"in praise of savile row"

BAR savile row.jpg

The Guardian, one of the big London newspapers, recently wrote a leader about Savile Row:

As one master tailor told the Financial Times this week, "These people aren't tailors - they're outfitters," - an important distinction. Few of us may be able to afford a Savile Row suit but it is important somehow to know that, if we had the money and inclination, we could. Right now, London's historic master tailors are only hanging on by a thread. But they surely deserve to survive.
