Reviews of King & Allen, Liverpool Street (Tailor)

Jason Mountier

My husband bought a custom made suit, waistcoat and shirt in the Liverpool Street branch. My husband is a reluctant suit shopper but had to for our daughter’s wedding. However, he is now a convert!!! We dealt with Joe who was friendly and extremely helpful, professional and knowledgeable with design ideas. I can not recommend enough - yes it is more expensive that buying a suit from John Lewis but there is no trying on suit after suit - you just sit on a comfy sofa and select fabric, lining, buttons, and design - then you get measured and pick up a few weeks later.

Had my first tailored suit from King & Allen 6 years ago for my wedding and I am wearing the same suit again this weekend! Am really impressed with the quality of the suit, only thing that has changed really is my waistline but the suit has lasted me really well. Very happy!

I'm busy getting a full canvas bespoke wedding suit made with a configuration just under £2k. My initial fitting was in mid-June, skeleton baste July and collection in September. During the collection fitting the waistcoat was around 4inches too big, the jacket shoulder fit well but the sleeves were different length, the sides needed to get tapered by about 3inches and the exterior stiching was the wrong colour. What really annoyed me was that the fitter was trying to convince me that everything was fine and would be very happy to take my stuff and walk out. She also mentioned that a change in stitching will need the entire jacket to be redone and the mistake is "not that bad". Now they are remaking the jacket (with the specified amendments I hope) and the waist coat but unfortunately as the jacket is being remade this will further extend the time taken.. There is no date of the next appointment and we have run out of time to accommodate for any other mistakes as my wedding is abroad (and considering its a new jacket based on the old jacket I'd be surprised if there are no alterations required). All this has been raised to King and allen, but only to receive a standard response that the next appointment will be in time and no reference to if alterations are required. Overall I'm disappointed with the service, the fact that the fitters don't give good advice and will try convince you that everything fits even if it obviously doesn't and that they were not open to discuss any compensation to accept the incorrect stiching and get the jacket back earlier. I really appreciate well fitting, good quality suits and was looking for a tailor that I could use constantly but will not be coming to k&a again. And at this moment, I'm just hoping I get my suit back on time without any significant mistakes.

Love this company. Used to meet them in Oxford and Birmingham but now Liverpool Street is more convenient. Great location a friendly team and great clothing.

Joe and the team at King and Allen were incredible and made my first time of buying a tailored custom suit, very easy and a joy. They dealt with multiple delays and cancellations due to covid travel restrictions with zero issues, were always helpful and polite, and I couldn't be happier with my suit. I didn't have much of a clue as to what I wanted and the many options would have been overwhelming, but Joe guided me through the process like the professional he is - telling me what fabrics would be good for a summer wedding, and talking through all the fit options with all the patience in the world. If you're looking for a suit for a special occasion I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Joe and King and Allen Liverpool St.

I had a suit made by King & Allen for my wedding. Joe G based in the Liverpool Street & Surbiton stores was incredibly helpful. He was able to answer all our questions and help guide me through the process with an experienced eye, but never overstepping or making any decisions for me. The end product is a beautiful suit that looks, feels & fits better than I ever thought. I would thoroughly recommend this to anyone looking to have a suit made for them! Best decision!

Great tailor-made suits - ultra sharp style!

Joanna Ellis

I had a suit made to measure here. The experience overall was great, everyone I dealt with was very professional and accommodating. Gwen in particular was very helpful and polite - explaining the process, materials and recommending the appropriate options for the suit. At my first fitting only minor alterations were required which they were very quick to complete. Most importantly, the final product came out great! I will definitely be using King and Allen again next time I need I suit.

I bought a made to measure from K&A and I'm more than happy with the service and end product. You should expect to pay more than you would for an off the peg suit but the attention to detail, service and end product will be a thousand times better.

I went to King and Allen to get my wedding suit made for me. We had Gwen assist us and we couldn't have had a more positive experience. She helped us from start to finish and was so lovely

Joe and team made my 3-piece wedding suit and did a great job. Joe was very patient with my indecision and got the suit finished in time for wedding despite Covid delays.
