Explore the bespoke tailoring journey at Patrick Mackenzie

Fitting Consultation

To ensure you receive a suit you truly love, the process begins with a one-hour consultation focused on achieving the perfect fit. During this session, you'll work directly with the designer to discuss your preferences, allowing you to personalise every detail of your garment. This tailored consultation ensures your suit precisely reflects your style and fits flawlessly.

Choose Style and Details

During your personalised session, you will collaborate directly with the designer to discuss your style preferences and select from the world's finest fabrics, linings, buttons, and canvases. Our materials are sourced from prestigious mills such as Vitale Barberis Canonico, Loro Piana, Holland & Sherry, and many more, ensuring exceptional quality and craftsmanship.

The process is designed to deliver a suit that is stylish, practical, and impeccably tailored to your needs. Each choice made—from the fabric to the finer design details—ensures that your suit will stand the test of time in terms of style and durability.

You'll receive expert guidance in choosing key design elements such as lapels, pockets, etc. The designer will help you navigate the options, explaining each choice and ensuring that your suit aligns with your personal aesthetic and lifestyle.

Pick Up and Final Adjustments

Once the initial design and measurements are finalised, our skilled tailors begin crafting your suit right away. Typically, your suit will arrive within four to six weeks, at which point we'll arrange a second fitting at your convenience. If any necessary minor adjustments are needed, they will be made promptly within 72 hours at no additional charge.

Reorder

Once the final adjustments are made during your second fitting, these details are carefully recorded for future reference. This makes any subsequent orders—whether you're adding another suit, trousers, or sports coat to your collection—quick and seamless. This streamlined process ensures that creating additional pieces or preparing for special events becomes more convenient.

Patrick, who made my wedding suit, was absolutely exceptional! From the start, he guided me through selecting the perfect material and design with incredible care and patience. My wedding was originally set for last year, but after my accident just before the big day, everything had to be postponed. Throughout it all, Patrick showed remarkable understanding, kindly holding onto my suit until I was ready. With the wedding now set for next month, he went above and beyond to ensure the suit fit flawlessly, making all the necessary adjustments. He even helped me find the perfect tie to complement the suit. His warmth, dedication, and professionalism made the entire experience unforgettable. I can’t thank him enough

Matthew Terre-blanche

I cannot recommend Patrick highly enough. From the moment I walked in for a made-to-measure suit and shirt for my weddings, I knew I was in expert hands. Patrick's professionalism, experience, and genuine passion for his craft were evident right from the start. I had a unique set of requirements—one suit for multiple ceremonies across two countries, including a Western wedding, a Thai ceremony, and a traditional Chinese tea ceremony. The suit had to be versatile, durable, and stylish enough to handle it all.

Patrick took the time to understand my vision and guided me through every detail with such care. He helped me select the perfect fabric that not only suited my minimalist style but also matched the demands of each ceremony. His advice on customizations and styling, like matching shoes and boutonniere colours, was invaluable. The tips he provided on caring for the suit ensured it would look pristine throughout all the events.

The entire experience was flawless—from the initial consultation to the final fitting. Patrick's attention to detail and dedication to delivering the best possible result made me feel confident and at ease. If you're looking for someone who truly understands the art of tailoring, Patrick is your go-to!!

It was so easy to find a time for our initial consultation, and from there the experience only got better. No doubt Patrick is an exceptionally skilled tailor, but it is the time he takes to listen and understand, and make suggestions based on what he knows will work, that has made the process of having a tailored suit made so much more enjoyable.

The suit itself that Patrick had made looks amazing, the fit is exceptional, and I feel so comfortable and confident when I’m suited up - exactly what I was hoping for from a tailored suit!

As someone who has only ever bought suits off the rack before and had them altered, I don’t think I will ever again. Make sure you reach out to Patrick if you are considering a suit, you won’t be disappointed!
