Defining Tailor-Made Suits

The cut of a suit determines its final shape and for the body shapes it will work best with. This cut comes from the silhouette (aka the pattern) of a suit which is created from a canvas fitting and acts as the foundation of the suit. There are 3 ways to make a suit, namely:

Ready-Made

Ready-Made

A ready-made or off-the-shelf suit denotes a suit that is pre- made to certain sizing block specifications where with each increase in size the measurements increase a proportional amount. These are usually machine made in large factories in bulk and are sold at a lower price point.

Made-To-Measure

Made-To-Measure

Describes a suit that may be partly handmade but mostly machine made however it is a suit that uses measurements not shaping to achieve custom styles lengths and horizontal measurements. Usually manufacturers will make the garments individually but have a bank of patterns they work off to pair the closest pattern to the clients desired measurements with adjusted measurements

Bespoke

Bespoke

The epitome of the suiting world; these suits are entirely hand made with many hours of labour going into creating a unique to the owner garment. The term was coined from the pattern being cut for the individual and as such that pattern is ‘bespoken’ for them as a one of a kind. The process usually takes multiple fittings and shaping’s by a highly skilled tailor where the suit is built up in layers and progresses after every fitting.
