  • The next stop on the road to the Goodwood Revival for James Cottingham is to get a proper, bespoke suit made from Savile Row heritage firm Henry Poole. There is no one better to get James ready than Managing Director Simon Cundey, who is also a car aficionado and a member of the Royal Automobile Club.
    Everything about the Goodwood Revival is set in period. Not just the vintage racing automobiles on showcase at the Goodwood Revival is from the 1950's and 1960's, but everything. From the way in which the tickets are printed to what the spectators and race car drivers are wearing. It is, therefore, important that James be kitted out in the proper attire.
    At the same time, back over at DK Engineering, final preparations are well underway on the cars that will be traveling down to Goodwood Revival. This includes the incredible Ferrari 365 Daytona that James and I will be traveling to the Revival in.
    DK Engineering are vintage car restoration specialists, with a particular focus on Ferrari.
    About This Series:
    For years now, I have been exploring the world of quality, craftsmanship, and tradition. This journey has taken me from some of the world's most highly regarded bespoke tailoring houses, all the way to a proper shooting estate in Scotland.
    I have come to believe that nobody does tradition better than the British! From dressing in the proper attire for a given occasion, through to the liturgy of the ceremonial; there is almost always an etiquette routed in tradition at its core.
    In this series we explore what could arguably be one of the most exciting of the British traditions: racing.
    I’ve been invited by my good friend James Cottingham, to join him as he prepares to race in the Goodwood Revival, the country’s most important vintage car racing event.
    So, strap yourselves in and enjoy as we explore Britain’s golden era of racing!

      The trick to increase subscription is to embed english close caption into the upload to UA-cam. This allows the end user to use Google Translate in what ever language they speak. Ask Life of Boris if you don't believe me.

    I never forget the day when I was 5 yrs old and heard my dad say to my mom, “I will not spend $300 on a dress that I could do a better job making myself.” I remember my mother crying and thinking my dad was insane, and my dad actually being serious at the same time. Long story short. My dad measured my mother. He bought fabric. He drew and cut out a pattern. He then traced the pattern on the fabric much like the tailor and cutter do in these videos. I remember him doing several fittings with her, and he made several adjustments. When he finished my mother cried again because it was the best fitting dress she’s ever had. Mom and I said, “what in the hell just happened?” Was dad Ralph Lauren or Calvin Klein in another life or something? I called my grandmother. We told her dad was some kind of tailoring genius. She laughed and told us, “ your father had all his clothes tailored made from raw materials as a kid. He was both a tailoring and upholstery apprentice throughout his high school and college years. The dude spent 50 yrs being a CPA, but he had a love for tailoring clothes. I was absolutely amazed by this kind of talent and skill. These videos really remind me of my dad when I was a kid. Crazy stuff!

    I'd like to clarify that you don't *have* to dress up in period attire for the Goodwood Revival. It's encouraged, but definitely not mandatory. I'd say about 60% of spectators don't dress up.
