Steven Hitchcock
The drape cut, carried on outside Anderson & Sheppard by a tailor who grew up in it.
Steven Hitchcock is a London bespoke tailor working in the drape tradition, having trained at Anderson & Sheppard where his father was head coatmaker. He cuts a soft English coat with the characteristic fullness through the chest, in a small independent workshop.
A lineage rather than a firm
The drape cut is a method, and it has been carried out of Anderson & Sheppard by tailors who learned it there. Hitchcock is the clearest example: a small operation, cutting the same soft, full-chested coat, at a price below the large Row houses because the overheads are different.
For a customer this is the most interesting corner of the London trade: the same technical tradition, without a Mayfair shopfront in the price.
The drape, made lightly
Fullness across the chest and blades in the Scholte manner, with a soft natural shoulder and a high armhole so the extra cloth does not restrict. The coat hangs rather than grips and moves with the wearer.
Construction is a full canvas, hand-padded, in the London way. What is absent relative to the large Row houses is the overhead rather than the method.
The economics
The interesting thing about a small independent working in an established tradition is what leaves the price. There is no shopfront in Mayfair, no showroom, and a much smaller overhead, and the difference goes to the customer rather than to the rent.
What does not change is the method: the same drape cut, the same canvassed construction, the same number of fittings. For a customer who wants A&S's silhouette and does not need A&S's front door, this is the obvious comparison to make.
