Bespoke suits rose to prominence in the men’s fashion world in the early years of the 19th century, and have become a fashion staple since then. Suits boost class and confidence for it conceals flawed body parts like droopy shoulders, long arms and short legs.
New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/14/2014 -- The best bespoke suit doesn’t come cheap; as a matter of fact a designer bespoke suit may cost several thousands of dollars. Some may find it a wise investment for these are long lasting.
Bespoke suits are not the type of clothing that a man will wear on a daily basis, not unless he’s a CEO of a fortune 500 company or perhaps a celebrity who’s ready to strut his way through the red carpet. The bottom line is, a bespoke suit that a man will wear should mirror his sense of style and personality, one of the reasons why it is pricey - it has that personal touch. In addition, making a bespoke suit is labor intensive and can take up to a couple of months to create one. If taken care properly, bespoke suits will last for 10 to 20 years.
Rush is never in the vocabulary of tailors who are in the bespoke industry. That being said, men who wish to have a bespoke suit, be it for special occasion, business, pleasure, or somewhere in between must bring a pocket full of patience, for the consultation alone will take at least 25 minutes. Then the measuring will take 15 minutes the least. The first fitting will come afterwards, which will another 25 to 30 minutes. Expect twenty body measurements to be taken and two to four fitting prior to enjoying the vibe and benefits of this garment.
Tailors and designers will attempt to improve their client’s posture and there will also be a thorough checking of the garments finishing. Most tailors make sure that their clients are satisfied with their creation, and so are they – a reputable tailor will make necessary adjustments and modifications to the garment until it appeals to both party’s taste. Often times, tailors give advice on how to take proper care of their creation to assure that it will last long and will justify its cost.
The demand for bespoke suits calls the attention of con artists and “wanna be’s” who apply glue substances to the garment. Yes, the product may appear like high-end ones but chances are this will easily deteriorate over time – not giving justice to its price. Experts advised prospective buyers to inquire how much handwork is in the suits and ask whether they are made within the premises or shipped off.
