What happens at your fitting?

First thing’s first: we want to know why you’ve walked in to our studio and what you want to look like.


Landed a promotion and need a new suit?

Have a special event coming up?

Or do you want to work with tailors who share your obsession with details?


Once we know the reason for the garment, we follow a five-step process to guide your selections and personalise your look. This process is based on everything we have learned about garment construction since 1999, and is what sets us apart. 

Step 1: Construction and style 

First we consider the overall look: the shape of the garment, what you will be wearing it for and the right construction for your natural proportions. Then we move on to details such as lining, canvassing and pockets. 

To get the fabric selection right, we narrow down your options by colours that enhance your complexion, texture that accentuates the shape of the suit and cloth that is durable enough for the purpose of the garment. Finally, you select complementary finishes including buttons, cuffs and monogramming. 

Step 2: Fabric and finishes 

Step 3: Measure and fit 

Custom clothes should move effortlessly with you – and that’s why this step is the most in-depth. We take detailed measurements, paying attention to proportion, length and balance. Then once you are measured up, we test the fit against your natural movements to create the basis of your pattern. 

At our adjoining alterations studio, many repairs we perform are due to incorrect care. To ensure this doesn’t happen to you, we explain storage, dry cleaning (you can overdo it), ironing and letting your garments breathe. You don’t have to remember all this, because we give you a copy of The Suit Book that outlines these details too.   

Step 4: Maintenance

Step 5: Capsule wardrobe

With your measurements and style preferences on file, building out your wardrobe is a straightforward task. With the right mix of garments for different occasions – all in complementary styles and colours – getting dressed becomes simple and one of the most enjoyable parts of each day.

"Outstanding custom suit and tailoring…


Having trusted them with my alterations for a while, I decided to try their custom-made service and was not disappointed with their ability to deliver. Clare’s expertise and care given to helping me customise (from a large selection of options) and find the right cut and fabric to fit me perfectly was unrivalled. 


Also with a few fittings, it guaranteed a great fit that provided not only a professional result but also gave me outstanding confidence in the suit. Would recommend to anyone looking to add an impressive suit to their wardrobe."

- Taylor Crydon

We wrote the book on suits

Should that crease be there? How long should my trousers be? Why won’t my jacket sit properly? Our founder Clare heard these questions so often, she wrote a book to help you buy better suits. 


Using real examples and illustrations, Clare outlines what to look for and all the questions you didn’t know you should be asking when trying on a suit. These easy-to-follow tips will ensure you never buy the wrong suit again.


When you design a suit with us, you receive a free copy.
