Wood London back in the late 1950’s and
early 1960’s and has personally been making and overseeing
the detailed process of Made to Measure suit design and manufacturing
ever since.
Over
the years, he has personally designed 1000’s of made
to measure suits for clients, ranging from the simple 2 button
single breasted suit for work to the more elaborate designs
favoured by those who are perhaps getting married or wanting
a Laurie Hopkins Menswear made to measure suit for stage wear.
Throughout
the past 10 years Laurie has spent time searching for partner
companies who can carry on the tradition and quality of a
Laurie Hopkins Menswear designed and made suit. He has personally
vetted cutters, machinists and pressers to guarantee that
any made to measure suit that carries the famous Laurie Hopkins
Menswear label continues the design and build quality Laurie
pioneered all those years ago in London.
This
detailed examination of the UK mens tailoring and made to
measure sector has ultimately resulted in Laurie Hopkins Menswear
now producing some of the finest Tailor made suits and garments
available outside of Savile Row and for a fraction of the
cost.
Michael,
Laurie’s son has been measuring and fitting clients
made to measure suits for the past 15 years alongside Laurie
and has developed the same key relationships with skilled
craftspeople in order to guarantee that any Laurie Hopkins
Menswear made to measure suit that carries the famous Laurie
Hopkins Made to Measure label lives up to the ideals and qualities
of the garments that were produced by Laurie way back in the
50’s & 60’s in London.
It
is often said within the trade that the key to a quality made
to measure suit is relationships. One of the most essential
is the relationship between the cutter and the measurer. Laurie
& Michael have for almost 20 years used the same cutters,
over this period they have created an understanding and synergy
with them where it’s almost as if the cutter measured
you or the measurer cut your cloth! This is the ‘secret’
to the Laurie Hopkins Menswear made to measure suit.
