Royal Warrants
Gieves & Hawkes have a strong history of both service to the military, and hence to the British Royalty. Hawkes & Co. were granted their first Royal Warrant in 1809, during the reign of King George III.
Gieves & Hawkes presently have all three main Royal Warrants, appointed to HM The Queen, HRH The Duke of Edinburgh and HRH The Prince of Wales.

Famous quotes containing the word royal:
“High from the summit of a craggy cliff,
Hung o’er the deep, such as amazing frowns
On utmost Kilda’s shore, whose lonely race
Resign the setting sun to Indian worlds,
The royal eagle draws his vigorous young”
—James Thomson (1700–1748)
