Some Reading
Material
For those that would like to do a bit of light reading about tailoring and the industry.
Cutting & Tailoring Courses For Beginners
Whether it's learning a new language, a musical instrument or an artistic skill, ten thousand hours is the recognised time frame to master any subject. Tailoring is no different. Ten thousand hours works out to seven years, working a five day week, forty hours a week. This is also the same amount of time our Master Tailor, Rory Duffy spent studying the tailoring trade under some of the finest artisans in both the UK and Ireland.
Making Your Own Waistcoat
Making your own waistcoat is a great way of getting pride from one’s own work and marking the stepping stone from spectator to tailor. When compared to other garments like trousers and coats, the waistcoat is a much simpler garment to make.
Savile Row Tailoring
Savile Row tailoring, though often copied, is rarely ever equalled.
About Tailoring Apprenticeships
When we think of learning the tailoring trade one is first drawn to the idea of securing a tailoring apprenticeship.
