Bespoke tailoring works together with a gentleman, making each commission unique to his taste and form. Some particularities of our bespoke methods are detailed below.

Bespoke Pattern Cutting
Each pattern is drawn according to your measurements by hand onto paper. This ensures that each garment is unique to your body, and that future commissions are faster once the pattern is finalized. Inlay (additional fabric) is included in the garment to allow for adjustments during the fitting process, and throughout the life of the garment.

Basting and Fitting
The garment is assembled with temporary hand stitching (basting), and fitted twice to ensure a perfect finish. Details such as pocket placement and lapel style can also be adjusted during the fitting process, resulting in an excellently proportioned, comfortable final garment.

Floating Canvas
Shaped and attached by hand, the floating horse hair canvas brings structure to the suit without making it too rigid. Minimal fusing is used for support only. This prevents bubbling, allows the garment to shape to your body over time, and keeps it light, flexible and breathable.

Hand Stitches
Hand stitching details are sometimes functional, sometimes decorative, and a key signature of bespoke. These include D stitches to strengthen the pockets, shanked buttons which are more secure and lie neatly, and my signature bar tacks, among others.
