It's nice to know that you can still go to a few remaining independent clothes shops; especially…read moresomewhere where you can always pick up unique t-shirts that nobody else will have. I personally hate seeing everybody wearing the very same garment that you bought a month ago from the very same chain store! Little Italy is full of one off men's clothing (or batches made specifically for the shop), so you never have to worry about blending in with everybody else. Although, I have to say, other than a few unusual patterned t-shirts, the type of fashion is not really to my taste. The shop would be perfect for the trendier men out there though! Prices are average, and most t-shirts cost around £10, which is general to most chain retailers; So you're getting something unique for the same price. It's a shame that shops such as this are hidden away in shopping centres outside of the city centre. I can see this store being very popular if it were located in central Brum.

Ede and Ravenscroft is one of those shops that really belongs in Oxford. It's a little glimpse into…read morethe past and into the world of esteemed traditional businessmen. I reckon most people who go in are just curious at the idea of a traditional tailors, and it's a refreshingly quiet change to similar shops in London. It specialises in menswear, but I've had a browse around for cufflinks and ties as presents for male friends and family members. Unfortunately for me, the price is high for such quality products, so I remain an admiring window shopper. There is a 10% discount for students, so it's a good place for interview or internship clothes, or even for sub-fusc, if you want quality clothes that will last. It also caters for academics, legal professions and even clerical outfits. You can treat it as a normal shop or get professionally measured and have clothes tailor-made. Great fun to browse around, but definitely not an everyday shop.

The Ede & Ravenscroft branch on High Street is most likely the best choice for suit, shirts and…read moreformal wear in Oxford. As part of the Ede & Ravenscroft tailoring house in London's Old Burlington Street, not only does the Oxford shop offer ready-made suits, sweaters, ties, shirts and accessories, they are also able to deliver custom-made shirts and suits and to my knowledge -at least until recently- had a tailor coming in for bespoke clothes. The choice of clothes and formal wear is quite remarkable for a small city like Oxford, and with quite a few well-off kids joining the local university each year, there definitely is demand for a shop like E & R. They do provide a great variety of dinner suits, and since every student at Oxford University at some point during his university life requires a dinner suit, this would be my recommended place to get it from. And students even get a 10 percent discount (at least they got it during my student time).

Whilst the price might put you off there was a 50% off rail when I went and I spotted a black French Connection dress reduced to £65. The woman in the shop was really friendly and asked me to tell her if anything caught my eye or if I wanted to know anymore about any of the designers. One brightly coloured section stood out to me which was from Spanish designer Desigual, the woman explained to me. I think my mum would like the bright bold patterned tops from this designer. As for myself I only found a couple of things I would buy and I'm afraid they were out of my budget. In fact I think I preferred the men's clothes to the women's- they have a much bigger choice!

Their label list can be considered equal to that of the most excellent pieces you'd expect to find in London, New York or Paris. The shop itself is an interesting walk-through. Each room as a set staged with it's own personality (era specific) all highlighting a new season, usage, label and/or aesthetic. What's on this glamorous menu? Acqua di Parma Armani Belstaff Burberry (excellent selection) Canali C.P. Company Citizens of Humanity Eton (No, not that Eton) Holland Esq. Hugo Boss Oliver Sweeney Montcler Mulberry (a wonderful, traditional and established label not yet well known in the States). Perry (not just the Mod polo shirts) Paul Smith Tod's etc. The staff are hip and upscale. As an American I won't deny getting the feeling the gentlemen working here had been butlers in a past life - much more than simple salesmen. Well done, Sirs. Very well done.

My wife swears blind that they didn't put them in the charity bag by accident, but they have disappeared off the face of the earth. I trawled everywhere to find a pair to match the jacket, which was purchased from M&S, as were the trousers. Go to M&S then..... Needed them that night.... and M&S in Redditch don't stock them. I won't bore you with the other stores..... The chap at Heaphys went through loads of permutations, and even offered to use their tailor to make any adjustments. Unfortunately, we just couldn't make a match. He spent ages with me, but no sale. So I plan to go back and get them to adjust some trousers to another suit, and buy an overcoat. I definitely, won't be going anywhere else. I was really impressed by the superb customer service. I'll report back after this weekend.
