Chester Barrie was a 'semi-bespoke' gentleman's tailor last located at No. 19 Savile Row, London. Founded in 1935 by Simon Ackerman, a tailor born in Russia who immigrated to the United States, and presently owned by Prominent Europe. The business provided ready-to-wear clothes, as well as made-to-measure tailoring. At the turn of the 20th century, Simon Ackerman left Kaunas, Russia for New York City. Having built up a high-priced, quality tailoring business in and around New York, in 1935 he decided that he wanted to import quality British-made suits for the US market. He traveled to England, founding Chester Barrie in 1935 and opening a factory in Crewe in Cheshire - midpoint between cloth mills of Huddersfield and the Port of Liverpool. His aim was to create ready-to-wear tailoring, that was of the same quality and had the same attention to detail as the bespoke tailors of Savile Row but without the wait and high cost. Suits for export had the button holes un-finished, where by sending them back to the United States unfinished thus avoided the import duty. More information...
