Despite a highly acclaimed and award-winning career working for a premium tailoring brand, in 2006 Ian Fielding-Calcutt saw the opportunity to create something new, organic and unique. The new business would retain his core ethics of exceptional service, design and most importantly bring a ‘new luxury’ element to the tailoring world. On a chance meeting with serial entrepreneur and investor Adam Nicholson the brand was born – on top of a mountain in the Swiss Alps! After a year in the business, Ian bought Adam out to allow him to work on other projects.
The business has grown steadily over the years, in 2014 being ranked amongst the top ten tailors of London. It’s also one of the few tailoring brands with its own in-house cutter, Raymond, who has over 40 years experience in the business working with the likes of Paul Smith, Anderson & Shepard and personally for members of the British royal family.
At present, the business consists of himself, Consulting Partner Alex Riley (8 years service), Tailoring Consultant Lewis Calcutt, Head Cutting Consultant Raymond Chung, Tailor & Cutting Consultant Sein Lei Minh and Cris Zamoranos (Consultant Marketing Executive).”
In the future the business aims to become the number one luxury tailoring provider in the world (based on quality and service), working with many famous faces and delivering exceptional service, without fail, to everyone it works with.
We have a long-established team which can call upon over 70 years worth of experience in the industry. We do not have a revolving door of new people so you can be sure that you’re getting many times the quality of service that you would in a standard retail store or made to measure provider.
Here at Fielding & Nicholson we believe in developing strong partnerships to enable us to deliver the best possible service to our clients. With this in mind, we have developed strong relationships with luxury brands that provide us with fixed premises for fitting and consultation purposes.
Our stunning showroom on the first floor allows clients to relax and have a drink in a calm environment, just off the iconic Savile Row. The showroom is fully ‘COVID-safe’ with hand sanitiser and masks available upon arrival – all our tailoring representatives respect government guidelines with masks worn at all times.
Clients can enjoy a playlist of their choice and peruse cloth with chilled drinks from water to tailors’ old favourite rum. There are over 1000 cloths available to view courtesy of our partnership with luxury cloth merchants Dormeuil which owns this iconic building. Schedule in a meeting with us to relax and reset your wardrobe in this elegant environment.
We also service clients in the North of the UK.
Our luxury showroom space in Temple is opposite the High Court. The studio gives you the ability to choose from thousands of cloths whilst sipping on drinks of your choice. We also have tailoring experts on hand to advise on a range of bespoke items from jackets and shirts to even hoodies and safari jackets.
We are able to offer weekend appointments at 217 so please let us know if you’d like to book in and experience this beautiful space.
Our flourishing partnership with Risch bespoke shoe makers allows us full use of their beautiful showroom in Uetlihof, the centre of Zurich’s financial district.
Fielding & Nicholson’s partnership with Risch allows our clients to select cloths and be fitted in a private VIP room. Clients can then speak with Mr. Risch and be measured for their bespoke shoes or simply take a look through the vast selection of shoes on display if they so wish.
Set in the heart of Manhattan, our New York showroom is on the Penthouse of 130 W 57th Street.
Fully refurbished in late 2021, the showroom boasts thousands of cloth bunches, along with tasteful furnishings to enable you to kick back and enjoy perusing cloth.
Our ongoing relationships have now bought us to The Mere Golf Resort and Spa. A luxurious resort located in the idyllic Cheshire countryside. Surrounded by 150 acres of stunning parkland, the resort is a true haven of peace and tranquility, offering our clients the perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life to sit, relax and discuss their tailoring needs with tailoring consultant Lewis.
Ian’s brother in law, Lewis Calcutt, services clients in the area as well as Manchester on a bespoke appointment only basis.

Fielding & Nicholson is committed to its clients for the long-term and also would like to exceed expectations when it comes to value and service. This is why we set up the unique 5 year guarantee, which seeks to ensure client’s clothes last as long as is possible given the day to day wear garments will be experiencing. To ensure we give you the best possible service and remain a viable and productive business we have the following stipulations:

This guarantee covers general wear and tear for your garments, which includes tears to cloth, client weight changes and other related matters.
The guarantee does not take into account relining issues, replacement collars and cuffs where the cloth is no longer in stock and replacement of entire panels such as new sleeves on a suit jacket, new trouser fork.
All 5 year guarantee amendments or alterations are to be delivered to our showroom.
Garments must be dry cleaned thoroughly before handing them across to be altered by your tailor.
The company reserves the right to refuse to repair or replace any item deemed irreparable.
Having been in business since 2007 we are lucky to have many long-standing clients.

I’ve worked with Fielding & Nicholson for over ten years now and had dozens of items made. I like many things about the service they deliver and could talk for hours on the subject! For me, the fit and impression my clothes give are of paramount importance. Having my own personal clothier attend to everything I need is priceless. My work in the Global Markets space historically meant being well presented in suits and shirts.
With the move to smart casual this has diversified the wardrobe into many different avenues. Although at first sceptical about this move, with the guidance of Ian and Alex we’ve created a few garments now which I’m extremely happy with. These include a safari jacket, blazers, numerous sport coats, chinos, jeans, sweaters and shirts both casual and formal. My most recent purchase includes chinos, shirts and a new jacket.
It’s always a pleasure to work with the Fielding & Nicholson team. I’ve referred many friends and colleagues who have all been happy. Highly recommend trying out their services - you won’t be disappointed.

I run a number of businesses, including a university, and as such have very little time. My international headquarters are based in Zug, Switzerland so clothing choices are somewhat limited! I met Ian through a friend of a friend on Linkedin back in 2018 and we have created a number of unique pieces together.
Kjetil Sandermoen Bestselling author, founder of an online University, business consultantThe beauty of the service is that now Fielding & Nicholson has my measurements and styling preferences we can order absolutely anything. During COVID the product range was greatly widened to include jeans, T-shirts, polos, sweaters and even hoodies! My own wardrobe from Ian now comprises everything from vests and suits to sweaters and casual slacks.
My most recent acquisition was a ‘car coat’ made from the beautiful cashmere cloth of Loro Piana. This coat not only keeps me warm, it also looks and feels amazing. I’ve been so happy with the company’s service I referred my son Jonas who had his wedding suit made which was absolutely perfect.
My colleague Sami also became a client and has ordered a number of items, including a 3-piece suit which is currently being cut. All in all I highly recommend Fielding & Nicholson Tailoring. Don’t get me wrong, things don’t always go smoothly, but even when they don’t any issues are resolved in a timely manner. I look forward to seeing Ian on his many visits to Switzerland
