The price will vary depending on the cloth and trimmings you select but for a 2-Piece suit prices start at £990 for Made to Measure and £650 for Made to Order . There is a more comprehensive pricelist here.
The main difference is the way the garment is constructed.
A bespoke suit has every stitch done by hand: hand sewn buttonholes, hand felled linings, hand padded lapels. A made-to-measure suit uses sophisticated machinery to make the process a little quicker.
Bespoke is also cut by hand whereas made-to-measure uses cutting edge laser technology.
It’s good to get to grips with what goes on inside a jacket, is it fully canvassed, half canvassed or fused?
Does the suit have inlay for future alterations? If you are investing in a custom suit you want to know it will survive a few big lunches.
Who is making my suit? Will it be made onsite or outsourced. If it will be outsourced make sure the tailor is clear about whether it will be machine or handmade. Plenty of tailors market their product as Bespoke (and therefore charge a premium) when actually they are being machine made.
We have hundreds of cloth swatches from multiple merchants around Europe but if we don’t have something you are looking for we will source it for you. Recent examples of this include Hemp linen, family Tweed and recycled silk.
