Black or midnight blue, with a shawl or peak lapel. Own one and you are dressed for every black tie invitation that comes your way.
From navy and charcoal to lighter tones for summer weddings – when buying, we carry most colours. We help you find a cut that works for both the occasion and the working week.
An upgrade on the everyday suit. Cut longer than a standard jacket with a slim, elegant line – ceremonial without going to white tie. Available in black, mid grey and pale grey.
A black or grey coat with grey striped trousers, a grey waistcoat and a cravat at the neck. Traditionally worn at morning weddings, though nowadays later in the day as well. Own one and you are set for every wedding to come.
Full and short mess dress for the Swedish Army, Navy, Air Force and Merchant Navy. Cut to your measurements and your rank, to regulation. We have done it since 1932.
The Swedish police ceremonial dress, complete and cut to your measurements. Demand peaks around graduation and ceremonial days – allow good time.
Complete what you already own, or finish a new outfit. If you do not know what the invitation requires, we will help you put it together.
Rent or buy?
Rent if it is a single occasion and you cannot picture the next time you would wear it. A graduation ball, a friend's wedding, one gala.
Buy if a formal invitation reaches you more often than every other year, or if you know your own wedding day is coming. By the third wearing, a purchase has usually paid for itself.
Have it made if you are hard to fit off the peg, or if you want exactly the cloth, lining and lapel you had in mind.
How buying works
We start from the occasion, your build and what you already have in the wardrobe.
You try several options. We tell you honestly what works and what does not.
Sleeve length, trouser length, waist and shoulders adjusted by our own tailors. Alterations are charged separately – you get the price before the work begins.
You collect the finished garment in the shop. No shipping, no home delivery.
No appointment is needed to look – but with one, you have our full attention.
