How to pick a bespoke tailor

If you are looking to buy a bespoke suit you need ensure that the tailors you are investing in do actually do bespoke suits. The best way to do this is to ask to

speak to the cutter. You as an individual should have a personal pattern that is right for you. These patterns

should belong to you and nobody else.

The tailor should actually sew the garment by hand. They should only be using the highest quality

materials even the small little things such as the linings and buttons they all add to the completed

finish. A professional tailor should express themselves within the work they produce.

Making sure it’s handmade is the most important part in the making of the suit. Another tip is do not go rooting through magazines for information they are writers not cutters. Also remember a fused canvas looks brilliant when it’s all new

and fresh but a few years down the line it can become unstuck.

Remember to check for any traces of glue in your suit. This is when you know it has been made cheaply and will not last

very long at all. The garment should have a well and structured shape and the tailor should know your body’s

quirks in able for them to get this right.

Last of all the best suit should be known as ‘a second skin’. You should feel special and confident when wearing your new suit, you should feel very comfortable and not have to fiddle with your collar or be pulling your shirt down. Check the arm holes are not too tight; remember it should fit you

like a glove.
