The iconic Peaky Blinders look is far more than a costume it is a craft-based style defined by character, texture, and personality. In this video we show how a contemporary tailored suit can be translated into an authentic, rustic Peaky Blinders aesthetic. We take you through fabrics, silhouettes, and styling choices that make or break this look both for those who simply love the style and for grooms seeking a more distinctive wedding outfit.

What makes a Peaky Blinders suit authentic?

In the video you can see how the look is built around three key elements:

1) Fabrics with character
We work extensively with natural, tactile materials such as tweed, donegal, and flannel. These fabrics add depth and structure, reinforcing the vintage feel. Typical colors include warm browns, olive green, charcoal, and muted greys, timeless and masculine.

2) The silhouette
A Peaky Blinders inspired bespoke suit often features a slightly higher waist, a defined yet wearable shoulder line, and a classic cut that looks tailored without feeling tight. The result is a look that feels solid, elegant, and comfortable.

3) Details that make the difference
Small choices define the character of the suit: double pleats in the trousers, a three-piece construction with waistcoat, vintage-style lapels, and subtle patterns such as herringbone or check. These details add personality without becoming theatrical.

Two clients, one strong look

At De Oost we create Peaky Blinders suits for two types of clients:

Style enthusiasts
Men who do not typically wear suits but are drawn to this vintage aesthetic. For them, we create a bespoke suit that feels truly personal, comfortable, distinctive, and authentic.

Grooms with a rustic vision
For wedding clients who want something beyond a sleek modern suit, and prefer more character and storytelling in their outfit. The Peaky Blinders style works particularly well for countryside, industrial, or historic wedding venues — as a stylish alternative wedding suit with individuality and class.

A garment does not begin with measuring, but with listening

At De Oost Bespoke Tailoring, bespoke tailoring does not begin with a measuring tape but with a conversation.
Before we touch a fabric or discuss a model, we want to understand why someone wants to have something made to measure.

Our intake form is designed to make that first step a conscious one, as an invitation to reflection, collaboration and care.

It is not an administrative form, but a tool to reach the essence of bespoke tailoring: personal attention, insight and craftsmanship.

Craftsmanship begins with listening

A good garment does not arise from standard questions, but from understanding.

That is why we do not only ask about measurements, fabrics and styles, but also about the occasion, meaning and intention behind the request.

Is it a wedding, a new position or simply the need for clothing that aligns better with who you are?

That context makes the difference between a beautiful suit and a personal garment.

At De Oost, we believe that a good suit should not only fit the body, but also the moment, the person and the story behind it.

A conscious first step

The intake form helps our clients pause and reflect on their style, expectations and goals.
Many people discover while filling it in that they have never thought about clothing in this way before.

That moment of awareness is important, it turns a purchase into a process and clothing into an expression of self-knowledge.
That is what we call dressing consciously, clothing that arises from attention, not from habit.

Dressing consciously does not begin with choosing a fabric, but with understanding yourself.

Collaboration and trust

By gaining insight early into what someone finds important, we can advise better, think along more honestly and sometimes even surprise with unexpected suggestions.
The form is therefore not a formality, but a tool to make our collaboration more personal and effective.

Every client is different, and that requires attention, not assumptions.
By listening well, we can create a garment that not only looks good but also carries meaning.

More than measuring

Bespoke tailoring is not only about centimetres, but about character.

A good conversation about fit, fabric feel or moment of wear often says more than a list of measurements.
Our intake form lays the foundation for that conversation, so that the first appointment feels like a meeting, not a sales moment.

That is the strength of bespoke tailoring, taking the time to create something that truly belongs to you.

Dressing consciously begins here

With this form, we want to show that bespoke tailoring at De Oost revolves around personal attention, craftsmanship and awareness.
It is the first step in a journey in which we work together on clothing that lasts, in style, in comfort and in meaning.
