Two well known prestigious events, on the same date, on two different sides of the Atlantic. At Morts & More we love a red carpet event as it tends to call for some of the best tailored suits. London is well known for its roots in tailoring, so you can understand our interest. It has been reported that the Brits triumphed at the Grammys, where as the Americans stormed the BAFTAs (awards wise of course).
Whether ‘Made to measure’, Bespoke or ‘Off the rack’, we thought it would be interesting to have a look at how the suits faired on either red carpet. Now we’re very aware that both events had different dress codes but thought it would be interesting either way.
Let us know what you think of each look and which red carpet impressed the best overall.
