In its second century as the standard-bearer of Savile Row craftsmanship, the bespoke tailor Anderson & Sheppard has two simple rules. First, a suit shouldn’t wear the man—the man should wear the suit. Second, the moment a man is overdressed, he is badly dressed.

A new book, Anderson & Sheppard: A Style Is Born, edited by Graydon Carter and Cullen Murphy, and with text by David Kamp, tells the story of the firm from its founding to the present day.
