Our Made To Measure Tailoring Service Explained
People can get confused as to what the made to measure service is.
The way we work is that we have an existing pattern for all the garments we offer. From here we get you to try them on allowing you to get a feel for the garment itself, while allowing us as the tailors to have a look and decide what needs changing. We will give our advice and listen to what you want in order to achieve the best possible result.
We don’t just provide the standard made to measure service i.e. a simple length adjustment. These existing patterns we work from can be altered to suit each person, whether it be more or less at the shoulders, chest, waist, thighs, the list goes on. We will simply do whatever is required for the best possible fit.
You will only have one appointment at the beginning. There is no need for a fitting during the making process therefore the next point of contact is when the garments are ready.
This is how we differ from bespoke tailoring - with bespoke, a pattern has to be made up for you, which then requires you to have fittings during the making process. This in turn takes up more of your time and also means that you end up paying far beyond the cost of our made to measure tailoring service, for essentially a very similar garment.
After 30 years we have perfected the way we operate for the best possible result. We provide more than your standard made to measure service as we can offer changes in the fitting and details of all garments. This makes us fall somewhere in-between made to measure and bespoke tailoring, while still managing to offer our service at the same price as a made to measure.
How far will we travel?
Our Inverness Tailoring Service is primarily for Inverness, however we also visit surrounding areas, from the West to the East coast and a long way south (furthest has been Norfolk!)
If you are based outside Inverness there will be a mileage/travel charge, so to a certain extent distance is not an obstacle.
We do factor in the amount of garments to be ordered as well, to make sure its cost affective for us to travel any long distance.
