Bespoke suits

Jelliebeen

Hello,

So, my husband to be has a 32" chest, which is making finding a suit impossible, since very few big retailers seem to sell jackets under 36" (tried M&S, Boots, Debenhams...). We had a look at Moss in Oxford, but they didn't have much choice. We don't want the traditional 'tails'/morning suit, and nothing else stood out as looking that little bit special, just the kind of thing you might go to work in.

I think we're going to have to get a suit tailor made so that it actually fits him. Does anyone know of anywhere that does this at reasonable prices? I've seen something called A Suit That Fits when I searched online, does anyone have any experience of them?

Thanks (-:

Hi there,

I haven't heard of the shop that you mentioned, but OH had a suit made for our wedding from John Lewis. It was expensive, but something he can wear for work too. their service was quite good, but the cut of the suit is quite traditional. Not sure I'd recommend them, nd I think we could have done better for the money.

i think Burtons now to made to measure - could be worth a try?

It might be worth speaking to a seemstress (sp) about adapting one. Just an idea.

Thanks for your suggestions. I had a look on Burtons website and didn't see anything about made to measure, so will have another look.
