“I believe in personality. But the tragedy of the twentieth century is that the development of human beings lags far behind the growth of their undertakings. We live in an age of great events and little men; and if we are not to become the slaves of our own systems or sink oppressed among the mechanism we have ourselves created, it will only be by the bold efforts of originality, by repeated experiment, by free and continual discussion of all things, and by the dispassionate consideration of the results of sustained and unflinching thought.” {March 31, 1934}

Gieves & Hawkes are proud to have been granted the three Royal Warrants of Appointment to HM The Queen, Queen Elisabeth, HRH The Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Philip, and HRH The Prince of Wales, Prince Charles. These three Royal Warrants are just the latest example of 200 years of continued service to successive British Monarchs. The first such warrant was granted in 1809 during the reign of King George III.
