The Art of the Bespoke Suit: Tailoring Excellence at Armitage

At Armitage Men's Outfitters, we believe that true style is defined by individuality and craftsmanship. Our bespoke suit tailoring service combines meticulous attention to detail with unparalleled personal service to create suits that are as unique as the men who wear them.

A Tradition of Craftsmanship

The path to creating the perfect bespoke suit begins with a deep appreciation for the art of tailoring. Our master tailors, with decades of experience, bring their exceptional skill and passion to every stitch. From the initial
consultation to the final fitting, every step is a collaborative process, ensuring that your suit not only fits perfectly but also reflects your personal style and preferences.

The Armitage Experience

Tailoring at Armitage is more than just a service; it is a personalised experience. It starts with an in-depth consultation where we discuss your needs and preferences. This conversation is essential in understanding the look and feel you desire from your suit. Our expert tailors take precise measurements and consider every detail, from fabric selection to button choice, to create a suit that is truly yours.

1. Style of Event

Your suit should reflect not just your personality but also the occasion. Whether you’re preparing for a beach wedding, a formal gala, or a smart casual event, our stylists will help you align your suit to the style of your event.

2. Style Options

Every Armitage suit is as unique as the person wearing it. We offer a range of design features to customise your look, including but not limited to:

• Single- or double-breasted styles
• One- or two-button closures
• Single or double vent options
• Wing collars for an elegant finish
• Slanted or straight pockets for a subtle yet impactful detail

Our tailors will walk you through all the available options, ensuring every choice reflects your individual taste and fits the event perfectly.

3. Fabric Selection

The foundation of every great suit is its fabric. For a beach wedding, you might opt for lightweight linen, while formal occasions may call for the timeless elegance of wool or the luxurious softness of cashmere. At Armitage, we offer an extensive range of premium fabrics, and our tailors will guide you through the selection process, ensuring that your choice complements your style and the occasion.

4. Measuring and Fit

At Armitage, precision is the cornerstone of every bespoke suit. Our expert tailors take meticulous measurements, ensuring every detail is perfectly tailored to complement your unique physique and personal style. From there, the artistry begins. Each cut, seam, and detail is executed with exceptional care, reflecting our commitment to unparalleled craftsmanship. What truly sets an Armitage bespoke suit apart is the painstaking attention to detail. From hand-stitched lapels to personalised linings, every element is thoughtfully crafted to match your exact specifications.

5. Final Fitting

Two weeks after your initial consultation, we invite you for a final fitting. This step ensures every detail of your suit meets our high standards and fits you perfectly. Our tailors will make any necessary adjustments to guarantee an exceptional result.

6. Press, Packed and Ready to Impress

Once your suit is ready, we meticulously press it, pack it, and place it in a premium Armitage suit bag, ensuring it is presented in perfect condition.

7. Finishing Touches and Beyond

To complete your look, our in-store stylists can assist you in selecting shirts, ties, pocket squares, lapel pins, tie slides, socks, and belts that enhance your suit’s elegance.

8. Luxury Services to Elevate Your Experience

Be sure to enquire about our additional personalised luxury services, including grooming, shoe cleaning, curated fragrances, and dry cleaning, to complement your bespoke Armitage suit. At Armitage, our commitment extends beyond the delivery of your suit, ensuring it remains a wardrobe staple for years to come.
