Maurice Sedwell

Maurice Sedwell

Established on Fleet Street in 1938. Maurice Sedwell moved the premises to 9 Savile Row in 1963. In 1988 Maurice Sedwell was purchased from the retiring Maurice Sedwell by Andrew Ramroop, a long standing employee. The business thrived in the 1980s and 1990s with a client list littered with Lords, Politicians, and even a member of the royal family. In 1994 the business moved to the larger premises of 19 Savile Row.[1]

Today Maurice Sedwell is known for consistently producing fine hand-tailoring. In 2008, Andrew Ramroop opened The Savile Row Academy, the only professionally staffed school on Savile Row.
