In this guide

A Savile Row suit is one of the few luxury purchases with a real, published starting price. Most established houses now start a bespoke two-piece at between about $6,600 and $9,900, and the things that move the final bill are easy to list: the house, the fabric, the number of garments and whether you pay UK VAT. Below are the latest published figures, converted to dollars, with what each price buys and how to get an accurate quote.

How much does a Savile Row suit cost in 2026?

A bespoke two-piece suit from an established Savile Row house starts at about $6,600 to $9,900 in 2026. Huntsman publishes the highest starting price among the established houses below, 7,500 pounds or about $9,900, while Davies & Son and Gieves & Hawkes published the lowest of those, about $6,600 to $6,700. Where a house's own website gives a 2026 price we use it; otherwise we use the starting prices published for each house in a December 2025 guide to the street.

Starting prices for a bespoke two-piece at ten established houses: most cluster between about $8,000 and $9,100.

The gap between houses is smaller than the gap between cuts. A soft, draped coat and a sharp, structured one can cost almost the same, so choose the silhouette first and compare prices second. Our guide to Savile Row house styles shows how different the houses look.

What is included in a Savile Row bespoke price?

The starting price buys a complete two-piece suit: a jacket and one pair of trousers, cut from a paper pattern drafted for you and fitted on your body. Most of the money pays for skilled hours, not materials.

  • A personal paper pattern, drafted by a cutter from your measurements and posture and kept on file for future orders.
  • Two to four fittings, starting with a baste: a loosely tacked shell the cutter can take apart and recut.
  • Hand work. Norton & Sons says one suit takes 60 to 80 hours and up to eleven craftsmen. The Savile Row Bespoke Association's standard calls for typically at least 50 hours of hand work in a two-piece.
  • A floating canvas chest shaped by hand, with hand-sewn buttonholes and a hand-set collar.
  • A choice of fabric from the house's standard books. Association members must offer at least 2,000 fabrics.
  • Aftercare. Association members must offer sponging, pressing, repairs and button matching. Ask which services are free.

Does a Savile Row suit price include VAT?

Yes, for UK buyers. Prices to private customers in the UK include 20% VAT. Some houses show both figures: Edward Sexton lists its house bespoke suit at 6,600 pounds including VAT and 5,500 pounds before it, about $8,800 and $7,300.

If you live outside the UK, you can often buy without VAT, but usually only when the house sends the suit to you. Norton & Sons, for example, refunds VAT when a garment is shipped directly to an address outside the UK, after you confirm you have received it, and the claim must be completed within three months of the first payment. Great Britain ended VAT-free shopping for visitors who carry goods home in January 2021, so a suit you collect in London and pack in your luggage normally includes VAT.

What extras raise the price of a Savile Row suit?

Three things move the bill most: the fabric, extra garments and the type of garment. Two firms that publish detailed price lists show the scale.

How choices change the price: published examples (2026)
ChoicePublished exampleEffect on price
FabricCad & The Dandy two-piece, cheapest to dearest fabric band1,800 to 3,600 pounds, about $2,400 to $4,800: the fabric doubles the price
WaistcoatCad & The Dandy three-piece against the two-pieceAbout $570 to $1,100 more (430 to 830 pounds)
Dinner suitCad & The Dandy dinner suit against the two-pieceAbout $400 to $900 more (300 to 700 pounds)
Extra trousersNorton & Sons separate trousersFrom about $2,300 (1,760 pounds, VAT included)
Jacket onlyNorton & Sons bespoke jacketFrom about $6,400 (4,840 pounds, VAT included)

From each firm's published 2026 prices, converted at about $1.33 to the pound and rounded.

Premium fabrics such as cashmere, very fine Super numbers and rare fibers carry the biggest premiums; see Super numbers explained before you pay for one. A second pair of trousers is the most useful extra for a suit you will wear often, because trousers wear out before jackets.

How many fittings does a Savile Row suit need?

A first Savile Row suit needs two to four fittings over about 8 to 16 weeks. Huntsman asks for at least three; Edward Sexton schedules three, a baste, a forward and a final; Henry Poole says new customers need two to three. Later suits need fewer fittings because the house keeps your pattern.

Fittings and timelines published by the houses
HouseFittings for a first suitTypical time
HuntsmanAt least 3About 14 to 16 weeks

From the houses' own information. Fittings held at trunk shows abroad stretch the timeline to several months.

At the baste fitting the jacket is only tacked together, so the cutter can take it apart and recut the pattern.

Our guide to bespoke fittings explained describes what happens at each stage. If you live abroad, several houses hold fittings on visits to your city; see Savile Row trunk shows.

What does made-to-measure cost on Savile Row?

Made-to-measure from a Savile Row house costs about $1,500 to $4,700 in 2026. It adjusts a house pattern to your measurements instead of drafting a new one, usually with one or two fittings, and it is often made outside the house's own workroom.

Between made-to-measure and house bespoke sits lower-priced bespoke. Edward Sexton's Offshore Bespoke, cut from a personal pattern and made outside the house's London workroom, starts at 2,950 pounds including VAT, about $3,900, with two fittings. Cad & The Dandy's bespoke two-piece starts at 1,800 pounds, about $2,400.

Savile Row prices by tier, 2026: house bespoke starts at roughly four times the cheapest made-to-measure.

For how these tiers differ in pattern, hand work and fit, read bespoke vs made-to-measure.

Is there a cheaper way to buy Savile Row bespoke?

Yes, within limits. Three routes cost less than a suit from an established house:

  • Lower-priced bespoke. Cad & The Dandy, one of the Row's younger firms, starts at about $2,400 for a two-piece in its entry fabrics.
  • Offshore or hybrid bespoke. A pattern cut on the Row and a suit made elsewhere, such as Edward Sexton's Offshore Bespoke from about $3,900.
  • The house's own made-to-measure, from about $1,500, if your figure is close to standard and you like the house's cut.

Ordering at a trunk show abroad does not usually save money: visiting houses generally charge at least their London price. The real saving for overseas buyers is VAT, and only when the suit is exported by the house.

Why does a Savile Row suit cost so much?

A Savile Row suit costs what it does because of hours, not fabric. A two-piece passes through a cutter, a coatmaker, a trouser maker and a finisher, often in Mayfair workrooms with Mayfair rents, and a house also pays for apprentices it will train for years. Our guide to why bespoke suits are expensive breaks the hours down.

How to get an accurate Savile Row quote

Questions to ask before you pay a deposit

  • Is the price for a two-piece or a three-piece, and which fabric books does it cover?
  • Does the price include 20% VAT, and can VAT be removed if the suit is shipped abroad?
  • How many fittings are included, and can they take place at a trunk show?
  • How much is the deposit, and when is the balance due?
  • What does a second pair of trousers cost?
  • Which aftercare services are free, and for how long?
  • Will later suits cost the same once your pattern exists?

Then choose the house by its cut. Our ranking of the 10 best tailors in London compares the houses, and our guide to visiting Savile Row explains how to book a first consultation.

Questions people ask

What is the cheapest Savile Row suit?

Among firms on and around Savile Row, Cad & The Dandy publishes one of the lowest bespoke prices, from 1,800 pounds or about $2,400 for a two-piece in 2026. Among the long-established houses, Davies & Son and Gieves & Hawkes published the lowest starting prices in December 2025, about $6,600 to $6,700. Made-to-measure from Row houses starts lower still, at about $1,500.

How much is a Huntsman suit?

Huntsman publishes its bespoke price: a two-piece suit starts at 7,500 pounds, about $9,900 at late October 2026 exchange rates, for men or women. The house asks for a minimum of three fittings. Its made-to-measure suits start at about $4,700.

Is a Savile Row suit cheaper without VAT?

Yes, by one sixth of the VAT-inclusive price, but usually only if the house ships the suit to an address outside the UK. Visitors can no longer claim VAT back at a British airport on goods they carry home, a scheme that ended in January 2021. Import duty and taxes in your own country then apply.

How long does it take to make a Savile Row suit?

A first Savile Row suit usually takes about 8 to 16 weeks with two to four fittings. Norton & Sons quotes 12 to 15 weeks and Dege & Skinner about 12 weeks. Fittings held at trunk shows abroad stretch that to several months.

Does a Savile Row starting price include a waistcoat?

No. A Savile Row starting price is for a two-piece suit: a jacket and one pair of trousers. At Cad & The Dandy a three-piece costs about $570 to $1,100 more than a two-piece, depending on the fabric, and other houses price waistcoats separately on request.

Is it cheaper to order a Savile Row suit in London or at a trunk show?

The suit itself rarely costs less at a trunk show, because visiting houses generally charge at least their London price. Overseas clients can often have UK VAT removed when the finished suit is shipped to them, but they then pay import duty at home. In London you save on waiting time, not on price.

How much does a made-to-measure suit cost on Savile Row?

Made-to-measure from Savile Row houses starts at about $1,500 to $4,700 in 2026. Gieves & Hawkes published one of the lowest starting prices, about $1,500, and Huntsman one of the highest, about $4,700. It uses an adjusted house pattern with one or two fittings.
