Made-to-Measure Suits

These are the tailors who work from a cloth book and your own measurements rather than a house size run, the more traditional end of Swiss menswear next to the off-the-peg rental shops. Expect two or three fitting appointments spread over several weeks, a real conversation about fabric weight and weave before cut is even discussed, and a finished suit that belongs to you afterwards rather than going back on a rail. Because the process runs on fittings rather than a single visit, book further ahead than you would for a rental, particularly for a groom based outside the city. Ask how many fittings are included in the quoted price and what happens if the wedding date moves.
