| Do I need a tailor-made suit? I've always had trouble buying suits for myself (despite absolutely loving them) as I am always finding off-the-shelf suits ill-fitting.I'm a size 37 in the jacket (UK) but the pants I need are always set for size 38 suits. This means that the jacket fits but the pants don't or the pants fit but the jacket's too big! I've been told that there's nothing I can do except get custom suits but I'm only 22 and starting out in work and don't think I need (or can afford) a number of custom tailored suits. Is there anything I can do or will I just have to spend all my money on suits just so they'll fit? |

Hi John, I think you have two options. Either get an off the shelf suit in a size that fits you or might be a tad too large and have it altered by a local tailor. The other option, and my preference, is buying a tailored (or made to measure) suit online. They are a lot cheaper than going to a local tailor to make a suit for you and the quality is very high. Check for instance Suitopia (www.suitopia.com) where you can order a tailored suit online. Best regards, Philip |
