Synopsis
A DAILY MAIL BOOK OF THE WEEK
‘Everest is truly dedicated to his profession… He deserves to be known as the Welsh Ralph Lauren or Giorgio Armani.’ – Roger Lewis, Daily Mail
The son of restaurateurs, young Timothy Everest wanted nothing more than to be a racing driver. This was not to be, but little did he know that a job he took at age 17 – as a sales assistant at Hepworths in Milford Haven – would set the trajectory for success to come.
Boy Wanted on Savile Row is the remarkable story of Everest’s meteoric rise in the British fashion industry. Starting in the 1980s and studying under Tommy Nutter, the rebel of Savile Row, while rubbing shoulders with the likes of Steve Strange and Boy George, he branched out on his own the following decade. Here he initially styled bands and pop stars, before spearheading the ‘Cool Britannia’ generation and becoming the face of the New Bespoke Movement. After earning over 3,500 clients, including Tom Cruise, David Beckham and Jay-Z, to name but a few, Everest turned his hand to tailoring for film, creating some truly iconic pieces for such franchises as James Bond and Mission Impossible.
In this revealing memoir, featuring a wealth of famous names and celebrity anecdotes, Timothy Everest details the evolution of British tailoring that has shaped the way we view and buy our clothes.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Everest was very much part of the '90s 'Cool Britannia' movement, and this book will ride the wave of '90s nostalgia. The son of restaurateurs, Timothy Everest MBE wanted to be a racing driver when he was young. His ambition unfulfilled, at 17 he took a job with his uncle, working as a sales assistant at Hepworths in Milford Haven, a high street shop that would form the foundation of the Next retail empire. Everest never looked back. Peaks and Troughs is the remarkable story of his meteoric rise in the British fashion industry. It is a revealing memoir that plots the evolution of British tailoring over the past four decades, starting in the 1980s, when Everest studied under the rebel of Savile Row, Tommy Nutter, and rubbed shoulders with the likes of Steve Strange and Boy George amongst the New Romantic club scene. Branching out on his own in the '90s, Everest initially styled bands and pop stars, such as George Michael, before he became the spearhead of the 'Cool Britannia' generation and the face of the New Bespoke Movement. Having earned over 3,500 bespoke clients, which included luminaries such as Tom Cruise, David Beckham, Mick Jagger and Jay-Z, to name but a few, Everest turned his hand to tailoring for films, such as the James Bond and Mission Impossible franchises, and created some truly iconic suits. Featuring a wealth of famous names and celebrity anecdotes, both hilarious and tragic, Peaks and Troughs leads the reader through a landscape of bespoke British tailoring that would change the way we view and buy our clothes forever. 20 colour illustrations Legendary British tailor Timothy Everests autobiography Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
