While the weather continues to turn us into we popsicles, you are going to need the best warm jacket to get you through. 

Winter’s on the way in and so are the winter fashion trends. Just like the seasons, clothing trends can change and fluctuate.

With autumn now here, the weather is a mixed bag – the days are getting shorter, the temperature is chilling but the sun's still shinning.

At RJB, we’re proud to cater to customers from all walks of life. From business to show business, art and all in-between, we love helping men and women dress for the occasions where they want to show up looking and feeling their best.

Throughout the years of high fashion, the women’s suit has been the ultimate power play. A classically-male form of dress, bold pioneers have flipped this gender convention on its head, on runways, as presidential candidates and in offices around the world. 

This is a process we love deeply. With close to 25 years of experience tailoring suits and bespoke shirts in New Zealand, we’ve helped countless men like you discover their fashion potential and experience that sought-after feeling of wearing a suit crafted just for them.
