5 Benefits of a Custom-Made Suit
Before we list the benefits of a custom-made suit, let’s start by defining what exactly is a custom-made suit. A custom-made suit (also known as a bespoke suit) is a unique design. It is a one-of-a-kind suit that is made personally for you only. The whole suit is crafted from your exact measurements – over 35 measurements here at The Tailory – and your personal style preferences regarding cut, fabric, colour and pattern.
A custom-made suit is incomparable to all other suiting options. Similar to having a house, or a car, custom-built to your specifications. There are always far more pros and benefits to choosing the custom-made option of any investment. We’re going to list five benefits of custom-made suiting below.
1. It Will Fit You To A Tee
While you may have managed to find suits off the rack before, the fit of a custom-made suit cannot compare. There will be no baggy or tight shoulders, long or short trousers, and every movement will feel comfortable without restriction. What’s more, your best features will be accentuated
2. Peace Of Mind
It will be quicker and less effort than searching for an off-the-rack suit. Finding the perfect suit can take a long time, especially when you travel from store to store looking for a fit and style that you like.
With a custom-made suit, the tailor can determine precisely what you want and get straight to crafting it for you. This can save you time, money and effort in the long run, compared to buying off-the-rack suits and spending money on many alterations.
3. Broad Range Of High-Quality Materials And Best-In-Class Craftsmanship
Investing in a custom-made suit from The Tailory means you get to pick your very favorite materials from our Essentials Collection, which ranges from Super 120s to Super 150s, sourced from numerous reputable Asian mills.
We also carry super 110’s-Super 180s branded European wools, including Vitale Barberis, Loro Piana, Scabal, Dormeuil, Mazzoni, Policarpo and Escorial. In comparison, off-the-rack suits are often made in factories from the lowest costing polyester blends.
Fast fashion is cheap fashion. We have detailed knowledge of our materials and can advise what will look the most flattering on your figure, color-and texture-wise.
4. You Can Relish In Your Personalized Suit
Choosing to have a custom-made suit is like choosing the ultimate in personalization; it allows you to flaunt your individuality, express your unique style and feel confident with your best foot forward.
From the lapel shapes to the number of pockets, colors and patterns, there are endless opportunities for personalizing your custom-made suit at The Tailory. Every pattern is digitally cut for every client, meaning no template pattern is ever used.
Our consultants will guide you through the design process and help you personalize each piece to ensure it meets your lifestyle requirements and personal preferences. All consultations begin with your own Pinterest board to help start a visual dialogue.
5. Your Custom-Made Suit Will Be Constructed To Last You A Lifetime
Your custom-made suit is a true investment piece. Instead of a temporary off-the-rack suit that you may start to dislike or will never truly fit you and your style preferences, a custom-made suit will be made specifically for your measurements and style choices. It will also be made from only the finest materials for longevity.
