My boyfriend…read morewas always moaning that East London and other vintage shops just don't have really high class, proper matching suits for *all* sizes (he's quite slim and not a big tall buff guy, if you know what I mean but not a whippet either), he always finds it hard to get fitted suits that are vintage. This place is now his mecca. The attire is proper gentlemen's clothes / suits and something a little more special than some of the trash in East London or the cheap nonsense in Central London. If you are a man and a fan of vintage clothes, this should be your first stop - these guys pride themselves on specialising on vintage suits and they really are the best I've found.

Especially good if you want to get things like Morning Suits or DJs. There is a lot of stock, so you may have to search for what you need.

We visited on a Saturday while the market was in full swing so the store was crammed with people. The Mister was taken with their men's messenger bags and settled on a very stylish model that was waxed so it's rain resistant. At under £40, it was reasonably priced and it's good quality too. Kelly couldn't resist a smaller purse - again, stylish, sturdy and a great souvenir! The staff, despite being so busy, was lovely and gave us some good recommends for local places to grab a bite. Worth a stop!

I have to say, if you or I were to go into this shop now and compared it with what it looked like back in 2000 and 2002, all the staff and the shop itself has changed considerably. Gieves & Hawkes as a Savile Row company has changed a completely, ever since I first knew them as a school boy. But I do still like the Gieves & Hawkes brand, only to some extent.

Their Polo shirts gained almost iconic status with the Chelsea set and have been loved and worn by many ever since.

Upmarket feel to this nearly designer clothing from this quality clothing manufacturer. Cult like status with some, chosen by the discerning buyer of fashion. If you want to appear at least middle class then this is one for the wardrobe.

The manager, Fiona, is very helpful and friendly, and she, along with Genevieve, always greet me like a friend and help me find the clothes best suited to me. I make a point of shopping there every summer and I highly recommend everyone give them a look. The clothes are extremely well-made of fine material. I think I have more Hackett clothes than any other store in my wardrobe now. Thanks a million. See you next summer!

Bamford…read more& Sons is a label with long heritage but I am embarrassed to admit that for me this was the first time I even heard from the label. My excuse is that I am a woman after all. The first impression was that the clothes were essential pieces, very classical and well made, anything between business ans leisure, with very upscale price tags. We decided to get the tie elsewhere. I can't imagine anyone of my under thirty year old friends as regular customer of this label but that is just my youthful opinion about their target group based on the safe looking designs.
