The tremendous demand for bespoke British tailoring was underlined this week by the launch of The Bespoke Apprentice website at the Masons Arms, one of the Savile Row community's favourite local hostelries.

An initiative which is generously supported by CAPITB Trust, the website serves as the definitive resource for anyone wishing to learn the art of bespoke tailoring at the hands of real masters.

The Bespoke Apprentice includes a comprehensive list of recommended tailoring courses throughout the UK as well as a number of fascinating profiles of apprentices currently working on Savile Row and in the West End, in which they recount how they secured their positions and the progress they have made to date.

And, importantly, it includes information for tailoring houses on how to employ apprentices.
