So after putting our heads together and discussing what they were after out of their marriage ceremony and how they wanted to get that idea across we played around with a few different colours and fabrics and finally decided on this blue cotton fabric from Dugdale Bros. through Huddersfield Cloth. We went for nice big peak lapels with pick stitching around them and then added a bit more blue around the button holes 2010-4-21T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#63497 This is a little waistcoat that we made for someone who fancied a waistcoat to go with a tweed jacket that we made them A nice little touch check out the added vertical button hole that is used when wearing a pocket watch. A great tradition that is unfortunately disappearing but if you see me at any wedding and other events you will always notice my Great Grandfathers rather smart pocket watch being worn 2010-4-21T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#62125 We are incredibly proud to announce a new range to our bespoke shirts our handmade in the UK Wilfred Haridge range.

As we did at Didmarton we will have our tent up for people to come and chat to us have a feel of our clothing and clothes purchase our socks jumpers and RTW shirts and blazers and get measured up if you fancy. We will be attending a number of country shows and exhibitions over the next few months so please keep an eye out on where we will be by keeping an eye on our blog There will be a huge host of RTW clothing to buy from RTW shirt and blazers to English made jumpers and socks so come along and see us. 2010-3-18T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#59283 The overcoat is an essential piece of clothing for the Englishman not only is it an item of clothing that you will end up wearing farmore than you expected it is also 1 item of clothing that can really stand out from the crowd as being made just for you. most overcoats that you see on people out and about are always always too big around the shoulder. For some reason Gentlemen seem to buy off the peg overcoats that are far too big and so when you have one that is fitted just for you the result stands out even more. Now overcoats can come in a variety of shapes and sizes from double breasted to single breasted wide lapel peaks rounded lapels knee length ankle length frock coat etc and in a huge variety of fabric. If you only ever have 1 good overcoat I would suggest going for either a navy blue or charcoal grey coat. The style can then very much be developed to you but do try and have your coat built to allow you to wear it in as many different ways and with as many different o... 2010-2-26T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#58488 Made in England We are absolutely delighted and extremely excited to announce that all of our made to measure suits jackets trousers overcoatswaistcoats etc. are all now going to be made right here in England so we can officially carry the Made in England label. All of our suits etc will all have the Made in England label in them and so you will be sure to know that each suit jacket trouser or overcoat will be made right here on these shores and with English cloth so you really will have an exceptional piece of English tailored clothing. Whilst other local tailors are moving their suit production abroad we have brought ours back and so from now on you will see the Made in England label on all of our suits and made to measure clothing.

It has also become more and more popular in casual wear matching a well cut jacket with jeans and trainers. The selection of fabrics that you can make a jacket from is even more versatile than your suit fabrics. If you want something slightly different why not look at some wool silk mixes cottons cord linens etc. There are however a minimum of four jackets that every Gentleman should have in their wardrobe. Firstly a plain navy blue blazer. Slightly old school but will never be wrong. To make it a little bit more special have it cut a bit closer than a normal blazer and find some amazing metal buttons that you can have put on it making it more personal. If you are in the Armed Forces then have your regimental buttons or have a Hunt or club buttons. Single or double breasted is a personal choice but steer clear of double breatsed if you are under 50. Secondly A linen... 2010-2-12T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#57996 Style Counsel A Gentlemans Wardrobe8022010 Over the last few weeks I have been getting a lot of questions about what items of clothing a Gentleman should have in his wardrobe. So what we have decided to do here is over the next few weeks put together a blog of the sort of things that every Gentleman should have in his wardrobe so that he is correctly and immaculately dressed for every possible occasion. So to start things off lets begin with the most stable of items The Suit Actually this should really read suits. No Gentleman can ever survive on one suit alone. So lets look at the basics. these are more work based we will look at the linen and seer sucker suits later in the series 1. A Navy Blue suit This is an all time classic and will never let you down. How you wear it is down to a personal choice but I always say to my clients a good single breasted navy blue suit is a must. A Navy blue suit is extremely versatile and cut correctly can be used for drinks parties and m... 2010-2-8T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#57210 I I was up in Huddersfield and Leeds yesterday meeting some new suppliers and having lunch with Huddersfield Cloth who are a fantastic online cloth provider. Whilst we were chatting away it came to light that Rian from Huddersfield Cloth has managed to get the exclusive rights to sell the actual cloth that Daniel Craig as James Bond used for all of his suits That is right it is the cloth that was made exclusively for the James Bond suits and is not available anywhere else Guess who now has the exclusive rights to use this cloth for his suits in the South West and The Cotswolds Yes that is right Barrington Ayre Shirtmaker amp Tailor. We are the only tailors across the South West and The Cotswolds to be able to use this cloth. In fact we are the only Tailor in the UK who has actually seen and felt the cloth That happened last night in a BMW X5 parked up behind some shops just outside Huddersfield This is such sort after and secret cloth that it was all a bit claok and dagger bri... 2010-1-28T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#56078 Well we have been in London for Monday and Tuesday of this week visiting new customers across the City and popping in to see a few of our exisiting clients too. It was an incredibly successful trip and after a rather hairy morning drive out of Gloucestershire it was great to be back in the big smoke and see so many old friends and meet some really really nice new ones. For one thing the congestion charge seems to have worked as it really wasnt very difficult at all to drive into the City and parking was a remarkably simple affair even if rather expensive One thing that did surprise me was that the City Gentlemen do seem to be more conservative than the customers that I have out here in Gloucestershire. Out of the 10 or so suits that were designed all of them were in either grey black or navy blue and all were pretty much cut in the same manner with more conservative make up than I had thought. They were all incredibly smart and of the finest material but was a little bit surprising ... 2010-1-13T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#52088 Well it appears that our friend of Barrington Ayre Oli Broom who we are sponsoring on his cycling to The Ashes tour. He seems to be having an amazing time and is doing extremely well as he is now in Germany although his technology seems to be failing him but do please keep an eye on him by following httpwww.cyclingtotheashes.com and do please dig deep for his fantastic causes. So keep your eyes peeled and keep watching our Wheres Oli blog posts 2009-11-6T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#52086 Tweed is something that is most commonly thought of to be worn by older Gentleman who are from the countryside well if you pick Tweed jacket the right type of tweed you can get away with wearing it at any age. Make sure that you move away from the classic green tweed and have a look at light browns and darker browns. To go for the more casual look get your tailor to cut your jacket in a slightly trendier way and slightly shorter than you normally would. Reduce the lapel width a bit add a more flamboyant lining and you will look at home in tweed with jeans as trainers as you would if you were in the countryside. Tweed it is more verstaile than you think and lasts a lifetime. 2009-11-6T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#50887 As promised our new sock blogger has just sent in his sock write up. He will be blogging about his sock experiences for Barrington Ayre so if you have any questions about your foot comfort wear please email us at infobarringtonayre.co.uk and he will endeavour to answer your questions. Mr S. is a high powered executive in London working within the fashion and retail industry so knows alot of clothing and the recent trends and fashions across the UK and Worldwide. Mr S. writes Im not someone who is content to get my socks from MampS and see them as one of those little luxuries one can have that is also a neccessity. Socks are something where one can show a bit of English quirk from the normal boring black or dark grey particularly with work dress against the majority who havent broken away from wearing the socks they had to wear at school. Alongside ties shirts and cufflinks I am always on the look out for good quality socks that will last where the elastic at the top of the sock rema... 2009-10-18T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#50474 After listening to Test Match Special over the incredible Ashes series we came upon a remarkable chap called Oli Broom httpwww.cyclingtotheashes.co.ukthecyclist.php who is cycling from London to Brisbane in time for the First Ashes Test in Australia. Cycling To The Ashes With Barrington Ayres passion for cricket and our love of supporting people who are doing something incredible worthwhile we decided to offer to make Oli a cricket blazer for him to wear when he enters The Gabba in November 2010. We will be measuring Oli up next Year due to the likelihood that he will be changing shape over the next 14 months and have his blazer made in true cricketing design so that he can enter The Gabba in true style. Cycling To The Ashes has 3 very clear aims and here they are 1. Beginning on 10 October 2009 to cycle approximately 25000km solo and unsupported from Lords Cricket Ground London to Brisbane Cricket Ground The Gabba in time to see England play Australia in the first Ashes Tes... 2009-10-12T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#50471 Well I have just returned from Brazil What a place What a vibe and what an incredible country. The size of it is simply mind Rio. An truly incredible City boggling when you look at it. The Pantanal The Wetlands where we went to spot Jaguar itself is a tiny part of Brazil but is still the size of Germany France and Belgium combined Rio is a City to behold and if you get chance you really must get out there it is great fun and the fashions were very different to over here. Firstly everyone wears flip flops all the time. Haviannas to be precise and we have come back with many pairs in many different colour combos and these colours may even make an appearance in some new clothing taht we are designing Also the suits are extremely stylish and well cut and the fabrics are divine. A very light weight cotton or linen but mixed with a number of different fabrics to create suits that dont seem to crumple as much when flying between cities as you must do to get around and seem to keep peo... 2009-10-12T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#48790 After dropping off a few shirts to a client on Saturday and then nipping into town to pick up the last few bits and pieces for our stall on Sunday at The Cirencester Polo final day we ran into Liz Hurley working on her stall in the Cirencester Farmers Market She really is extremely pretty and it is so great to see more people supporting our local area and the meat from her organic farm is really rather good She is a firm regular at the Cirencester Polo and so we are very much looking forward to catching up with her and her Husband again this Sunday where we are exhibiting.

The event was held at Englefield Cricket Club just outside Bradfield and was competed between 4 courageous teams. Each team got to play each other once and then there was the 3rd 4th Place Play Off and The Final The Barrington Ayre 6 a side team only squeezed in to 3rd place with the eventual winners Howorth Harriers taking the Trophy with the last ball of the tournament.

The best news is that upon launch we will be offering for a short while a special launch offer where the shirts will be at a special discounted price just for a short time. 2009-8-3T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#44870 Well after one of the most amazing draws in English cricket with the tail order showing the top order how to bat out to save a Test match the thoughts of a summer and other English pursuits has been going round the office here. A very good friends Wedding this weekend again brought out the Gentlemen in their morning suits which I have to say is one of my favourite looks and a truly English style. A Wedding without a Morning Suit is like a broken pencil...... pointless The English morning suit is something of style and beauty and is sonething that every Gentleman should have in their wardrobe. With this in mind we are doing a special deal on all morning suits until the end of the Ashes so if you are off to a Wedding soon and wish to look your best please get in touch to get your special offer. 2009-7-13T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#44399 Again Barrington Ayre spent a wonderful weekend at the Cotswold Show bumping into a number of our clients and spending time catching up with other local businessmen and women and sampling many great local produces The sun was shining and it really was so good to see so many of our bespoke shirts making an appearance at the Cotswold Show. We will be exhibiting at The Cirencester Polo on September 20th so please do nip down and see us and there will be some special show promotions for you to take advantage of Also keep an eye out in Cotswold Style in August as there will be some very interesting little bits and pieces 2009-7-5T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#44206 We are incredibly proud and rather excited about our fantastic new range of ready made shirts that will be arriving in the next couple of weeks These will all be made from the finest 100 cotton from the finest mills and will exude the same style class and elegance that our bespoke shirts do. The shirts will be available in a number of colours and fabrics and to mark this special launch there will be some amazing special launch deals So keep your eyes on the website over the coming weeks and grab your special price ready made shirts when they arrive 2009-7-1T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#43608 With the Wedding season in full swing we are finding that more and more of our Grooms Best Men and the rest of the wedding party are choosing rounded collars for their bespoke shirts. Despite some of our local rivals having a little pop at our so called gimmicks of having the wedding date embroided on the shirt and having the wedding colours embroided around the button holes these little personal touches that make the wearers wedding shirt even more special are proving even more popular than ever. The Grooms Wife to be spends so long picking out the perfect dress and having the day that she has always wanted it only seems fair that the Groom and his Wedding party really should make that extra bit of effort to have the best possible shirt and clothing that they can have. Our so called Gimmicks are not gimmicks at all they are personal touches that add to the quality of the shirts that we provide. Barrington Ayre use the finest quality cotton from the finest mills and have some of t... 2009-6-20T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#43260 With the summer beating down on Old Blighty again over the weekend the run of linen shirts continue. Linen shirts really are the perfect accompaniment for not only the summer but in fact all year round. The cool fabric looks incredibly smart and keeps the wearer cool during the hot days but is also a great shirt for under a jacket in the cooler months. So please do not feel that a linen shirt is only for Summer We have also been making a number of linen shirts recently with larger stiffer collars which is slightly against the norm but look fantastic and when we joined a couple of our clients in France last week for a special supper party every gentleman around the table was wearing one of our linen shirts but all in different colours and designs which really shows the versatility of this fabric. A large Chateux fine French wine incredible food and wonderful company the perfect way to spend an evening We have also just sent our first overseas suit out to Nigeria Not only are our shirt... 2009-6-14T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#42694 Barrington Ayre Shirtmaker amp Tailor are delighted to announce that they will very shortly be launchinga brand new Ready to Wear clothing range to compliment their made to measure and bespoke clothing range.

Tom Wharton Owner says Our made to measure customers are continually asking us if we can provide them with ready to wear shirts jumpers and polo shirts to compliment the made to measure clothing that we have made for them for the more casual and smart casual side of their wardrobe. So we have designed and made a wide range of beautifully crafted top quality shirts polo shirts and jumpers as well as a full range of fa... 2009-6-3T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#42520 We had a fantastic day at the polo on Saturday at Cirencester Polo Club and it was fantastic to meet so many people there. The polo was great fun and well done Marlborough for turning up at such short notice after Eton had to withdraw due to the swine flu bug. It was such a successful day that we just wanted to let everyone know that we will be having an even bigger and better stand on the 20th September in the main Members tent where you can come and chat to us about yoru sartorial needs be fitted for a suit or shirt check out our socks and jumpers and by then our new range of ready made shirts and accessory range.

We recently made... 2009-5-31T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#42350 Just a quick one to let people know that we will be at the polo in Cirencester Park on Saturday for the Eton game at a small stall near Steppes Travel. Our shirts are the this years prize for the seasons best polo player so we thought that we should show off everything that we do to our local market. So if you are nipping over to watch a spot of polo or fancy coming for a fantastic day out please pop in and see us. We will have all of our fabrics and bits and pieces with us and you shouldnt be able to miss the rather smartly dressed up tailors dummy If you do fancy popping over and have something specific in mind please let us know before hand but we will have a full range of shirt suit and clothing fabrics as well as socks and there may even be a few little teasers for our rather nice new ready to wear range and our new accessory range Very much looking forward to seeing as many of you as we can on Saturday and dont forget that it is Fathers Day soon so it is the perfect time to ge... 2009-5-27T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#42225 With the weather being so beautiful it has really been one of the most enjoyable and busy Bank Holidays that I have had for a longtime. On Saturday we nipped up to the Windrush near Bourtin on the Water for a spot of fishing on my Wifes Families stretch up there and it was so nice to see that the river was in such good condition and that there were fish all around although not many took the flies It was a great day and a fantastic way to catch up with some friends and discuss some new ideas for a new range of bespoke shirts and clothing so keep an eye out for some new exciting ranges coming very soon. Sunday was spent playing cricket against the Barbados High Commission which has been taking place for the last 45 years 2 years before Barbados was even Independent We were very honoured to have the High Commissioner himself and the Deputy High Commissioner in attendance and it was another fantastic occassion even if we didnt win Although to be fair we have only won 3 times in 45 years b... 2009-5-25T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#41897 So what sort of thing should you go for when you are getting married and want a special shirt or suit to commemorate your special day 1. Well this is something that you will hopefully do only once in your life so it is important to make the most of it. 2. This is the day that you will be photographed more than any other day in your life so you need to make sure that you look the best that you can. 3. Your Wife will have spent year sdreaming about this day and months and months finding her perfect dress so it is pure courtesy to make sure that you look the best that you can and compliment her with your clothing. 4. Stick with plain colours. The traditional colour is white and I would only suggest going away from this if you go with another plain colour like blue or pink. 5. Dont go too over the top with your collar stay with a classical look but maybe have a front fastening collar that fastens behind the tie giving you a very controlled and stylish look. 6. Why not add the date of... 2009-5-19T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#41709 Whatever you wear you can wear bespoke. Whether it is an overcoat a jacket a suit a pair of trousers a shirt or even your boxer shorts we can make them for you. Once you have had one item of clothing made for you it becomes incredibly difficult to go back to buying off the peg clothing. The fit is perfect the style is exactly what you want and you have picked the fabric cut and little extras that you have always wanted. So if you have had this done for you once can you really go back to buying something that is mass produced again Well the cricket season is in full swing and and after an extraordinary game on what appeared to be a field that had just been mown by a flymo before we played and resulted in only 79 runs between the 2 sides we had a very close friendly game on the Sunday. Yours truly took 2 catches and hit 66 and this will hopefully put me in good sted for my touring teams first game this weekend unless the weather puts pay to everything. On the subject of cricket we ca... 2009-5-16T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#40953 Well we are looking after 2 dogs this weekend as ssome of our friends are away but that will never stop the shirt and suit selling I dropped off 9 shirts on Saturday morning and promptly got asked back to measure up some suits and an overcoat. The Wedding season is also in full swing and after taking measurements and design desires for another Wedding party on Friday it is safe to say that love is well and truly in the air and our little Wedding personalisation extras like having the date of the big day embroided on the shirt is proving incredibly popular. Something else that is proving incredibly popular at the moment is the Groom having a specially designed shirt made for their Best Man and Ushers. We usually pop the Wedding date on these shirts too as well as adding their own initials. This is not only an incredibly generous gift but it is one that will allow the Wedding party to never forget their friends special day. We can also do this with suits if you want to be very g... 2009-5-3T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#40784 We have just developed a very new exciting range of Old Boy shirts. The first shirt that we have introduced into this range is our Old Wellingtonian Wellington College Shirt. The Old Wellingtonian colours are under the collar and cuff of these bespoke shirts so that you can show your loyalty to your Old School whilst wearing a beautifully crafted bespoke shirt. We can put this Old Wellingtonian fabric under any shirt so please get in touch to discuss your needs. See more photos on our Gallery 2009-4-29T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#40648 Well it is that time of year again the cricket season has started and I have rather sore legs from keeping wicket without warming up A very good friend of mine agreed to play for our village team this weekend and he is also a very good customer of Barrington Ayre. In fact he is a great fan of good stiff collared shirts and this gave rise to a discussion later that evening over a couple of quiet ciders about the pros and cons of stiff or soft collars. Stiff collars are fantastic for more formal occasions where as the softer collar is for more casual affairs. I would always suggest that you wear a stiffer collar with double cuffs however you have more freedom with your cuff selection with a casual shirt. Please feel free to give us a call to discuss your ideas and of course I will keep you up to date with my cricketing exploits I scored 42 and kept wicket this week by the way 2009-4-27T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#40324 I was out seeing a customer recently and his colleague was in his office whilst I was measuring him up for a couple more shirts and a suit. Whilst this was going on the question of why you should have your clothes made for you came up Personally I think that since you are wearing your clothes every day you really should make sure that they fit correctly and since first impressions count so much now a days you really should make sure that you make the best impression possible and when your clothes are beautifully made for you you will certainly make an impression. My customer who has had all of his clothing made with us said that it makes him feel better and more confident. He said that becasue he knows that his shirts and suits fits properly he is confident in the way that he looks and feels incredibly relaxed and never has to worry about his appearance.

I have also had the privelage of being able to watch whilst writing this brochure a chap rebuild a large section of one of our Cotswold Dry Stone Walls. I have to say that it is truly amazing how much skill and precision it takes and it reminded me of how lucky we are to still have such trades and skills around in this day and age. The patience skill and designed actually reminded me rather a lot of tailoring Easter is actually a very special time for me as it marks the last service that I ever sung as a Westminster Abbey Choir Boy all those years ago.

Thinus played 18 times for South Africa and has always had a problem finding shirts that fit properly due to his sheer size. So after hearing about Barrington Ayre through another one of our customers we popped over to fit him up for a couple of shirts including one for his forthcoming wedding We will be sure to pop up some photos of Thinus in his shirt and we will also be following his rugby when he returns to Japan. 2009-4-5T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#39029 Well you can now order our bespoke shirts directly from our website just click here and you are just steps away from designing your perfect bespoke shirt Or as always give us a call to book yoru appointment 2009-3-31T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#38853 It has been another extremely busy week amp I was having a lovely long chat with one of our customers mid way through the week. We were chatting about how much enjoyment there is not only having made to measure clothing made for you but also in the enjoyment that we take from making it We came to the conclusion that it is one of lifes little pleasures having clothing made for you and not only do you have a great time having it made you also carry that feeling with you everytime you wear it. The suits that we have in production at the moment show the multitude of creative freedom you really do have when you your suits made for you. Some are very classical with beautiful herringbone fabrics amp others are far more modern with sharp lines amp extremely vibrant linings. There are also a couple of rather fun amp exciting little extras that eachsuit has but we are not giong to give away our secrets on the blog so please give us a call to discuss them 2009-3-28T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#38559 We have just got back from the Worcester versus Gloucester rugby match at Worcester and although it was a shocking result for Gloucester especially after we had played the whole game in the Worcester half it was a fantastic day out and we met some fantastic people. We were very kindly invited by one of the Directors of English Mutual who are one of our most regular amp favourite customers and to join them amp a number of their best clients at such a great event was a real privilege. In fact one of their Directors is a great experimentor with his bespoke shirts. He loves the different fabrics under his collar amp cuffs amp some of the shirts that we have made for him with the stitching matching the contrasting fabrics have been some of the best amp most pleasurable shirts that we have made.

So what we came up with was that we made his bespoke shirts with the button hole stitching in the same colour as the lining of his suit. This is a fantastically subtle but very stylish little touch amp we will be suggested this to a few more of our customers in the future After having to make 13 bespoke shirts for a couple of clients in under 2 weeks for a special do amp having a number of suit appointments as well as shipping out an incredible number of socks all over the World this really has been an extremely busy week for us amp the fine bottle of wine that has just been opened from Hamilton Yorke wine merchants has never been more welcome. please keep an eye out for some incredible announcements that we will be making over the next couple of weeks and we will keep you abreast of the exciting goings on right here on our web... 2009-3-13T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#37840 well it is that time of year again amp we were delighted to attend our first Point to Point meet of the season with an afternoon out at The Duke of Beauforts Hunt Point to Point at Didmarton.

We have been in London a number of days this week measuring a vast number of clients who are getting their orders in before Christmas and I have to say that Remembrance Day is seemingly taking hold of people far more than I have ever seen before.

It was a fantastic moment and after observing the 2 minutes silence this morning I was very proud to be British.

With this question in mind I decided to tell everyone about our shirts and our fabrics.Firstly all of our bespoke shirts are made in France not out in the Far East. Our manufacturing department is run by people who have been in the business for years and the shirts are made by some of the finest seamstresses in Europe.Secondly all of our fabrics are the finest Egyptian cotton and are all made in Italy the finest manufacturer of cotton in The World.So why are our shirts so much cheaper than our competitors the simple answer is that we do not add as large a mark up on our shirts. Barrington Ayres whole philosophy is that we believe that everyone should have the right to wear bespoke clothing if ... 2008-8-3T00:00:00Z http://www.barringtonayre.co.uk/page28.htm#27256 We are delighted to announce that this week saw us successfully deliver a number of our bespoke shirts to our first International customer all the way from Cape Town South Africa.
