Made to Measure
The Method
Measured once. Remembered for good.
Made to measure means we begin with a proven house block and adapt it to you — shoulder slope, posture, sleeve, waist. Then you choose the fabric and every detail on top of it.
Your measurements stay on file at the boutique. The second garment is easier than the first.
In the boutique, unhurried. Figure, posture and the way you actually stand.
In boutiqueFabric from the book, then lapel, lining, buttons, pockets, collar and cuff.
Your callCut and made up to your specification, with a half-canvas or full-canvas front.
Made to orderTried on, marked and corrected. Adjustments belong to the service.
