When it comes to clothing beyond off-the-rack, you’ll frequently come across two terms: bespoke and made-to-measure. These options may both allow for a great fit, yet they differ in their approach to tailoring. Understanding the difference between them can help you make an informed decision the next time you purchase clothing.
Bespoke Clothing
Bespoke clothing is the epitome of personalisation; a bespoke suit is truly one-of-a-kind, and is meticulously tailored to meet your individual preferences and measurements.
With bespoke tailoring, you have the opportunity to bring to life your idea of the perfect suit. From selecting the fabric to the different design details, you’re front-and-centre when it comes to the design of your suit, and your tailor will work closely with you to tailor a garment that reflects your personality and sense of style.
Your bespoke suit is tailored to your unique body measurements, allowing for a great fit that lets you feel comfortable and confident in your own clothing.
Bespoke tailors are well-versed in their craft, and you can normally expect high-quality workmanship and quality when you opt for a bespoke suit. This does mean that a bespoke suit can be expensive, but this is not necessarily the case, and it’s certain possible to get a competitively-priced bespoke suit, such as from us at Romeo & Juliet Tailor’s House.
Made-to-Measure Clothing
Made-to-measure clothing is a great balance between personalisation and convenience. While not bespoke, it provides a great fit tailored to your specific measurements. It’s based on pre-existing designs that are adjusted to your measurements, so it can allow for a garment that fits you well, and the cost may be somewhat less than that of a bespoke garment, but you lose out on the uniqueness and individuality that you can express with a truly bespoke garment.
