Reviews of Alexandra Wood Bespoke

C. H.

I have been using Alexandra’s services for little under a year and can’t speak highly enough of the whole experience. Alexandra offers a unique approach to mens styling and tailoring, her approach is welcoming and engaging. The quality of advice and end product is second to none. I am already looking forward to my next visit and would not hesitate to recommend to anyone who wants to improve their wardrobe.

Wanted to say thank you to Alexandra for a brilliant selection of men's clothing. After two years of lockdown when the only clothes I seem to have bought were a couple of fleeces, I was in the market for a new shirt and jacket. Unfortunately Bishop's Stortford is not well served for original quality menswear. Or so I thought until I walked through the door of the store in Wind Hill. I could have bought at least five shirts that took my fancy and each one with a matching jacket (perhaps I will next time). Alexandra has the skill of communicating her wide knowledge of her range and the big plus is that all the clothing is made from natural fibres, nothing artificial at all. I am heartened to know that I do not now have to travel to the West End (and pay West End prices) to be ahead of the fashion and will certainly be returning to Alexandra's where the quality items are sensibly priced and the customer care is first-rate. Highly recommended.

Perfection! Alexandra tailored the three piece wedding suit and tailored shirts for me and my best man. From the beginning, we were made to feel comfortable, welcome and relaxed, unlike in some tailors. Alexandra was patient, polite and understood what we were looking for without overwhelming or complicating things for us. She is clearly very experienced and knowledgeable. The quality of the material and the fit was unlike anything I had worn before and I felt the best I had ever felt in a set of clothes, which was very important on my wedding day. The Bishops Stortford shop is stylish and we never felt rushed there. I’d recommend Alexandra and the team to anybody looking for casual or formal tailoring, they won’t disappoint!

Came to Alexandra's BS store on a recommendation from a family friend. I wanted the Savill Rowe experience without the bother of commuting into the City. The store is stylish and Alexandra put me at ease straight away and... made me feel special. I wanted a M2M wedding tuxedo that would make me look like James Bond on my big day and I wanted the unique experience of going to a tailor and receiving the special treatment. Every appointment was great. Alexandra was warm, inviting and clearly has a very keen eye for detail. My suit was immaculate, fitted like a glove and I'm pretty sure I can say I almost upstaged the bride. Almost. I got so many compliments on the suit and can't wait to wear it again. Actually, I enjoyed the experience so much I have my eye on one of her blue corporate suits I tried on at my first sitting which looked so good I didn't want to take it off! Just don't tell my new wife how much it costs ;-) shhhhhh

Following lockdown, I wanted to treat myself and get a made to measure suit. Looking through other tailors' websites they all seen rather 'old school' and traditional. Definitely not what I was looking for. Then I discovered Alexanra. Her website was clean, fresh and modern. When I finally met Alexandra, she did not disappoint and steered me in the right direction in a very relaxed and friendly manner. After a couple of fittings, I received my new suit which looks, and feels, great. I can see that I will be visiting Alexandra in the future. A highlight of the whole process was going for a fitting on a very hot day and being served mini ice-creams when I arrived!

J. &. L. N.

The experience at this tailor's is exceptional. I had Alexandra make me a made to measure suit for my wedding, and I am so pleased with it. Alexandra was excellent in the consultation helping chose fabrics and style to suit me and the wedding. When I tried on the finished suit it was perfect and made me feel $1M. I highly recommend and I will be back again in the future.

C. B.

The minute you slip on any of the beautiful jackets or shirts designed and made Alexandra Wood you know right away what you have been missing. My jackets now fit like a glove, they look stylish and make me feel great wearing them. I never stop being thrilled at the lovely compliments I get for Alexandra's shirts when I wear them. Alexandra has a thoughtful and professional but friendly way of spending time with me, always making sure everything I have is just right and naturally she has a great eye for not only my size, but for what will and then in fact does look great on me.

d. c.

Fantastic experience and customer service from start to finish. Alexandra really understands how to creat a suit the makes you feel as a good suit should “Amazing”.

G. S.

The suit that Alex made for me was my first 'made to measure' experience and thanks to her I now have a flavour for it. Our first meeting was to decide on fabric and style. Alex has a knack of knowing what you want before you do. She can recognise in your body shape and personal style what is missing and then gently coax you over any small barriers to pattern and colour that you might have gone into the consultation with. The first fitting dispelled any doubt I might have had about 'our' choices. And with just a few minor alterations needed, I now own the most comfortable and smart piece of clothing I've ever worn. I will be back.

I was looking for a tailor made 3-piece suit for my wedding. After a bit of Google searching of tailors I found Alexandra's website and some glowing reviews from previous customers and I decided that I'd try her first.. and I'm SO GLAD that I did! The whole process was easy, friendly & fun. Alexandra offered her advice and suggestions whilst letting me home-in on the style that I was looking for. The result was a 3-piece suit that would make James Bond jealous! I cannot wait to wear it in just a few weeks time. Alexandra also made 2 custom-made shirts for me for the big day (well worth the little extra cost). The level of service & the quality of the finished products was outstanding & actually cost far less than I was expecting to pay at the other Savile Row tailors I initially looked at... THANK YOU ALEXANDRA!

T. M.

Was greeted by Alexandra who is charming and professional in her manner. Makes you feel at ease while gently guiding you through your choices of fabrics.My first MTM suit for my son's wedding. Tried on a sample suit which felt great. Cant wait for my first fitting.

T. P.

Alexandra Wood made me the greatest suits I have ever owned in my life. They are beautiful , they will last me. Lifetime and they make me feel like the man I was Always meant to be. I love Alexandra - she is a genius. If you are looking for the clothes you should have been wearing all along - Alexandra Wood. I can’t recommend her highly enough. Tony Parsons

D. A.

Cannot recommend Alex highly enough. I love her designs and initially enquired about a three-piece suit. I was made to feel instantly welcome (but not pressured) and she herself is friendly, funny, honest and, of course, very talented. Her eye for what does (and doesn’t) work for individual tastes is brilliant and advises accordingly, while the shop is a very calming space. Will always continue to shop here.

R. R.

I have a lovely well-fitting charcoal suit by Alexandra which I've been wearing at every opportunity over the last year. She has a wonderful charming and calm demeanour, explaining everything and answering questions as she measures you up in a comfortable environment. She has a whole range of colours and styles for both the external and the lining of the suit, and has an eye for which suit you best. Previous suits I'd bought 'off the shelf' had often worn or become tatty but this still looks new. Extremely friendly and reliable, I will definitely be returning for my next suit.

J. B.

I could cheerfully spend all day here even though buying bespoke clothes is not my idea of a great day out. Alexandra's gentle approach is delightful and the results are spot on. I sense further visits will be called for as my wife begins to appreciate the smarter husband she has just acquired.

K. P.

I first met Alexandra Wood a year ago when I stopped by the shop to buy a white shirt. Since then I have not stopped returning for Shirts, Blazers and now just had the pleasure of having Alexandra create a lovely three piece bespoke suit. I cannot recommend Alexandra and her team enough, they are always professional, friendly and know exactly how to make you look your very best.

C. D.

I had been looking for a coat for over a year. Not satisfied with what I could find off the shelf, I turned to Alexandra. She managed to capture exactly what it was I was after and provided a coat with a wonderful fabric, expertly made that just shines with quality. Normally I get one or two comments at work for any new piece of clothing I buy, this coat gets complimented every single time I wear it. While visiting her amazing shop for coat fittings, I also purchased two great ties and a brilliantly cut white shirt. I found a tiny defect on the shirt collar, which was a shame, but Alexandra swapped it for a brand new one immediately with no questions asked. Alexandra works hard, she knows what she is doing and you will not be disappointed having something made by her. Her colleagues in the shop are marvellously attentive, charming and professional. I'm saving up for a suit, and cannot wait to return!

R. W.

Alexandra made my father a suit for my wedding. She was nothing but helpful, patient and knowledgeable, helping us with colours to match the wedding party and his skin tone. My father has little time and she was quick, efficient and made each appointment fun and enjoyable. She produced a beautiful suit on time and to a very high quality. I would highly recommend Alexandra for a stress free, stylish suit!

M. B.

Alexandra is absolutely great - excellent service and very skilled at what she does. I have only ever had one other bespoke suit made for me previously and the three piece suit that Alexandra made for me, as my wedding suit, surpassed this by a mile! The quality of the fabrics and attention to detail of the suit (and service) is top class - such a pleasure to wear and makes me feel fantastic!! Thanks Alexandra - Martin Dunseath-Franklin, Kent

C. P.

Alexandra made two beautiful suits for me to wear for business but also for my daughters christening. The service I received was second to none. Measured at my convenience at my house. Guided through styles, colours and finishes, Alexandra offered her expert opinion and I'm so glad she did because although I had an idea of what I wanted to be honest I didn't know how to pull it all together to get it right. The work on the suits was immaculate. Alexandra was a pleasure to deal with throughout and reassuringly was always available when I had any queries. Would have no hesitation in recommending her to those looking for top quality.

M. G.

I had been promising myself a bespoke suit for many years so my expectations were high. I went to Alexandra with an idea for the kind of suit I wanted, I was expertly guided to kind that would suit me the best, from design to colour to fabric type. When the suit arrived for the first fitting, the alterations were minimal. I wear my suit often, people comment how well it fits me and how great it looks ..I think I need to order another one to give this one a rest. I reccommend Alexandra to anyone looking for the perfect fitting suit and who understands the importance of looking your best.

Z. S.

Alexandra has the skillset and charm of a top-end Saville Row tailor but with a "small business" attention to detail and customer service. Alexandra travelled free of charge to my flat to do all my fittings (at evenings and weekends) and always made me feel that my suit was top of her priority list. I would have no hesitation in using Alexandra again nor would I have any hesitation in recommending her to my family and friends. An easily stressful venture (tailoring my Wedding Suit) was an ease and a joy thanks to Alexandra's impeccable customer service and talent.

M. W.

I decided to treat myself to a bespoke tailored tux for an event I was attending. I can honestly say from start to finish, the service was 5 star! I also received lots of compliments about my suit on the night. Would highly recommend

A. B.

Alexandra is very approachable, professional and a great tailor. I had three shirts made. Her attention to detail and enthusiasm really made me feel comfortable. The fabric of the shirts and the fit exceeded my expectations. The collar magnates are a great finishing touch. I would thoroughly recommended Alexandra for quality, value and a great shopping experience.

E. B.

Alexandra made a bespoke Wedding suit for my Groom and it was perfect in every single way. We attended her London and Bishop’s Stortford branches for fittings and both places were extremely accommodating. We highly recommended her services and will definitely look to use again for another special formal occasion. Emma x

R. F.

I know very little about style – so it was a godsend to have met and worked with Alexandra to create a suit that made me look like I was current. She listened intently ensuring that she understood all of my needs and wants while also recommending her thoughts and suggestions on what would suit me the best, based on my build – which I never even considered with clothing. The result? A smart and stylish suit that feels great to wear. Very pleased and would highly recommend both her products and services.

B. G.

Alexandra created the stunning three-piece tailcoats for our wedding, and we could not have been happier. The quality is superb, and all of our guests were impressed. From the first meeting Alexandra was a pleasure to work with, and we recommend her without hesitation. Thanks again! Brett and Fen

I’ve just purchased my third and fourth pair of Alex’s fantastic lightweight jeans. My other two pairs have been such a constant companion this year it was time to mix it up a bit! I’ve worn these jeans in all settings from the office to gardening and even on the Orient Express (Pre lockdown one). They have been adaptable, exceptionally light and great to transition from day time to evening. I generally hate buying clothes and jeans in particular but Alex makes the whole experience stress free by giving you time to browse, explains her ranges and simply sorting any adjustments that are necessary. In the year that 2020 has been it was also great to get back into a welcoming and familiar setting of the shop in Bishops Stortford. I ended up leaving with a few other items in addition to my jeans!

C. H.

Superb service and suit to match. After much searching for my wedding suit I came across Alexandra Wood website and was instantly hooked. Once I had met Alexandra for our first consultation any fears I once had were put at ease. Alex could see my vision and easily put it together so I could imagine the final piece. Alex produced an amazing 3 piece mignight blue tuexedo for me which looked amazing. I experienced so many compliments on the day. The suit itself was everything I had wished for and the quality was second to none. I was looking for something slightly different but nothing outrageously bold or flashy. I was also looking for my groomsmen/usher to wear black tuxedos so the difference in suits would strike a right balance and compliment my suit. I had a rather large party (10) and all the suits were fantastic. The service went well beyond expectations when on the eve of the wedding Denise urgently arranged alterations to some of my groomsmen suits and even met half way between locations to deliver. This certainly saved the day for 3 of the chaps. I cannot thank and recommend Alex and her team enough. I now have the urge for my work suits all to be Alexandra Wood creations.

M. G.

I have no hesitation in recommending Alexandra and her team at Alexandra Wood Bespoke. Not only was the wedding suit that I purchased from her a beautiful and high quality product but the entire shopping process was a pleasure. Their Bishop's Stortford shop offers a relaxed environment with a very high-end feel and this backed up by their customer service and products. 10/10!

C. O.

Excellent service! I went to Alexandra Wood for my wedding suit back last year! I met with Alexandra numerous times to discuss the right fabric for getting married abroad and she gave a lot of advice that we took. Both Dennis and Alexandra had a keen eye for detail and would highly recommend this company.

J. S.

My opening words to Alex, "I only wear blue, grey and black". If you think that's you (I did), but you may also be open to ideas, then pop in and see Alex the next time you are in High Street. AW has a lovely range of formal to casual, understated to 'surprise yourself'. Great tips and ideas in a calm and unrushed environment. So (very elegant) blue, grey and black very much on offer at AW if that really is you, but also be prepared for an item or two that you weren't considering, but are glad that you did...

For his 50th birthday, my husband's friends all chipped in to buy him a bespoke suit - Pete loves suits but had never had one tailored especially for him. The suit was to be a surprise and when I contacted Alexandra by email, she was enthusiastic about the idea. And I was enthusiastic about the fact that Alexandra was a woman, as there aren't many on Savile Row! The day of the first fitting, I brought Pete up to Alexandra's showroom, which luckily is discreetly marked, so he had no idea where I was taking him. When we arrived, Alexandra had a room set aside with champagne and sweets, so it felt like a celebration. She did not rush us through choosing the fabrics or taking measurements, and we stayed on and chatted with her afterwards - she is a lovely, friendly lady. The suit was completed on time so that Pete could wear it with pride to his 50th birthday party - it was a big hit! If you're thinking of a special gift for the man in your life, you couldn't go wrong with a bespoke suit made by the talented Alexandra.

H. D. S. C.

Alexandra is a wizard of fashion. She helped people gain confidence, dress better, look better, feel better. She is a doctor and clothing is her medicine! Highly recommended. Wonderful business, amazing person.

P. M.

Friendly and professional. Top quality and value for money on the doorstep without the need for West End hassle. I’ve recently lost a lot of weight and have been delighted with the service I’ve received from Alexandra and her team in restocking my wardrobe. Thanks again!

A visit to Alexandra Wood is pure pleasure. She has an unfailing eye for cut, ready to help you make the smartest sartorial decisions for your body type and style needs. She is as gifted a stylist as she is a tailor. When it comes to men's fashion, you'll quickly find she knows what you want before you do, and her talented reputation is well deserved. Most enjoyably, she is happy to include you in the creative process as much or as little as you feel comfortable with; armed with impeccable taste, a needle and smile, you're in very safe hands with Alexandra. Old world Savile Row from a very modern woman.

A. S.

Excellent, well cut suits. Many grooms have only a handful of jobs to do for a wedding, with (1) speech and (2) "get suits" the most important ones. I travelled from London by train (easy to get to) to the bishops stortford shop one afternoon. Greeted with a nice glass of bubbles while I looked around at the suits, I was very impressed. I have rented suits from elsewhere before and they tend to weigh 400kg to make sure they can be worn by 2000 people. The suits here are lightweight, much like I expect when I get bespoke suits. The cut is excellent. My bride was very impressed with the suits on the day which was a relief! Alexandra and her team were very accommodative for my merry band of ushers and best men...despite a severe lack of intelligence from my friends on what size their bodies are. They were courteous, professional and very very helpful despite a few last minute revisions to the waist sizes of one of the ushers(!). I also had a tailor made shirt from Alexandra which was perfect and ended up getting the ties from here which were priced very reasonably. 100% recommendation from us.

K. v. d. W.

I've had 2 amazing suits from Alexandra Wood now, a truly one of a kind pinstripe wedding suit and an ultra sharp dark blue business suit. Alexandra's personal professional service, attention to detail and recommendations were spot on. She is the only person I will go to now for bespoke tailoring.

H. D.

Alexandra is an excellent tailor, who lends you her good taste while taking into account what you like and don't like. The suits and shirts she has made for me were so good, I have been back and ordered more twice!

R. L.

Excellent customer service from Alex. Ensured that your own needs were met. Would highly recommend.

A. W.

I have had 3 suites from Alexandra over the last 5 years and im excited every time i return! Her extensive knowledge on fabric and materials is second to none. When visiting Alexandra, you will get the best service with the best personality to accompany it!

K. M.

I have now had four suits made from Alexander Wood and they are by far the best I have had to date! The attention to detail is exemplary; the cut is flattering and fabrics are some of the best you can buy. She provides great advice on style, colour, shape and texture --all done with smile on her face . The new shop in Bishops Stortford is sheer magic; tasteful decor, beautiful ambiance and a cafeterie of coffee to add to the shopping experience If you want a 'a suit that fits' and is not made by computer generated measurements then I recommend you visit Alex and order a great suit just in time for Christmas! P.s I usually let her choose the lining as she has an eye for colour that always looks great!

P. H.

When I visited Alexandra Wood for the final fitting of my last bespoke suit, I said to Alexandra, that "when donning one of her bespoke pieces, I felt I could face anything that the world threw at me". It's true! If you do nothing else, visit Alexandra Wood Bespoke Tailors and talk to Alex'. 'Nough said!

P. H.

Alex is a pleasure to deal with. Fantastic customer service and top quality products. Alex intuitively understands what styles suit and my husband Ashley is delighted with everything she has made for him. Happy to highly recommend!

R. C.

Top marks to Alexandra for her styling and attention to detail in making this MTM suit for me. It was great to get the Savile Row experience closer to home. I have since commissioned a Sports jacket and a 3-piece suit for my son’s Wedding. I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who wants to feel good whilst looking their best.

S. G.

Alexandra crafted me the most stunning dinner style suit for wedding back in August 2014. I wanted something unique for not too ‘out there’. I couldn't have been happier. Highly recommended!

P. F.

I have now bought various suits and a blazer from Alexandra, Dennis and the team over the last few years and would now not go anywhere else. The process from start to finish is a pleasure. The team make time for each customer, it does not feel rushed and they are truly knowledgable and passionate about what they do, in fact nothing seems too much trouble. Keep up the good work guys.

D. M.

I am the proud owner of a three piece, Prince of Wales suit. Beautifully designed and perfectly tailored by Alexandra Wood. I can wear this standout piece to a formal occasion or the jacket with jeans for a night out. Will be a returning customer, highly recommended!

J. C.

One of the first times I wore one of the shirts Alex made for me, I was taking a client out to lunch. They remarked on the quality of my shirt which I found somewhat surprising since no one had ever said such a thing before, so I asked them how they knew. "I used to be a fabric buyer and I can see the quality from here. It's really good." Thank you Alex!

z. P. (. M. i. n. l. i. u.

Perfect fit ! After years of searching, I have finally found a tailor to make suits and shirts for all occasions. Alex and Dennis make a great team and pay care and attention to every detail. An absolute pleasure to work with!

S. R.

I discovered Alex in late 2018 and wish i’d met her sooner! She’s now made a variety of different clothes for me and everything is first class in terms of quality. She’s got a great eye, a very warm and personable approach and is brilliant fun to work with. The ready to wear pieces are very fairly priced compared to higher-end high street designer labels; bespoke pieces are obviously a little more expensive but can’t be faulted in terms of craftsmanship. I own a mixture of both, and Alex is now my first port of call when I need something new or want to create something specific. She’s the perfect blend of expertise and accessibility, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.

A. M.

Alexandra made the suit for my wedding last year - and did a brilliant job. Excellent service, extremely helpful. 10/10!

G. T.

"I approached Alexandra having seen some of her suits on other people and quite simply can't recommend her highly enough. Great choice of cloths, extremely friendly service and the end product leaves you feeling smart and pleased to be wearing a suit that fits brilliantly. She will definitely be having me as a repeat customer."

M. S.

Excellent, professional service resulting in a suit that feels unlike anything I have worn before. Projects the finest impression and is a vital tool when it comes to media work.

J. D.

A fantastic brand, run by a great owner. Would definitely recommend!

R. M.

Wow! What an experience. From the branded coffee to the beautiful bar serving whisky cocktails (how did you know??), we had a great couple of hours with you. Can’t wait to receive the suit that Sophie measured me up for.

J. L. (.

I had a great experience with Alex and her team; friendly, professional service with great results delivered on time.

M. “. N.

Excellent cut, fit and finish wth the personal touch of style that only a truely bespoke suit tailor can afford. Needless to say I would whole heartedly recommend 100%!

M. W.

Really friendly, helpful and relaxing service and high quality comfortable clothes that look and feel fantastic :)

The next level. Highly recommended.

I needed a new suit for my daughters wedding. It was a black tie event so it was important that the look was 'just so'. I chose Alexandra to help create that look, and I am pleased to say that the whole process from fabric and colour selection at the very beginning, to the final fitting at the very end, was superb. Alexandra's insight is as instinctive as it it professional, and I would have no hesitation in recommending Alexandra Wood Tailors. The wedding?.. wonderful. The look ? spot on.....

P. C.

I’ve just purchased a pair of Alexandra’s fantastic lightweight jeans and a bespoke Leather jacket. I cannot believe how exceptionally lightweight yet stylish the Jeans are - she really is redefining the term "Jeans"!! The bespoke Leather jacket is brilliant - the cut, shaping and fit are spot on - and it will last a lifetime. Alexandra made the whole experience a pleasure - I will be back for more!

A. W.

I recently got married and Alex was the only person I thought of when considering the suits for myself and my groomsmen. Having been lucky enough to have an Alexandra Wood tailored suit for a wedding at which I had previously been best man, I knew that to guarantee the best possible look for my own special day was to get in touch with Alex and have her guide me through the process in her usual affable consultative style. I am so glad I did as this resulted in a fantastic looking suit which was absolutely perfect for my tastes, and was also loved by my Wife and our guests. Not only did Alex bring to life the style I had in mind but she also made the whole experience for me, my best men and my father feel really special and truly helped kick start the wedding excitement months before the big day. Overall I can't recommend Alex highly enough for any kind of tailored menswear that you might be looking for. Thank you so much Alex and see you again soon for my next suit!

S. N.

Recently, I was lucky enough to have an Alexandra Wood tailored 3-piece Tuxedo for my Wedding. The whole experience from consultation right through to final fitting was an absolute pleasure and I couldn’t be happier with the result. It’s everything I wanted and more - Perfection! A huge thank you Alexandra!
