Ceremonial Robes and Livery Gowns

Walters & Co is proud to have manufactured and supplied the Livery Companies of The City of London for over ten years, and the many appreciative comments we have had from Companies lead us to believe we know our trade well.

London Livery Companies can trace their roots back to fraternal organisations established during medieval times. These evolved into guilds that regulated the trade in the City under the management of the Lord Mayor of London and the Aldermen.  By the 15th Century distinctive robes incorporating coloured hoods and armorial bearings identified different guilds and the members.

We keep details of Gown & Robe designs for most Livery companies in London and take special care attending to the quality and detail of Gowns & Robes, ensuring the integrity of the historical pageantry is maintained.

We advise on modernisation of current day robes in the City.  We also quote for restoration and repair of gowns.

If you are a recently chartered company requiring expert knowledge of Livery needs value our staff will be able to help.

We look forward to receiving your enquiry upon which we contact you to discuss your requirements.
