"Friends with benefits" - promotion extended

We all have friends that we 'benefit’ and enrich our lives from. You would ask a friend to help you pick out an outfit for an important day or if you had to pick a restaurant, wouldn’t you go by the recommendation of a friend rather than a flashy advertisement? The reason we do this is the trust we hold in our friends and loved ones.

So if you love our impeccable tailoring and trust us, you can help us get the ‘Vanguard Bespoke’ word out. As a special thank you, for every recommendation passed on (and we receive an order for a bespoke suit) you will receive a bespoke chino or a bespoke shirt from our luxury range, absolutely free!

We have been running this promotion for the past three months and have given away over 50 rewards to date. To show our ongoing appreciation for you; our valued patrons, we are extending this promotion until the end of November.

Everyone ‘benefits’, hence the title! :-)
There is no better advertisement than a recommendation & our happy patrons wearing more Vanguard Bespoke creations than before.

In our ongoing ending quest to curate and bring the best tailoring fabric library to our customers, we are very excited to start carrying some books from another UK mill, Bateman & Ogden.

Based in the Midlands of the UK, Bateman & Ogden have been making exquisite suitings since 1881. Exclusively made in some of the finest textile mills of Yorkshire, Bateman & Ogden offer you opulent fabrics with class, elegance and style. Blending traditional favourites with innovative new designs, they offer a vast array of classic and contemporary ranges. Vanguard will be carrying 12 of their top ranges, including super 160 cloths, premium blends such as silk, linen & mohair.

One that we are most excited about is the Boating Stripe range.

The term blazer was born in 1825 at the Lady Margaret Boat Club in 1825; the rowing club of St. John's College in Cambridge. The Lady Margaret club jackets were termed blazers because of the bright red cloth used in the original design (blaze-er).

The term blazer survived the original red coat and went on to be created in a multitude of colours and stripes; known as
boating stripes. These stripes since have come to be associated with sporting events and specific boating clubs.

In the 1960's the boating blazer (with a few notable modifications) became synonymous with the "Mod" look. From the Ivy league of America to Carnaby Street in London, the Mod's modified the boating blazer to a 3 button affair, ditched the gold buttons, club crest patches and added a ticket pocket to the right side.

Nowadays, for the traditional gentleman these make great blazers for sporting events such as regattas and cricket matches. For the more fashion-savvy, these would make statements pieces that can easily be teamed up with chinos or jeans.
For women especially these would make excellent business and semi-formal dress. These striking stripes would make a bold statement and the stripes would add an elongating appearance.
