The Prize
The Lady or Gentleman to be successfully drawn will win an Emma Willis Bespoke Shirt, who has just been coined as "one of the best shirtmakers in the world" by The Financial Times, How to Spend It. Whether it is for yourself or a wonderful present to a loved friend or family member, it is a fantastic experience to get a Bespoke shirt fitted in the world's epicentre of Bespoke tailoring.
We will contact the winner to organise the best date and time to suit you for your Bespoke appointment at Emma Willis's new Bespoke shop on Old Burlington Street in London. Your measurements will be taken as you enjoy a glass of champagne and delve into styling options and fabrics with Emma.
Your measurements will be sent to Emma Willis' Bespoke Cutters in her factory in Gloucester, where your shirt will be cut and made by hand to your measurements and personal preferences.
The first appointment is shortly followed by a fitting, where you try on the shirt and we see if there are any alterations to be made, if not, you can take it away with you straight away.
The Cause
Style For Soldiers is a charity set up by Emma Willis MBE in 2008.
Emma Willis’ business as a Bespoke Shirtmaker on Jermyn Street with a factory in Gloucester, meant that she was able to visit DMRC Headley Court, from 2008 onwards, Fitting the most seriously injured service personnel with Bespoke tailor-made shirts. This restored an element of pride in their appearance and helped regain confidence following injuries, often both physical and psychological. Style For Soldiers has also provided suits, hats, ties and walking sticks.
“I do not have any fears about my body image and have loads of confidence now in knowing, I will be looking smart… and looking the part.”
Style For Soldiers mainly now focuses its time on hosting the largest gatherings for injured service personnel as reunions for the veterans, their partners and children. They host three reunions a year that play a vital role in their mental health care, helping to re-build social confidence and prevent feelings of isolation.
“I am a huge advocate of if you look good and you feel good then you will perform.”
The Reunions that Style For Soldiers seek funding for are often the only time our injured veterans feel the confidence to socialise, encouraged and surrounded by a familiar and understanding community, seeing old friends and meeting new in an easily accessible environment.
