OUR PROCESS
1 | CONSULTATION, MEASURE AND FIT
Having a suit you love starts with a perfect fit. In order to create this we need to measure and size you during a one hour consultation, During your fitting, you can discuss your preferences with the designer himself to put your own personal stamp on the garment,
2 | CHOOSE STYLE, CLOTH AND DETAILS
With our impressive collection of the world’s finest fabrics, linings, buttons and canvas, you can easily imagine a uniquely personal garment. You will be guided through every step to ensure your suit is stylish, practical and appropriate. To achieve this, you will be asked a range of questions to ensure you arrive at the best possible suit. You will be shown appropriate fabrics based on your requirements from our consultation. These fabrics have been sourced from the best mills in the world, so you can’t make a wrong choice.
This consultation takes place in our private suite in Brisbane City. We have a comfortable and sophisticated space where you can relax, enjoy a drink and discuss your ideal suit; from this appointment to your second fitting and collection, you should allow four to six weeks, but we aim for less.
Guided through a range of 6,000 fabrics in stock from mills including Vitale Barberis Canonico, Loro Piana, Holland and Sherry and many more.
Your measurements are taken in two ways: a pre-made fit block and specific measurements for more precise details using a tape measure. We arrive at the ideal proportion, drape and balance with both methods.
Discuss design particulars such as lapels, pockets, buttons etc and determine the appropriate design elements for the desired results.

With your style choices combined with your fit measurements, our tailors will begin to work on your pattern and will start work immediately, making your new suit. When the suit arrives between four and six weeks, you will be contacted to arrange a second fitting where our tailors do any minor adjustments efficiently within 72 hours. There is no charge to deliver you a flawless result. After the final fitting, we will take note of any final adjustments that have been made and add this to your pattern.
