A wedding suit that's entirely your own
Finding a wedding suit that actually fits can be harder than it should be. Ready-to-wear ranges for women are often an afterthought: a handful of styles, a narrow size run, and a fit that's close but never quite right.
At Hemingway, that isn't a problem you have to work around. Your wedding suit is cut and fitted specifically for you: your proportions, your style, the day you're stepping into and the way you want to look when you turn to face the room.
There is no bridal collection to choose from and no assumption about what a woman's wedding suit should look like. Toby works with you personally, bringing decades of tailoring experience to every decision, from the first conversation and selection of cloth to the smallest finishing detail.
The result is unmistakably yours. Beautifully cut, exceptionally fitted and made with the quiet confidence that only proper tailoring can give you.
Creating your wedding suit
Style
Trouser suit or skirt suit. A tailored two-piece with wide-leg trousers, a fitted skirt suit for a more traditional silhouette, or a three-piece with a waistcoat for something with real presence. The right cloth, colour and cut depend on the setting, the season and, above all, how you want to look and feel. Toby will guide you through the possibilities, using his experience to shape a look that feels entirely your own.
Bespoke or made-to-measure
Bespoke or made-to-measure
For the ultimate expression of individual tailoring, bespoke begins with a pattern created exclusively for you and is refined through a series of fittings. Made-to-measure offers a different route to an exceptional fit, adapting an established pattern to your measurements, proportions and chosen details. Toby will talk you through both approaches and recommend the one that best suits you, your wedding and the way you want the finished suit to feel.

Your wedding party
Bridesmaids, the mother of the bride, or a wedding party who'd all rather be in tailoring than dresses: Toby can create a considered look across the whole group while ensuring you remain unmistakably the one getting married.

Tailoring for your wedding party
No two brides should look as though they've been dressed from a formula. Whether Toby is tailoring for a bride marrying a bride, a wedding party in matching trouser suits, or the mother of the bride alongside a more traditional dress code, each person is considered individually while the party works beautifully as a whole.
"Five star service, absolutely beautiful suit. Toby is very talented and I am very pleased with the bespoke service. Attention to detail and your satisfaction as a customer is paramount which means that it is not just tailoring, it is an experience to enjoy designing your suit. Also as a woman it is very hard to find a tailor with the necessary skills. I am very happy with the product. I would recommend and will return if I require anymore suits or coats."
