bespoke tailoring
Personalized suit creation
Bespoke tailoring is the craft of making garments entirely to an individual customer's measurements and specifications.
Unlike ready-to-wear or even made-to-measure clothing, bespoke involves creating a unique pattern from scratch, with multiple fittings to ensure precise fit.
The term originated on Savile Row in London, where fabric was said to "be spoken for" by a particular client.
He paid five thousand pounds for bespoke tailoring on his wedding suit.
