53. The Ceremonial Uniform

When you need someone to escort the King’s crown to Parliament for the state opening, you call on his Majesty’s Gentleman at Arms – with their distinctive red and gold jackets.
And when you need someone to make a new uniform for this historic corps, you call Jules Walker and her team at Gieves and Hawkes.
Number 53 on our list of the greatest things we make here is The Ceremonial Uniform.
Jules is head of the tailor’s military team, and on today’s show she gives us a tour of her workshop in the basement of 1 Savile Row.
We learn what it takes to make uniforms for the King’s Guards, discover what an epaulette is, and consider the parallels between tailoring and plumbing.
Also on the show, we mull the need for a Ministry of Made in Britain and question why buyers from overseas appear to value our crafts more than we do.
