Who is Philip Sawyer Bespoke? And what does “bespoke” actually mean?

 
 

For more than 45 years, Philip Sawyer has been a classic tailor and couturier in the tradition of Savile Row or other classic custom apparel houses, designing and making all types of unique men’s and women’s garments. He has also taught at the Rhode Island School of Design since 2011.

“Bespoke” means we begin with your essential measurements, while also sizing up your individual physical attributes, then proceed to drafting a pattern for you alone, using not only those measurements, but ensuring that any unique personal attributes and style are also accounted for, so that the resulting garment makes you look better than you are.

As for fabrics, we source our cotton, linen, silk and wool suitings and shirtings from the best in the business, most of whom have been around for a century or more.
