Fielding & Nicholson, a London tailor with a Zurich showroom
Fielding & Nicholson is a British bespoke tailor in Zurich, with a permanent showroom at Grubenstrasse 45.
We make bespoke and made to measure suits, jackets, shirts and wedding wear for men and women. Our co-founder, Ian Fielding-Calcutt, consults there himself, and Google reviewers rate us 4.9 from 158 reviews.
At the end of 2025, 33.9 percent of Zurich’s 452,421 residents were foreign nationals, according to the City of Zurich (opens in a new tab). If your work moves you between cities, your pattern is kept and travels with you. The showroom is one of five places to meet our suit tailors.

Bespoke suits made in London to your own pattern
A bespoke suit from our Zurich showroom starts with a new pattern cut just for you, then made in London. That is what bespoke means: your own pattern, a try-on garment and up to three fittings. You are measured and fitted by the same cutters as our tailors in London, just off Savile Row.
Bespoke shirts that fit at collar and cuff
Bespoke shirts are cut to your own measurements, so the collar, cuffs and sleeves fit the way you wear them.
Wedding suits cut for your day
For a Zurich wedding, the first conversation works backwards from your date. We make wedding suits for grooms, brides and wedding parties.
Made to measure from our Icon Collection
Made to measure applies your measurements to an existing pattern. Our Icon Collection is made in Portugal, with up to three alterations included in the price.
Suits and tailoring for women
Every collection is made for women as well as men. That covers suits, blouses, knitwear and separates.
How does bespoke tailoring work when you live in Zurich?
Bespoke tailoring with us starts with a free consultation at the showroom, and most suits are ready 6 to 8 weeks after your first visit. Every fitting happens at the showroom or at your home nearby, so there are no trips to London. There are four stages:
- 01 ConsultationYour first visit takes about an hour. You talk through what the piece is for and look at cloth.
- 02 Measurements and clothYour tailor takes over 30 measurements. Then you choose your cloth.
- 03 Baste fittingThis is your first try-on. The suit is only loosely stitched together, so the fit can be changed before anything is finished.
- 04 Further fittings and collectionMost clients need 2 to 3 fittings in all. At the final fitting, every seam, button and lining is checked before the suit is pressed.
Nothing is cut until you have said yes, and your order is confirmed in writing. Our guide to each stage of the bespoke tailoring process has more detail.
What decides the cost of your suit in Zurich?
The cost of your suit depends on three things. These are whether it is bespoke or made to measure, the cloth you choose and the details you add.
Bespoke starts at a higher price than made to measure, because your pattern is drawn from scratch and refined over your fittings.
You leave the free consultation knowing what your piece would cost, with no obligation.
You can see our made to measure and bespoke suit prices before you book.

Your first consultation is free, and there is nothing to pay and nothing to order.
Home and office visits by arrangement
If getting to Grubenstrasse is awkward, a tailor can visit your home or office in or around Zurich by arrangement. Your fittings can happen at home too. You can also start with a video call if that is easier.
Alterations and aftercare under a five year guarantee
Bespoke garments we make are covered by our five year guarantee for wear and tear, including adjustments if your shape changes. It applies wherever your garment was bought or fitted.
Read how the cover works
To keep the cover, you need to have bought from us within the last 12 months. Have your garment dry cleaned before you hand it in at the showroom, and every repair the guarantee covers is free of charge.
Alterations to anything we made are handled at the showroom, and clothes made elsewhere are looked at case by case.
You can read the full terms of our five year guarantee before you order.
Questions about seeing a tailor in Zurich
Do I need an appointment?
Yes, every consultation and fitting at the showroom is booked in advance. You can book online or call +44 20 7167 3490.
Where is the Zurich showroom?
The Fielding & Nicholson showroom in Zurich is at Grubenstrasse 45, 8045 Zürich. It sits inside the showroom of Risch Shoes, a shoemaker that makes men’s shoes to measure, in Alt-Wiedikon, District 3.
What should I bring to my first appointment?
Nothing is required. A jacket whose fit you like helps. So do the shoes you plan to wear with the finished piece, because they set the trouser length.
Tailoring for Men, Women and Every Body Shape
Our London tailors cut for men and women to the same standard, using the same cloths and the same fittings. Nathalie May leads the womenswear side.
Alterations to garments we made are handled at the showroom, and the work is priced before it starts. The same process runs across all four showrooms, in London, Cheshire, Zurich and New York, so a client who moves cities keeps their pattern.
Book your first consultation at Grubenstrasse 45
One Zurich client summed up the finished result as “completely convincing in every respect”. Yours starts with a conversation at Grubenstrasse 45 about what the piece is for. You can also book with our tailors in New York or at our London showroom.

Tell us what you are after
Send us a message and we will come back with proper answers. Whether you want something made or something you own put right, tell us what it is and we will explain what it involves, how long it takes and what it costs. Getting in touch does not book anything.
For an alteration, a line on what is wrong with the garment helps, and a photo helps more. Anything we made is altered at the showroom, and clothes made elsewhere are looked at case by case.
