What should I expect during my first bespoke suit fitting?
During your first fitting, expect us to discuss the occasion you are shopping for, your current style/wardrobe, along with any fitting challenges you may have had in the past. We will then help you choose the perfect fabric for your garment, and discuss design details such as lapel style, linings, buttons, pocket styles and more.

Once we have designed your garments, we will take up to 40 detailed measurements while analyzing your unique posture. We are now ready to craft your one of a kind garments!
