WHY DO YOU WEAR DASHING?

“Dashing to me is an expression of individuality, giving the ability to take a piece of cloth which is relatively rare, turning it into something which is absolutely unique.
 
Unlike many other cloths, Dashing with their relatively small runs gives an additional level of bespoke and individuality to any item of clothing made.
 
Dashing is also fun! There is a certain humour to many of the fabrics which adds to the sense of enjoyment when wearing an item of clothing.”

HOW DO YOU DEFINE YOURSELF THROUGH YOUR CLOTHING?

“One of the pleasures of having clothes made is that you can have different clothes to suit different environments and moods.
 
For me, the way this is found through Dashing is the ability to have a suit suitable for work, horse racing, a great passion, going out, or just general wear and the ability to have a suit for the appropriate occasion, is hugely enjoyable.
 
For most suits, I will tend to have a pair of shorts made allowing you to have one suit that fits multiple events and can be worn throughout the year and when travelling, and Dashing allows me to be smart, practical, and comfortable.”

WHAT DOES STYLE MEAN TO YOU?

“I think style is very individual, with different people having views on what is or is not stylish.
 
For me, feeling stylish is wearing a well-made comfortable suit, designed to your own specifications to match your mood and environment.

It’s having something that matches your character and environment, it being an appropriate expression of who you are for the setting you are in.”
