Women's Countrywear & Tweed Suits

Ever since Coco Chanel made tweed suits an iconic staple, they have remained a chic, classic look that can be used for work, weekend-wear or even an alternative to the classic wedding suit.

Famous for its vivid colours, distinctive patterns and associations with British heritage, tweed has style and class in abundance. It is extremely robust, maintaining its shape well, hanging beautifully and actually improving with age.

King & Allen Countrywear extends beyond Tweed to a range of other cloths - such as Flannel - and across various check patterns to create the style you're looking for.

Suit for Life

A countrywear suit from King & Allen will make you feel classic, yet modern, understated yet elegant and, when well-maintained, should last a lifetime.

We have an extensive range of tweeds on offer, from traditional Harris to modern worsted checks. Each cloth is woven by some of the world’s finest mills.

Our favoured cloth merchant, Holland & Sherry, is located on the banks of the River Tweed in Scotland. Their selection of tweeds are among the finest in the world and we are proud to offer these fabrics to our customers.

Origins of Tweed

Tweed originated in the 18th century, created by Scottish weavers who needed a denser cloth to brave the northern wilds. They created an earthy palette with colours to match those found on the heaths of the highlands.

Modern tweeds have remained vibrant and charismatic, but are now available in lighter weights to be worn all year round. As well as the classic tweed suit, we also offer bespoke waistcoats and overcoats in tweed.

BRinging AMIE's VISION TO LIFE

"I chose King & Allen as I knew I wouldn't find what I had in my head from a shop. I had followed King & Allen on social media for a long time and liked the fact they catered for women as I found most tailors only made men’s suits. My experience was incredible from start to finish! I had a vision in my head of the suit I wanted but I felt overwhelmed. Karl at King & Allen was so helpful in guiding me on the style that best suited me."
