SHOULDERS

Lightly padded & expertly cut to follow your natural contours- so no more Star Trek shoulders

WAIST

Tapered to enhance your sexy silhouette

SLEEVE

Stand in a natural, relaxed stance. A good tailored fit on the jacket sleeve ensures the sleeves hang
straight – no twisting – and look smooth.

JACKET & SLEEVE CUFF

Narrow enough to accentuate your big man hands, but not so narrow as to get stuck on your Swiss watch. Always show about ½ inch of shirt cuff.

SLEEVE LENGTH

Less is more. Cut correctly to not cover your hands & show just a bit of shirt cuf

JACKET LENGTH

We all know length matters. Get your jacket cut to the right length for your unique body shape and
height.

TROUSER LENGTH

You’ve got to stop somewhere. Length tailored perfectly to give you just the slightest break

TROUSER LEG

Tailored fit should offer you a consistent look and feel to the trouser leg, especially in the thigh
and calf area.

TROUSER CUFFS

Slim is in. No bell bottoms please! Match with a streamlined shoe to complete the look

TAILOR MADE BONUS TIPS

If you buy tailor made you can select the fabric, colour, lapel size & shape, number of buttons, pocket design & many other features to personalize your suit.

Top heavy? Tailor made means you can get different sized jackets & trousers to fit your upper & lower body perfectly.
