What is bespoke?
Bespoke is an English term dating back to the 17th century, when tailors held the full lengths of cloth in their stores. A customer would choose a length of material that was said to “be spoken for”. Hence an outfitter who crafted clothes to your specific requirements was called “bespoke”.
Bespoke clothing goes a step further than made-to-measure clothing, which uses a basic, pre-existing template pattern that is then roughly adjusted to your individual measurements.
Unique piece of clothing
A custom suit enhances your individuality: it is not only perfectly tailored to your measurements, but also according to your taste and to the occasion which you will most likely wear it, whether for work or pleasure.
Be it a tailored 3-piece suit, a casual jacket, a custom dress shirt, or a pair of pants, Sartoforbice offers a wide choice of colours, cloths, linings, buttons to choose from.
Top quality cloths
Good quality materials are most essential to custom clothing. Sartoforbice sources the best cloths from around the world. A bespoke suit by us is a work of guaranteed quality: it will last and conform to your body for a long time.
The BESPOKE method is a 3-step process:
1st fitting: Skeleton Fit
Detailed body measurements are taken, an individualized pattern is hand-drafted and cut from scratch- not the standard, adjusted template pattern, as used by many other made-to-measure firms. Before the cloth is cut, a trial suit known as a “skeleton fit” is prepared. This is a basted garment cut to specifications, that is the basis for a fitting to determine changes.
2nd fitting: Forward Base Fit
After the first fitting is complete, this pattern is adjusted, the cloth for the garment is cut and trimmed along with the hair canvas and linings. A single tailor is then given the parts of the garment to sew together, from the earliest fitting stages, to the final, complete suit. This stage is known as the forward base fit.
These initial stages of construction are absolutely essential to make a well-fitted garment!
Final Finished Garment
Each bespoke suit is hand-made, even down to the button holes. After the first two fittings, the final garment is ready for delivery. Final alterations, if any, are made in house.
