The Level 5 Diploma in Bespoke Tailoring is a government-regulated qualification and the ultimate in UK tailoring training: developed by the Savile Row Bespoke Association, the programme offers a modern day alternative to the traditional apprenticeship: vocational training at the highest level, with strong focus on practical skills.

If you are interested in bespoke tailoring as a career path following a Level 3 qualification or equivalent (including informal prior learning), this could be the course for you! The full skill set is delivered in a structured curriculum, in just one year. Our graduates are highly sought after by bespoke tailoring houses, theatre, opera and film production, as a well as in high end fashion.

Come and visit our studio for Open Day on Sat 21 November, meet students and tutors, get an overview of the programme and learn about funding options. Our 2025/26 graduate Lucy Ackers will answer questions about her experience on the course and launching her bespoke tailoring career straight out school. Plus, if you fancy a little practice on the spot, you are invited to take part in our mini-workshop, where we teach you to stitch a hand buttonhole!
