We are delighted that The Suit Group has signed a four-year partnership and will be recognised as the “Official Formalwear Supplier” of British Fencing.
The Suit Group, established in 2017, is a supplier of bespoke tailored suits, shirts and uniforms. The group was founded by Kasey Alexander in response to a lack of affordable options for high quality, great fitting suits on the market. They offer over 200 fabrics imported from Italy, including Enzo Marcello, Lancificio Matteo, Gino Matteo wool blend cashmere, linen and silk, priced from £500. The Suit Group visits their clients at their homes or offices, saving them from travelling.
All of The Suit Group’s suits are made from their shop in Bromley, South East London; however, they also have locations in Manchester, Barcelona and Dubai. They are aiming to add more locations later this year, such as in Geneva and New York.
The Suit Group is interested in clients who are style-conscious and appreciate high quality fabrics, and understand what the power of a suit can do for them. Some of their previous clients include Wycombe Wanderers FC, Bromley Rugby Club and Barclays Bank. They also won the Best Bespoke Tailor Company award in 2021 at the SME Business Elite Awards.
Kasey Alexander from The Suit Group said:
“We are delighted to partner with British Fencing as the Official Formalwear Supplier. As leaders of innovation in the tailoring industry, working with the BF team will allow us to create amazing suits for refereeing those important bouts, seen by millions across the world. This partnership will undoubtedly aid our international growth across Europe and the Middle East, and we are very proud to be representing British tailoring alongside BF.”
Harry Brown, BF Head of Licensing, added:
“We at BF are really excited about this innovative partnership, collaborating in a new sector that will enable fencing to be showcased within the fashion industry. We’re looking forward to cross-promoting our sport and have a vision to utilise this formalwear at fencing events and beyond.”
We want to make physical activity as diverse and inclusive as possible through the world of fencing. If this goal resonates with you, we want to hear from your organisation.
