A tailor who crafts custom suits is called a “bespoke tailor.” They specialise in creating individually cut garments tailored to an individual’s unique measurements, body shape and specific style.
There are three main types of tailoring: Bespoke tailoring involves crafting a garment from scratch based on individual measurements with more personalisation details, made-to-measure adjusts from pre-existing patterns for customisation, and ready-to-wear refers to mass-produced garments in standard sizes which are off-the-racks or available for purchase online. Budget and delivery timeline should also be factored in when considering these options.
“Tailor-made” typically implies adjustments to a pre-existing pattern by a skilled tailor, possibly with some customization. In contrast, “custom-made” suggests a more extensive and personalized process, often involving creating a garment from scratch based on individual measurements and design preferences. Clarifying with the tailor about the specific level of customization is advisable when considering either option.
A custom suit is often referred to as a “bespoke” suit. The term “bespoke” denotes a suit that is made to an individual’s specific measurements and preferences. It involves a detailed and personalized tailoring process, resulting in a unique garment that is crafted to fit the wearer perfectly.
