Savile Row tailors
Savile Row is one short street in Mayfair, and 25 of our 102 London listings are on it. That concentration is the reason it is hard to compare them: only 7 publish a price, and most quote on request. What follows is what the Row does tell you.
The houses, and how old they are
Gieves & Hawkes has been at No.1 since 1771, Davies & Son since 1803, Norton & Sons since 1821, Huntsman since 1849 and Dege & Skinner since 1865. Age is not quality, but it does tell you a house has a filed pattern for customers who came back. Several newer names work on the same street: Richard Anderson has been independent only since 2001.
What the Row publishes
7 of the 25 give a starting price: £999 at roomten, £1,750 at Caroline Andrew, £1,795 at Marc Oliver, £3,000 at Phillip Alexander, £5,500 at Edward Sexton, £6,600 at Norton & Sons and £7,500 at Huntsman. The other 18 quote on request. Four have no website at all, so the Google listing is all there is to go on before you visit.
The streets around it
Old Burlington Street, Sackville Street, Clifford Street and Cork Street hold houses that trained on the Row and work to the same standard without the address. Anderson & Sheppard has cut its own softer style from Old Burlington Street since 1906. Three of our listings share one Sackville Street address between them. If the Row's prices are the obstacle, this is where to look first.
