Is Custom Clothing for you?
Are you considering purchasing custom clothing? Or wondering
if custom clothing is for you? Here
are some items to consider.
Are you an easy fit? Can you generally walk right
into a store a buy off the rack without too much dissatisfaction?
Are you satisfied with just the basics in suits, coats
and shirtings? Then perhaps an off-the-rack, or ‘ready-made’
garment is all you need. But if you are looking for
more, custom clothing may be the way to go.
Most of our clients use us for custom, or ‘made-to-measure’
clothing, but not all. You may consider the purchase
of custom clothing for the following reasons:
-
Fabric choices
With custom clothing
you literally choose
from hundreds of bolts
of fabrics available,
whether it is for shirts,
pants, suits, coats,
etc. Then a pattern
is made specifically
for you from the fabric
you choose. This also
makes it easy to coordinate
outfits to make you
stand out amongst your
peers and competitors.
-
Styling
This is a key element
for many people. Do
you want plain front
pants? A 2 or 3-button
coat? Deeper pleats?
A specific width of
pant leg? A specific
lining in your coats
or pants? A particular
type of collar on your
shirts? These
are just a few of the
options available when
you choose custom
clothing.
-
Price ranges
You can invest in the
classics, or literally
the best fabrics available
in the world. It is
totally up to you.
Whatever your comfort
zone may be regarding
price, you can find
it with your choices
in custom clothing.
For example, you can
find custom
suits from
our line anywhere from
$650 to $3000.
-
Fit
Perhaps the most important
element of them all.
Dozens of measurements
are taken for your
specific body type,
and the pattern is
made specifically for
you. Custom clothing
recommendations are
made to compliment
your style and desires
it fit. Just think
of the fit problems
with which you struggle,
and in almost every
case, that problem
can be solved through
custom clothing.
Perhaps custom clothing has not
been your choice with previous purchases, but you desire
to project a certain image. Custom clothing may be
the way to go for you. But, as I tell many of our clients,
be prepared. Once you get suits, coats, pants or shirtings
custom made specifically for you, you may find it hard
to return to your standard off-the-rack choices.
