Bespoke Savile Row Suit

I’m going to assume you’re here because you’re looking for a bespoke suit that’s more fab than drab; having become tired of poorly-fitting, dull grey options you’ve come across us and thought “This looks a bit more exciting than other bespoke tailors I’ve seen.” and have decided that now is the time to invest in a suit that truly fits and reflects who you are and that makes you look and feel sharp, confident, and effortlessly stylish. If that’s the case, I’d love to help you!

A LESS STUFFY APPROACH TO SAVILE ROW TAILORING

I’ve worked with hundreds of busy, successful men all of whom have serious professions (Judges, CEOs, Film Directors, Partners of law firms) yet still want to look that bit cooler, stylish and have fun whilst doing so. Life’s too short for boring experiences and lack lustre outcomes; I want more for you than that.

When you look your absolute best, confidence radiates from you. It’s effortless, commanding, and leaves everyone intrigued, wondering what your secret is. And you feel pretty good about it too!

I’ll be frank: I love to make you look better than anyone else and better than you’ve ever looked before.

 

SAVILE ROW TAILORING WITH A MODERN TWIST

A bespoke suit is a truly special masterpiece, often confused with made-to-measure but distinctly different. From the construction to the final result, clients have shared that it feels ‘weightless’ and far superior to made-to-measure. We write a lot about the differences on our blog. Ultimately, it has to suit your level of need, desire, and investment. However, if you can, it’s something special to invest in.

“Voted one of the best Savile Row Tailors 2024 “Looking for a bespoke suit exactly the way you want it? Since 2007, that has been Alexandra Wood’s mission” to find out what the customer wants, and build upon it. While respectful of Savile Row, Alexandra Wood prides itself on its open-mindedness.”

”He was easily the best-dressed man in the room (once dubbed “GQ Man” by the Guardian). Even with his plate overloaded from the buffet, Umunna was looking good. Partly it is the way he carries himself – calm, relaxed, supremely confident – but also it is those bespoke suits he wears from Alexandra Wood on Savile Row.” Tony Parsons, GQ

”Her bespoke pieces have been worn by politicians, actors and film directors, as well as being named ‘’Tailor of the 21st Century’’ by GQ. This success has been hard won and thanks to 13 years experience. Alexandra has plenty of wisdom to share on the art of navigating a male-dominated environment and finding success on your own terms.”

”Alexandra isn’t your usual tailor. For one, she’s a woman – one of the first on Savile Row, and still something of a rarity on the storied street. Driven by a desire to make the world of men’s tailoring more personal and less intimidating, Alexandra began her tailoring career in womenswear, Alexandra quickly found she had a hidden talent for mens tailoring.”

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME

I’ll keep this brief because it’s really about you, but I understand that credibility and trust are crucial when investing in yourself.

I am Alexandra Wood, the first female Savile Row tailor, designing exclusively for men, featured in GQ, Esquire, Tatler, and Forbes for paving the way to a more fun, stylish, and enjoyable experience for busy, successful men. My team and I are women with a unique eye for making our male clients look extra special.

Due to the bespoke nature of our work, I can only work with a select few clients at a time. If you’re keen to see what I can do for you, I welcome you to take the first step and book a call to see if we’re the right fit for each other. (Tailoring puns are inevitable, by the way!) If you’re not quite ready, sign up for my mailing list. I like to be helpful to you either way.

NO SWEAT. JUST GREAT FABRIC

I won’t hand you an entire book of fabrics to choose from. It’s tedious, and you’ll likely pick the same thing you always have. You’re here because you want to look more exceptional. Choosing a fabric is where great tailoring starts. It needs to reflect who you are, be a colour, tone, and shade that suits you (I take this seriously!), and work for the life you lead. Super 180s wool is beautiful but often impractical. I present you with ideas that work for you and only you.

FIT & SHAPE

If you’re tired of poor-fitting, boxy, shapeless, or low-quality tailoring, I welcome you to an entirely new way of looking and feeling good. Over the years, I’ve worked hard to create a flattering line for clients who may no longer have abs to die for. Therefore, I’ve created my own cocktail of ingredients to ensure that every man leaving our showroom looks taller, sleeker, and more stylish.

Tailoring is a powerful illusion when done right, yet can be a mess and a wasted investment if done wrong.

THE EXPERIENCE

Savile Row can be intimidating for some, but not for those who visit Alexandra Wood. We treat you like a king but don’t expect you to be one. 

We’ve transformed the bespoke experience into something fun, warm, and welcoming. Our process is designed to make you feel at ease, ensuring you leave with a smile. Don’t just take our word for it; our clients rave, “That was the most fun I’ve had spending that much money” and “Wow! I would have never chosen that for myself.”

HAPPY CLIENTS

“I highly recommend Alexandra. The quality of the product is excellent and the service is first rate.” 

— Richard East,
Senior Partner, Quinn Emanuel

“Alexandra is a great tailor. She has excellent taste, works with you to find things which suit you and the quality of everything she has made for me is really high. The first batch of shirts she made for me 7 years ago has outlasted more recent batches from another Savile Row tailor. Add to that the fact she’s charming and uplifting company, I’m very happy to recommend Alexandra wholeheartedly.”

— Helier Drage-Smith
Director, PJT Partners

“I have now had four suits made from Alexandra Wood and they are by far the best I have had to date! The attention to detail is exemplary; the cut is flattering and the fabrics are some of the best you can buy. She provides great advice on style, colour, shape, and texture –all done with a smile on her face!”

—Tony Parsons,
GQ, Author, Journalist

On your first meeting/fitting, she will truly take the time to talk through your style icons, your ambitions, and what you’d like to achieve with your appearance. The entire experience is truly bespoke: you never feel like anyone else’s style is being imposed on you, or like you have to try to fit into someone else’s house style, whilst at the same time offering you her invaluable insight and style guidance. I wouldn’t go to any other tailor – she is (pun intended) absolutely a cut above!”

—Luka Krsyljanin,
Barrister
