TAILORED FORMAL SUITS

Tailor Made Formal Suits

Your versatile suit for cocktail parties and slightly less formal events. This style of suit is not quite a dinner suit or tuxedo but a tailored formal suit which can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion.

Tailored Formal Suits

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. 

Step 2: Fabric and finishes

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 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. 

Step 4: Maintenance

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 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.
