What happens when you get your suit professionally altered

Most people buy a suit from a store rather than getting it made to measure. While this is a perfectly fine option, everybody is unique, so when you go and get one ready made it’s unlikely that the suit is going to fit you perfectly. Having your suit tailored can make such a difference to how it looks on you, and make the suit look much more expensive than if you were to wear one that doesn’t quite fit right. This is where alterations come in! Your seamstress will be able to work with you to make your suit fit you perfectly. 

We’ve put together this blog to let you know exactly what to expect from the process of getting your suit altered so next time you buy a suit you’ll feel more comfortable going to get it tailored.

It’s a common problem: you’ve bought a fantastic suit, but it isn’t completely comfortable to wear. Perhaps it hangs off your frame or is a little too tight. No matter how expensive the suit or luxurious the fabric, if it doesn’t fit properly you simply won’t feel your best!

Suit alterations are key for making every suit a great fit. Our Savile row trained tailors are here to ensure every gentleman has suits that fit perfectly and reflects his style.
