Sutlers Stores celebrates new US contract win

Following on from supplying Hollywood blockbuster ‘Cold Mountain’ with costumes and props, Sutlers Stores has won a contract with American channel PBS (Public Broadcast Service) for a four-part mini-series, ‘The War That Made America’.
Commemorating the 250th anniversary of the French and Indian War, The War That Made America combines the power of drama with meticulous documentary accuracy, including the paramount importance of the authenticity and convincing quality needed in all costumes and props supplied. With the help of Sutlers Stores this problem was quickly overcome.
Sutlers Stores are well reputed within the film industry as being able to supply an integrated service second to none. A Sutler spokesperson said: “Our problem solving skills astonish many of our clients as we do so much more than supply the costumes and props for which we are contracted. Our wealth of historical knowledge, within the worlds of both military and civilian costume, coupled with our skills as tailors and costume designers, and our depth of experience and expertise within the historical period 1700-1950’s, sees us with a new and integrated service which is unique within our industry.”
