The story
Savile Row is named for London's tailoring street, and it borrows the cloth as well as the name. Cotton and genuine textile fibres are blended into the pulp, so the sheet has the dry, woven handle of suiting. Plain gives a soft rough finish, Tweed is embossed with a herringbone weave, and Pinstripe forms its tone-on-tone stripe in the paper machine itself. Camel, Dark Grey, Blue and White read like a wardrobe, made for swing tags, lookbooks and cards for people who dress well.
