What is Bespoke Tailoring?
Our True Bespoke is hand cut, majority hand sewn and ethically produced in the UK. The starting prices include cloth, house linings and customisable options such as coloured buttonholes.
Our bespoke service is ideal for extra special events such as your wedding, a royal event… Or even if you want to bring a totally unique idea to life!
Prices Start From £3500
The Process
Cloth & Lining
Firstly, with our assistance & guidance, you choose the cloth from our extensive range of pattern books. We’ll help to ensure that it not only has the look that you’re after, but also that it is fit for purpose… There is no point buying the finest woven cashmere if it has to withstand the daily commute, or selecting a heavy worsted wool for your beach wedding! The lining, although only seen in glimpses can be equally as important. There’s a lot to choose from (colour, patterns and durability all being factors in your decision), but don’t worry if you’re not sure where to start. We’re experts in not only tailoring, but also helping our customers whittle down what it is they want!
We are constantly updating our range, working with merchant and mills like Holland & Sherry, Scabal, Bateman Ogden and Huddersfield Fine Worsted to name a few.
Style
Once you’ve chosen your fabrics, it’s time for the finer details. With our bespoke option, it really is what it says on the tin, so every detail is open for discussion – no matter how big or small. We’ll talk you through the process, working our way through style books so you can start to visualise how your suit will start to tae shape. Instagram & Pinterest is a great place to start for inspiration – don’t worry if you’re not sure of the names of any defining features of the suits you see, we’ll help you along the way and be able to see the types of style you like.
Measurements & Cutting
Once we know the cloths & styles you’re choosing, it’s time to talk fit and cut. The best way to do this is to talk before we measure. By asking a few questions about how you like something to fit, we are able to understand what you need and we can measure accordingly.
Fitting
With our bespoke service, we utilise a number of fitting options, Skeleton fit, Pocket baste and Forward try ons, all very technical sounding but all are there to get the best fitting suit. We don’t always do all three but we do always do the right number to get the right fit.
The Final Try On
Once we have completed the fitting process and made the required changes to your garments, and also to your pattern for any future suits, we will invite you in for your final fitting. You’ll leave with your handmade, finely crafted bespoke suit!
