“The term bespoke, to a British tailor, is much the same as couture might be to a French couturier.   

“The term bespoke, to a British tailor, is much the same as couture might be to a French couturier. It essentially suggests the ability to create garments, cut, fitted and sewn by hand for an individual customer. The emphasis is primarily on fit, as this is what creates a unique silhouette. It is in expressing the customer’s individuality that really sets bespoke clothes making apart from ready to wear and made to measure. The choice of cloth, the purpose of the suit, the cus...tomer’s lifestyle, culture, body shape and many other questions are proposed when designing a suit. Answering them correctly leads to the creation of a garment that is stylish (form over function) and will never go out of fashion. More importantly it expresses the customer’s character, expectations and idiosyncrasies. This is how bespoke tailoring remains modern and relevant.” @davidetaub Head Cutter.
