tailored shirt

Made-to-measure garment

A tailored shirt is a dress shirt cut to fit the body's contours, as opposed to a looser "regular" or "classic" fit.

The term also describes shirts made to individual measurements rather than standard sizes: He ordered tailored shirts from his haberdasher.

Tailored implies a closer, more refined fit without being tight.
