STITCHED GM Ricci Lopez reflects on his spring 2015 vacation to the world’s bespoke suit capital.

While on a recent trip to London I had the pleasure of being surrounded by superb and sophisticated fashion. I was bombarded with inspiration just stepping out of the door of my historic hotel, Hotel Russell, built in the late 1800s. There is simply something special about gentlemanly British fashion. While styles range from classic to dandy, the timeless Alexander McQueen said it best, “British fashion is self confident and fearless. It refuses to bow to commerce, thus generating a constant flow of new ideas whilst drawing in British heritage.”

At STITCHED we have been greatly inspired by Savile Row, British fashion, and the Bespoke lifestyle. Being on Savile Row, for me, was a surreal experience because it embodies what we do inside of our Las Vegas haberdashery. Our Bespoke lounge caters to our clients’ most customizable wants and needs. We provide unparalleled attention to detail with our measurements and our consultative process. Peeking through the windows of the underground tailors at work on Savile Row was like looking into our own tailor shop. Our master tailors, too, have window views – of Las Vegas Boulevard, that is. When our clients tell us that our Haberdashery reminds them of Savile Row; I now know this to be true.
