Customer Designed 100% Bespoke Suit Lengths Made by William Halstead - Number 1




New Bespoke Fabrics - Made by William Halstead

I am delighted to inform you that J. H. Cutler is now offering new truly bespoke fabrics by William Halstead exclusivley in Australia designed to your specific requirements that you can order for your next bespoke suit.

You can personally design the fabric, with John's input if required, to feature any colour or combination of colours, any pattern and any weight.

We will then hand produce the fabric on a wooden 100-year-old sample loom at the Bradford mill in West Yorkshire, England.  A town that has been producing woollen fabrics since the 18th century. It’s the old style wooden loom that allows us to produce the relatively small quantity required for an individual suit.

Bespoke fabrics such as this have featured in Hollywood blockbusters, fashion catwalks and celebrity fashion shoots.

An esteemed client of John's for many years standing has already ordered William Halstead's first length of bespoke fabric that is currently awaiting delivery.

Each Suit length is limited edition and comes numbered with a certificate of authenticity and special woven label inside the presentation gift box. 

We will keep you informed on progress, but if you would like more details on this exciting development exclusively from John H Cutler in Australia please call John on 02 9232 7122. Or for the rest of the world contact Sales@WilliamHalstead.co.uk

Milano Unica - Ideabiella September 2011


Milano Unica is the biggest show of the year for William Halstead and we are proud to exhibit at Ideabiella in February and September. This season we were particularly busy at the show seeing roughly 60 top customers from around the globe.

We share our stand with our sister company Joshua Ellis http://www.joshuaellis.co.uk/

The collection was well received and in particular our Winter Mohair flannels, Coatings and new stock service all Wool “British Classic” bunch to add to our range, and our vintage looks in the suiting collection. All of which can be viewed at our website http://www.williamhalstead.co.uk/

We were happy to see new customers from Russia and China and happy as always to see our existing customers that come back to see us time and time again. The quality of customers at the show is particularly appealing to William Halstead and this is why we feel that this show is better for us to exhibit at rather than Premier Vision in Paris.

We are now busy getting our priority selections out to customers and look forward to our agents in Italy, Japan, Korea, Russia, Singapore, Hong Kong/China  showing this seasons collections around the marketplace.

Munich Fabric Start September 2011

Munich Fabric Start in Germany was the first show for William Halstead this season. Our representative Jane Cook attended the show with our German contact Matthias.

William Halstead are pleased to announce that we have have officially appointed a new agent in Germany named Ivo Voehringer who will also be looking after Austria, Belgium, The Netherlands and Switzerland for us. His details will appear on our website http://www.williamhalstead.co.uk/ in the near future.

We saw many customers from all corners of Europe and our presence at the show is going from strength to strength and is helping build solid relationships with new and old customers.
With the launch of our new stock service bunch "British Classic" later this month and our brand new Travel suit range coming in November this was an exciting prospect to deliver at the show. For more information visit our website http://www.williamhalstead.co.uk/

Although Munich Start is not as popular as Premier Vision Paris or Milano Unica for William Halstead it is an important show as we can meet many customers from smaller markets in Europe who don't travel to the bigger shows in Italy or Paris. This is our third year at Munich start and we hope to continue to grow our business and presence in Europe continuing to exhibit at this show.

We are busy now preparing our selections to send out to the customers and are eager for Ivo to start showing the collection around market.
