In our efforts to bring the finest European tailoring to South Asia we are pleased to announce our collaboration with one of the best European fabric mills, Dormeuil.
A mill steeped in history dating back to 1842 when the founder Dormeuil Frères started weaving cloth in England specifically for French tailors.
Picture
For 170 years, The House of Dormeuil has developed timeless and iconic fabrics that have cemented the mills reputation across all five continents.
Keeping innovation at the forefront of their fabric weaving Dormeuil is second to none for lighter weight summer suiting fabrics.

Below are some of our top picks, from this luxury mill. All are now available for bespoke orders with Vanguard Bepsoke.

Tropical amadeus

A beautifully light-weight & extra-fine cloth with a crisp drape the Tropical Amadeus range tailors into a modern, comfortable & sharp summer suit for tropical climates.
With over 60 colours & designs to choose from ranging from the classics to modern. This range lends itself more towards suits rather than separates. At just 7.5Oz/220gms it will keep you cool in tropical summers.

A bespoke suit in a Tropical Amadeus is 55k INR.

Dorsilk

This range is pure luxury. Combining the sturdiness of wool with the lustre of silk in a range of 60 modern colours and patterns. this range also features a few designs in woool/silk/linen blend.

New fabric range launch - peace silk suiting

We are thrilled to introduce our exclusive range of Peace silk, specially woven by Vanguard in a sumptuous, soft casual suiting cloth, for men and women.

Working with a group of weavers in Assam, we have developed our exclusive range of suiting woven from 100% authentic peace silk. We are launching this cloth in 3 gorgeous colourways, indigo, walnut brown and grey.

For those who don't know, Peace silk (also known Ahimsa Silk) is silk derived from a non-violent and humane method of harvesting and breeding silkworms. In comparison to traditional method of killing the larvae, this method allows completion of the metamorphosis of the silkworm to the butterfly allowing the moth to live. Hence based on Mahatma Gandhi's and religious philosophies of non-violence, peace silk is made in the stringent social and environmental standards in Assam.
A form of wild silk, these mostly come from the Tussah or Tassar silk moth. The thread of the Tussahide spinner is coarser and uneven, giving our cloths a gorgeous slub effect similar to linen cloths. in comparison of the mulberry silk moth. Woven with a white weft and naturally dyed warp threads gives this fabric a denim outlook.

All the above processes gives peace silk a lightweight, soft, sumptuous and effortlessly elegant look which makes it a fantastic luxury fabric for the Asian subcontinent weather and occasions.

A blazer or bandhgala in these fabric is 20k INR,/24k BDT & a 2 piece suit for 30k INR/36k BDT. Featured here a skirt suit this fabric would tailor well for men and women alike. The denim feel and look of this fabric combined with the soft and sumptuous feel of the cloth will hit the smart/casual tailored look on the head.

nearly our youngest customer!

One of our Delhi patron's 3 year old son had a birthday pending, after two years of lockdowns his parent's wanted to make his birthday special and enlisted the help of Vanguard to do so.
We measured him 4 days before his big day and worked round the clock to create something he would love.

Hand crafting a shirt in with a Peppa pig print, a waistcoat in red linen and a tiny version of Vanguards super comfy "lockdown pants" in black. This little chap was very happy with his ensemble and we think he looks smashing!

Whenever we make kids tailoring we leave as much excess fabric as possible in all the seams, this little guy can grow another 6 inches and we can easily adjust his ensemble so it fits him perfectly.

In the cutting room today...

We are putting the finishing touches to one of our valued patron's 3 new blazers.

This dapper fellow opted for 3 different jackets in Harris tweed, Scottish Tartan & an Irish linen/Italian Silk blend.
Bold & fun jackets make great additions to the wardrobe for those occasions you want to look effortlessly cool and make a perfectly tailored statement.

Vanguard for doggies!

Here at Vanguard we love our 4 legged friends & our founder Mighel recently added a gorgeous Dachshund to his family. Grace often visits the Vanguard workshop and with winter not abating we knocked up a few coats to keep this gorgeous little pup warm.
Made in bias cut Scottish Tartan's we think she looks rather dashing in her Vanguard creations.

#dashingmasks4india update!

Picture
Our #dashingmasks4india campaign continues to go from strength to strength. We have now crossed sales of over 17,000 masks & donated over 90,000 meals to those affected by Covid-19. We are funding 3 main projects in Delhi & Mumbai. One meals on wheels van taking lunches to slum areas in Delhi. A soup kitchen outside a large hospital in a poorer area of Delhi. An NGO project visiting slum kids in Mumbai, giving them not just lunch but also some basic classes
It's a little humbling to see just how much we have achieved so far and we will continue to make our masks in this social enterprise for as long as they are needed. We are really hoping we can cross the 1 lakh (100,000) milestone by the end of 2020, now that would be something!

With Christmas just around the corner how about some fun festive masks? Hop over to our Etsy store to snap yours up today!
