36S/38S Ede & Ravenscroft MTM suit

Dark Navy with purple tramline - 100% Wool

£250 FREE insured/tracked UK shipping

Measurements & more info below photo)



A rare chance to buy an MTM suit from one of the world's oldest tailors, in perfect condition.

Approximately a size 36S/38S, this suit is designed to transition effortlessly from office to evening out. 100% wool, from Dormeuil's Royal 12 book, the cloth has a background in dark navy/deepest purple, and has a unique, surprisingly discreet purple tramline. At ease both in a modern office and at a good cocktail bar, this suit solves the problem of what to wear on those hectic days when you don't have time to change between work and a night out.

This suit is from my own wardrobe, bought by me from Ede & Ravenscroft. It is in perfect condition, with no rips, holes, stains, marks, etc. I am selling it partly because it is a little large for me these days, and partly because I have a serious lack of wardrobe space!

I believe the retail price for MTM Ede & Ravenscroft suits is somewhere around £1000. The asking price reflects my desire for a quick sale.

^ It is! But in practice, a bit less so than the description of the fabric might suggest. It's surprisingly versatile, unless you work in a very conservative office, of course.
