Geoffrey Golding — over fifty years at the bench
Our heritage
Over fifty years of
unbroken craft
Geoffrey Golding began his tailoring career at fourteen, learning the craft in the traditional way — by hand, under close instruction. Over more than fifty years he has built one of Britain's most respected bespoke tailoring practices from his workroom in St Albans, Hertfordshire.
Every commission — whether a bespoke suit, military mess dress, a morning coat, or ceremonial livery — is cut from scratch to the client's individual measurements and no outsourcing. Every garment is constructed and hand-finished in-house, from first fitting to final delivery.

Recognition at the

Geoffrey Golding was awarded the Royal Victorian Order in recognition of more than fifty years of exceptional service to British tailoring — an honour that reflects a career built on the highest standards of bespoke craftsmanship.
His clients have included members of the Royal Family, Cabinet ministers, senior officers of every major regiment in the British Army, and leading figures in the City livery companies. Geoffrey Golding is widely regarded as one of the finest bespoke and military tailors in Britain.
