Alexandra Wood: Reimagining Savile Row for the Modern Man
Tailor of the 21st Century, Alexandra Wood
We love a style pioneer at The Last Concierge. They don’t come much more pioneering in the world of fine tailoring than Alexandra Wood, whose brand-new permanent Savile Row showroom – launching in mid-February – is set to take her audacious approach to contemporary and classic menswear to whole new heights.
You don’t have to look far to see the impact that Alexandra Wood has made on the scene, as the accolades have come thick and fast. Named by GQ as the “Tailor of the 21st Century” and heralded by Forbes as “Female Tailor of the Moment”, Alexandra’s career (which has involved 18 years of redefining tailoring for the discerning customers) has long been capturing the attention and imagination of those seeking bespoke suits and outfits that offer a pitch-perfect blend of excellence, ease and peerless style.
A Confident New Vision for Men’s Bespoke Tailoring
To say we’re excited at the prospect of Alexandra’s new Savile Row home is something of an understatement. After relocating her atelier to the countryside during lockdown, Alexandra’s return to London represents a bold new step and confident move that encapsulates her vision for the coming years.
Described as a “space that honours craftsmanship but rejects tradition for tradition’s sake” – a sentiment we can truly get behind – the new Savile Row showroom has been meticulously designed with her clientele in mind. Indeed, it’s a haven of calm amid the hustle and bustle of the heart of London, an elegant space in which absolute personalisation and curation takes centre stage. The aim is a timeless one: to guide clients through a bespoke experience that feels enjoyable, intuitive and deeply luxurious, and which allows Alexandra’s commitment to her craft to be realised in full.

A relaxed hub of contemporary tailoring, Savile Row
On the one hand, it’s hard not to respect Savile Row’s perceived resistance to change. On the other, that small ‘c’ conservatism, deeply formal and often overly opaque approach to traditional tailoring feels deeply out of place in the contemporary style hub that is 21st century London.
Alexandra Wood’s showroom aims to address many of these issues while doubtlessly maintaining all the class, quality and prestige of her Savile Row address. By inviting clients to engage in a more relaxed – but no less curated – appointment experience, she’s placing a refreshing emphasis on more modern approaches to menswear; those which address how men actually live, work and move in 2026 and beyond. Expect a stunning array of world-class fabrics alongside innovative cuts and styles for each and every individual, as well as an ambience in which drinks can be shared, conversation can be enjoyed and time can be taken. More ease, less pressure – what’s not to love?
Alexandra’s signature design philosophy – that of tailoring that fits not just the body, but the lifestyle, personality and ambitions of the wearer – is one that resonates with a new generation, and speaks of how even beloved institutions like Savile Row need to keep evolving in order to remain relevant.

A Trio of Unmissable Capsule Wardrobes
No launch of a brand new tailoring atelier would be complete without some striking new looks and concepts to showcase, and Alexandra has worked tirelessly on curating a trio of tailored capsule wardrobes aimed at simplifying dressing and elevating personal presence. With each capsule featuring six expertly-chosen pieces designed to work seamlessly together, they allow for literally dozens of scene-stealing looks with the minimum effort.
The essence of curation goes further still: clients can select from three levels of capsules, Essential, Signature and Elite, with each tier offering increasing levels of design detail, luxurious fabric choices and personalised styling.
The Essential Capsule
Created for men who value ease without sacrificing sophistication, the Essential Capsule is the cornerstone of a modern wardrobe. It features six carefully tailored core pieces selected for their adaptability, sharp silhouettes, and enduring appeal. Designed to be worn together or apart, each item complements the rest, allowing for a range of elevated outfits that transition smoothly from daytime commitments to evening occasions.
The Signature Capsule
The Signature Capsule expands on the core offering with a heightened level of personal tailoring and refined design. Materials are more distinctive, silhouettes are more precise, and styling is approached with greater intention. Maintaining its focus on versatility, this capsule introduces understated statement pieces and polished details that allow individual character to come through. Crafted for men who want their clothing to convey confidence and presence, the Signature Capsule exudes individuality paired with quiet assurance.
The Elite Capsule
The Elite Capsule is the most complete and individually tailored embodiment of Alexandra Wood’s design ethos. Executed at the highest level of bespoke craftsmanship, it provides entry to exceptional fabrics, sophisticated tailoring methods, and a fully curated wardrobe experience. Each garment is created to mirror not only the client’s style, but their lifestyle, leadership, and movement through the world – delivering a wardrobe that is intuitive, commanding, and distinctly their own.
