Formalwear is the pinnacle of menswear and formal occasions deserve more than off-the-peg. It’s where elegance is non-negotiable, detail is everything, and the difference between fine and flawless lies in cloth, cut and the confidence these bring.
At Tasker & Shaw, we believe formalwear should be nothing less than impeccable. Whether it’s a wedding, a black tie affair, a day at the races or an occasion where anything less than your best simply won’t do, this is where our made-to-measure formalwear steps in and earns its stripes (or, more often, its satin lapels).
"With James' guidance and honesty I was able to create a very individual suit. I have found my 'go to' tailor for everything sartorial."

Treating formalwear with the respect it deserves means choosing the right cloth, refined, luxurious, and built to hold its shape. It means getting the fit absolutely spot on, not just good-for-the-hire-shop, but built-for-you. It means walking into a room and knowing your tailoring is working just as hard as you are.
Made-to-measure formalwear is a cut above because it’s made to last. Not just for the moment, but for the long run. Crafted with the finest materials and time-honoured construction, it will stand up to wear, travel, and time. And when the style is timeless, it never needs reinventing.
Whether it’s your first foray into evening wear or the final piece in a well-tailored wardrobe, we’ll ensure your formalwear is as sharp as the occasion demands—and just as unforgettable.
