Experience Nottingham’s Finest Made to Measure Tailoring


Ash Gangotra, award-winning menswear designer and founder of Gangotra 1916, is renowned for crafting luxury Made to Measure suits in Nottingham. His bespoke tailoring blends heritage craftsmanship with modern elegance, defining the city’s sartorial standard.
With over 35 years shaping British menswear, Ash’s legacy is stitched into every garment. His innovative designs have been sold and adorned worldwide, reflecting a deep passion for fashion and an unwavering attention to detail.
His career includes pivotal roles such as founding member and designer of Liam Gallagher’s Pretty Green label, Design Director of Bosideng UK and a creative force behind Holland Esquire. Today, Gangotra 1916 stands as a tribute to his family’s tailoring heritage and a beacon of sartorial excellence.
Rooted in a proud lineage of master tailors and shaped by decades of devotion to the craft, Gangotra 1916 is more than a Made to Measure tailoring brand, it is a living tribute. Each garment honours the founder’s late grandfather, a first generation tailor born in 1916, whose legacy stitches tradition into every seam.



The label’s signature hues, purple and yellow are drawn from the rare Gangotra Flower, a bloom found only in these two colours. Native to the Gangotra region of the Himalayas in Northern India, this flower not only inspires the brand’s identity, but also reflects the ancestral cradle of the Gangotra name.
Just as the flower is singular in its beauty, every tailored piece is crafted to be one of a kind, an emblem of heritage, individuality and timeless elegance.
