Our Roots

Aristocracy London was founded by Lazaros Tyrekidis, a London-based entrepreneur who turned his passion for stylish suits into a luxury menswear fashion house.

Lazaros was born and raised in Kampanis, a farming village in northern Greece. Growing up, he noticed how people would return home after a long day and change into their finest clothes before meeting friends and family in the village square. It wasn’t about showing off. It was a deeply rooted expression of pride and respect for themselves, for others and for the occasion.

That stayed with him.

After completing his studies, he moved to London, where he built a career in business and eventually held senior leadership roles. Yet his love for suits remained. One thing that struck him was that, when it came to sartorial choices, most men played it safe and ended up being “just another suit”. He saw an opportunity to do things differently.

He brought together a team of designers, tailors and manufacturers who shared his vision, and in 2019 Aristocracy London was born.

“Aristocracy literally translates as the power of the excellent. A modern gentleman is not defined by the circumstances or privileges he was born into, but by the manners he develops and the choices he makes in life. Similarly, style is not a skill one inherits, but an attitude one acquires.”

Our Mission

Aristocracy London was built around two principles: modern tailoring and personalised service.

From our limited edition Prêt à Porter collections to our Made to Measure service, every garment combines excellent craftsmanship, flattering fit and elegant individuality. Beyond the suit, we create shirts, shoes and accessories to complete every look.

Through appointments at our London and Manchester showrooms and ateliers, our dedicated stylists provide a personalised experience, helping every client find the right style for the occasion.

What truly brings our designs to life is the people who wear them. You are dreamers, doers, thinkers and leaders, and we make the suits that accompany you on your journey.

Aristocracy London’s philosophy can be summed up in the words of Oscar Wilde: “You can never be overdressed or overeducated.”
