Why the cloth behind a robe matters

More than a garment —
the material defines comfort, presence and longevity.

A robe is worn when decisions are made, degrees are conferred
and faith is visible. The fabric it is cut from must support
these moments — not distract from them.

Noble fibres, engineered for ceremony

We start with the finest Merino wool, luxurious silk and precious cashmere. Every cloth is specified in detail – micron fineness, weight, weave and finish.

Comfort under lights, robes in motion

Our fabrics are woven to regulate temperature, wick moisture and recover quickly from creasing – even during long sittings or processions.

Tailored to judicial, academic and clerical roles

Each fabric line is developed for a specific context: sharper silhouettes for judicial robes, flowing movement for academic gowns, gravity and drape for clerical vestments.

Trusted where decisions and degrees are made

TIMELESS | bespoken fabrics are chosen for robes worn by federal judges, constitutional courts, deans and bishops around the world.

TIMELESS | bespoken signature fabrics

Our own ceremonial cloths

We have developed a family of proprietary fabrics
that represent the majority of all TIMELESS | bespoken robes.

Designed and specified by us.
Woven by leading European mills.
Finished to our exact standards.

Silver Wool fabric swatch
TIMELESS | bespoken

Silver Wool

Ultralight Merino softness for understated authority.

Silver Wool is our signature Merino cloth — a refined twill with an almost liquid drape. At approximately 150 g/m², it weighs significantly less than traditional robe fabrics. The result: a cloth that moves naturally with the body, not against it.

Ideal for long sittings, processions, ceremonies under lights.

Gold Silk fabric swatch

Gold Silk

Our richest, most luminous ceremonial cloth.

Gold Silk combines superfine Merino wool with silk to create the most opulent sheen in our collection. The surface catches light like water — making it the perfect choice for robes that will be photographed, filmed and admired.

When presence must be visible from the last row.

Royal Regalia

A Merino-cashmere blend for robes of quiet, royal dignity.

Royal Regalia was developed for moments of particular solemnity — robes worn by senior judges, bishops and dignitaries at the most significant ceremonies.

The cashmere touch adds a dimension of softness that must be felt to be understood.

In good company

Working with the world's most respected mills

For certain commissions, we also cut from cloths by the same mills that supply Savile Row, London's bespoke tailors and ceremonial dress houses across Europe.

Holland & Sherry
Savile Row, London · Since 1836

The last surviving cloth merchant from London's historic Golden Square. For nearly two centuries, the tailors of Savile Row have trusted this name for their finest commissions.

Featured: Royal Mile — Super 140's Merino Wool

Scabal
Brussels · Since 1938

The house that invented the fabric bunch — now the industry standard worldwide. Scabal's Yorkshire mill is renowned for transforming ultrafine wool into cloth of exceptional quality.

Featured: Capri Cool Wool — Super 130's Merino

Loro Piana
Quarona, Italy · Since 1924

The world's foremost purveyor of cashmere. Holders of the world record for the finest spun wool fibre: 11.8 microns — thinner than a human hair by a factor of seven.

Featured: Tasmanian & Ecclesiastical Blends
