“Bonfire of the Vanities” inspiration Ed Hayes thought Anderson & Sheppard was holding his suits hostage during a legal dispute.
ordered the suits in question a year and half ago, when Anderson & Sheppard was making one of its regular sales trips to New York from its fabled shop in London. He picked out the material: gray for one, blue for the other, both with white pinstripes. And he was fitted as he had often been over more than four decades as a customer.
Hayes told The Daily Beast that he suspected Anderson & Sheppard was holding onto the suits because it was not faring well in a suit of another kind— the one he brought against the firm in a Manhattan court last fall. Prince Charles joined the roster when Princess Diana introduced him to the shop in 1983. It officially became his favorite suit maker, as attested by the royal coat of arms and the words “By Appointment to HRH the Prince of Wales” on the shop’s plate-glass window. Hayes may have been raised in Queens, but he is confident that the suits look even better on him than on Charles.
Hayes described his style as the “Ed Hayes-Norman Halsey-Fred Astaire look.” He explained that Anderson & Sheppard suits have soft shoulders and a soft front and none of the usual lining, not even horsehair. “Thereafter, I did not receive any dividends despite my stock ownership,” Hayes’ lawsuit says. “The business had been extremely profitable when it was being run by Halsey, but under Ms. Rowland it appears to realize no profits, though its directors are being well compensated.”Hayes requested and received an annual report for the period ending Jan. 31, 2021.
Hutcher filed papers seeking to have the lawsuit dismissed on the grounds that it should have been brought in England.
