Bespoke, custom, personalize, call it what you will, but it’s a term I think of when talking about suits, shirts, and ties, and NOT when I’m talking about a hoodie. House of Billiam is changing that, by combining classic British suiting fabric with decidedly un-suit like clothes. The result is a bespoke hoodie – handmade, made-to-measure, and made from beautiful fabric.
Sure, you’ll pay a little more for this hoodie (prices start at about £150, free delivery), but there are lots of great reasons to buy an original:
- You get to collaborate with the UK fashion house to design a one-of-a-kind fashion statement
- Extensive selection of both outer and inner fabrics means you get exactly what you want, and its reversible, too
- Fabrics come in limited amounts, further ensuring your choice will be one-of-a-kind
- Lined pockets with a personalize label
- Made for your personal measurements, not a one size fits all form
- Made by hand in England, to your specifications
- Available for men and women
A bespoke hoodie from House of Billiam will take about three weeks to produce after order is confirmed.
I’m coveting one myself, and trying to decide if I should make the purchase. What do you think? Do you love these?
