The three iconic British brands invited guests from across the worlds of business, style, design, society and entertainment to Coutts’s headquarters on the Strand. Here, a landmark new publication — Henry Poole & Co: The First Tailors of Savile Row — was unveiled.
HRH Princess Anne, a guest of Henry Poole & Co., was presented with a personally-dedicated copy of the new book, with a foreword by company director and Poole family descendant Simon Cundey.
