Holland & Sherry Cloth
With such a wide variety of fabrics available, knowing where to start can be daunting. Colour, pattern and fabric composition all have to be considered.
British cloth still holds a high reputation all over the world and Holland & Sherry is no exception.
This video takes a look at Holland and Sherry in Peebles & Saville Row.

BBC Landward
BBC Landward Clip Link
This is a BBC video clip about us Making a Tweed Jacket for Dougie Vipond (the drummer from Deacon Blue)
Lovat Mill of Hawick designed this beautiful tweed specially for the BBC Landward Programme. We were asked to make and fit a jacket for Dougie to wear at the Highland Show. Dougie ended up with a garment entirely made in Scotland.

Gold Medal winning Jacket
Gold Medal Winning Jacket Link
This a link to a picture of the jacket we made for the Tailor & Cutter Competition in 1954.
The Jacket was entirely made by hand with no machine work and took over a month to make.
We tried entering the provincial class a few times to no avail, we then made this jacket to enter the open class against all the West End tailors and won The Keith and Henderson Cup!
We believe we are the only Scottish firm to win Gold.
