SPRING NEWSLETTER 2017
BESPOKE TAILORS BENEVOLENT ASSOCIATION This year Scott has been nominated by the BTBA to become the 2017 Appeal Chairman. This recognition within the tailoring industry is such an honour for Scott and the family, especially with it being exactly 20 years since his father Geoff was given the same office.
As National Appeal Chairman Scott will support and help raise money for the charity. The first event of the year was the annual BTBA Winter dinner held at The Merchant Taylors Hall in Threadneedle Street, London.
NEW LADIES MADE TO MEASURE JACKET This year Laura Souster Couture has a new elegant, made to measure collarless style jacket, as pictured here. This jacket can be tailored and styled with a variety of individual designs and fabrics from ÂŁ455. For more style ideas and information please take a look at the new Laura Souster Couture page on the Souster and Hicks website.
Scott was asked to give a speech and provide a guest speaker for the evening. In true Souster fashion he didn’t get your standard speaker but one of his customers, Gold medalist Kriss Akabusi...can you guess which football team he supports?

A NEW LOOK The main shop area has undergone a new stylish makeover to accommodate the appointment only system.
This provides you with another showroom where we can serve you in a much more welcoming and comfortable environment.
APPOINTMENT ONLY & ENTRY PHONE SYSTEM As many of you know from the 1st February 2017 we became appointment only with a new entry phone system fitted to the front door. This has been very well received and we are happy with how the new system allows us more private time with each customer. Having the appointment system in place means we are now able to open on a Monday. This allows us to see customers 6 days per week instead of 5 and be more flexible with our hours. Appointment times: Monday - Friday First Appointment: 9am Last Appointment: 4.30pm Saturday First Appointment: 9am Last Appointment: 2pm Out of these hours by special arrangement.
Appointments can be made in advance preferably by email or if you wish by phone. If you have some free time on the day or are just passing by the shop, you can give us a quick call and hopefully one of us will still be available to see you. sousterandhicks.com
