Here are ten reasons to invest in a hand-tailored, bespoke suit.
Client Testimonial - Jonas Valanciunas
Top draft pick Jonas Valanciunas comes from the old country, and he likes things done the traditional way - with quality and craftsmanship. The NBA has a policy to keep its players well dressed. And the best player in Lithuania deserves the best fit in a custom suit made by Raj Singh. Standing almost 7-feet tall, Jonas cannot buy off-the-rack. He needs the skills of a bespoke tailor to compliment his unique, athletic frame.

01. The Initial Consultation
zhlédnutí 8KPřed 12 lety
The bespoke process is all about choice. Your first visit to the tailor shop will introduce you to a world of options. Here you decide on colour, pattern, fabric, shape, size and fit. Once all the elements are chosen, the tailor will take the proper measurements and begin cutting a pattern for your suit - a pattern unique to one person... you.

02. Drawing & Cutting The Pattern

After the initial consultation the tailor will take the measurements and create a pattern for your suit. Once this pattern is drawn and cut, it is archived by the tailor for future use. For more information on bespoke tailoring visit www.customtailors.ca.
03. The Canvas: A Skeleton For Your Suit

The canvas inside a wool suit is sturdy and flexible. This material allows the suit to hold it's shape over years of wear, while remaining comfortable and well fitted. For more information about hand-made suits visit www.customtailors.ca.
04. Making The Shoulder Pad

A person's shoulders are rarely level. To compensate for this imbalance the tailor will use the shoulder pad to lower a "high shoulder" so to appear even when wearing a suit. Only a hand tailored suit can accommodate a low shoulder. For more information on handmade, bespoke suits, go to www.customtailors.ca.
05. Giving The Lining Fullness

Fullness is a technique which gives the fabric room to move within the garment. A jacket without the proper fullness will pull on the material making the jacket both uncomfortable and unsightly. For more information about fine tailored suits visit www.customtailors.ca.
06. Rolling The Lapel

How the lapel is rolled and shaped is characteristic of the bespoke process. Most lapels are steam-pressed and lay flat against the suit - a sign of a poorly made suit. A lapel should roll off the garment to give the suit texture. For more information on how to spot a well made suit, visit www.customtailors.ca.
07. Matching The Lines
zhlédnutí 17KPřed 12 lety
Most fabric incorporates a pattern in its design. When making a suit, this pattern must look uniform across the entire garment. Only a hand-made suit will have matching lines throughout the entire piece - from pocket, to sleeve, to lapel. For more information on handmade, bespoke suits visit www.customtailors.ca.
08. The First Fitting

There are on average 3-4 fittings for a bespoke suit. The first fitting is where the majority of the alterations take place. Here both tailor and client discuss the desired look and feel of the suit. For more info about bespoke suits in Toronto visit www.customtailors.ca.
09. Re-Cutting The Garment

After the first fitting, the suit is re-cut according to the tailor's measurements. These alterations carry out the wants and needs of the client and insure a perfectly fitted suit. For more information visit www.customtailors.ca.
