BESPOKE TAILORING for
WOMEN
redefining elegance & empowerment
Four words that would describe our approach to women’s tailoring are beauty, grace, elegance and empowerment. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - it’s not what one does, but how one looks in doing it - and this applies equally to women…
A good wardrobe can work wonders in building confidence and
Bespoke tailoring can take it to the next level.
The experiences for men and women when stepping
into our atelier are very different.
When a man arrives in need of a suit, lounge or business, a cloth is chosen first. This would typically be black, navy, grey or even variations of pinstripes. If he is of a rare “peacock variety”, then a bold check might be enlisted. For style, a man may typically go for a two-button, single-breasted with two back vents. On occasion, one might opt for a double-breasted jacket that would typically be paired with flat-fronted trousers or a slightly high-waisted pair with pleasers. It is quite a prescriptive affair.
Now, when a woman entertains the idea of a suit, even the measurement requirements are much more detailed.
The range of cloth to choose from becomes much more extensive
in colour, pattern and texture.
Let’s not forget the linings.
For referencing style, there are so many different options just for the jacket alone. It can be paired with a skirt, trousers or why not both? Even shorts are perfectly fine.
In the age of rapidly changing fashion trends and rising awareness of the investment in quality pieces, a bespoke suit is the best way to build the perfect lasting wardrobe. A three-piece suit could be worn in a formal business context or worn separately at those “business casual” events where you want to let your hair down.
With a variety of options of cloth, styles, and linings put together just for you…
there is much more scope for self-expression.
Whatever the ultimate choice of cloth or design is, I try to ensure the most flattering outcome for a person’s unique shape and size.
