Questions & Answers
Frequently asked questions about measuring yourself
How do I measure my bust, waist and length for a custom garment?
Use a flexible tape. For the bust, wrap it around the fullest part with the tape level. For the waist, measure the narrowest part, usually just above the belly button. For length, measure from the shoulder or natural waist down to your desired hem. Keep the tape level and snug with room for one finger, and measure over close-fitting clothing rather than bulky layers.
How do I measure my waist, hips, thighs and rise?
Measure the waist at the narrowest point, the hips around the widest part of your hips and seat, and the thigh around the fullest part of the upper leg. For the rise, sit down and measure from the front of your natural waist, down between your legs to the seat. Keep the tape level and snug throughout.
Where can I get my measurements taken?
Any local tailor or seamstress can take your measurements in a few minutes, and many fabric or bridal shops offer measuring too. You can also measure yourself at home with a flexible tape using this guide, or have a friend help with the back and shoulder measurements. Because we send a free test garment before cutting your final cloth, the fit is confirmed on your body regardless of who takes the first measurements.
What do I need to measure myself?
Just a flexible measuring tape, a mirror, and ideally a friend to help with the shoulder and back measurements. Wear close-fitting clothing so the tape sits against your body, and stand naturally with your weight even on both feet.
How tight should the measuring tape be?
Snug but not tight. The tape should sit flat against your body with just enough room to slip one finger underneath. Pulling it too tight gives measurements that are too small, and leaving it loose makes the garment baggy.
What if my measurements are not perfect?
That is exactly why we send a free test garment. Give us your best measurements, and we build a test version in a stand-in cloth to your numbers and ship it to you. You try it on, we adjust from there, and nothing is cut in your final fabric until the fit is confirmed.

A Women’s Wool and Silk Suit for Office Days and Evening Light
Look for wool silk blend suits online and almost every result is cut for a man. Women are left with a choice between a plain wool suit that looks the same at eight in the morning and eight at night, or a shiny silk suit that only works after dark. A blend of wool and silk sits between the two: matte enough for the office, with a quiet sheen that wakes up under evening light.
This women’s wool and silk suit is cut from a Super 130s cloth of 70% worsted wool and 30% silk, with a three-button jacket set high on the chest and slim tapered trousers. It is made to your measurements on a canvas front, and you try a free cotton test suit at home before the cloth is cut.

Free Test Suit
A High Three-Button Jacket Has to Sit Exactly Right
A three-button jacket with a high stance shows every small error in fit: a top button a little too high presses on the chest, a little too low and the jacket loses its long, straight line. So before any of the wool and silk is cut, you try the whole suit in cotton.
A suit is two garments meeting one body, and few bodies follow a size chart. The test suits we see most often need work at the shoulders, across the back and at the seat: a fuller back hip with a flatter front, or a bust that does not follow the waist and hip measurements. Where the three-button style leaves no room for an extra dart, we ask you which matters more, the exact look in the photos or the exact fit, and correct the pattern your way.
1
Choose the cloth, lining and fit
Pick a shade of the wool and silk and a satin lining in the selector, then your fit and measurements. Ask for a skirt or a different trouser leg in the comment box on the measurement form.
2
We cut a cotton version of the whole suit
Jacket and trousers, made to your measurements, take 3 to 4 weeks and arrive 5 to 10 days after dispatch.
3
Wear it the way you will wear the real one
Sit in it, reach forward, walk in the shoes you plan to wear. On this suit the points to check are where the top button lands on the chest, how the high lapel lies over your collarbone, and the trouser length over your heel.
4
The wool and silk is cut to match
With your changes applied, the final suit takes 3 to 4 weeks to make and is with you 5 to 10 days after it ships. The cotton suit stays with you.
Day to Evening
How a Wool and Silk Suit Changes With the Light
Wool gives the cloth its body: it springs back from creases, holds a pressed trouser line and lets the suit breathe through a long day. Silk adds a fine, soft luster and a cooler, smoother hand. At 30% silk the effect is subtle; in daylight this reads as an elegant women’s tailored suit, and under warm evening light the cloth shows a soft glow that a pure wool suit never has.
At the office
Gray, navy or charcoal look like a classic women’s wool suit at a distance; only up close does the silk show.
At a wedding
Light gray, petrol blue or dark khaki with a silk blouse and tailored trousers is an elegant woman’s alternative to a dress, and many women’s silk suits for weddings are far shinier than this.
At dinner
Black or charcoal with the jacket closed works as evening wear without looking like a tuxedo.
The trade-off: a silk blend suit is a little less hard-wearing than pure worsted wool. Wear it in rotation rather than every day and it will last for many years; worn daily, the seat and elbows will show polish sooner.

The Wool and Silk, Up Close
These are close-up photos of the actual cloth. Look closely and you can see the fine silk sheen in the weave. Choose your color in the selector; here are four of the shades on offer.
Gray
The color in the photos: the most versatile, from office to wedding.

The Details
Why the Jacket Is Built This Way
Three buttons, high stance
Lengthens the torso and frames a blouse neatly. If you are petite or prefer a deeper opening, ask for a two-button stance.
Extreme high gorge notch lapels
The lapel notch sits close to the collarbone, which draws the eye up and makes the shoulders look straighter.
Ticket pocket
A small flap pocket above the right hip pocket, a traditional detail from English tailoring.
Top-stitched edges
Collar, lapels and the center back seam are top-stitched, which adds strength and a crisp outline to a soft cloth.
Center vent
As the back view shows, a full back suit with a single vent: easy to sit in and clean over the hips. That vent is the suit back design for women who spend the day moving.

Questions & Answers
Questions About the Women’s Wool and Silk Blend Suit
Q. Are wool and silk blend suits good?
A. Yes, if you want a suit with a soft sheen and a smoother drape than pure wool. The trade-offs are honest ones: silk is less springy than wool, so the suit needs a hanger and a rest day, and it shows water marks more easily. For a hard-working daily suit, pure worsted wool is tougher.
Q. What exactly is the fabric?
A. A Super 130s cloth of 70% worsted wool and 30% silk, so it carries more wool than a 50% wool women’s suit. Every fiber is natural; it is not a part-wool cloth padded out with polyester. The wool gives structure and crease recovery, which is why it works as a tailor made women’s business suit.
Q. Is it a silk suit or a wool suit?
A. Both, in one cloth. It behaves like a wool suit for structure and crease recovery, and the silk adds a soft sheen and a smoother feel against the skin.
Q. Does it shine?
A. Only a little. In daylight it reads as matte; under warm evening light the silk gives a soft glow, which is what makes it work from the office to dinner.
Q. Can I wear it to a wedding?
A. Yes. Lighter shades with a silk blouse make an elegant daytime wedding outfit, and darker shades suit evening ceremonies. The silk content gives it more occasion than a plain business suit.
Q. Why a high three-button jacket?
A. A high button stance and high-gorge lapels give a long, narrow line through the torso and frame a blouse neatly. It only works if the top button sits exactly right on your bust, which is why we check it on the test suit.
Q. Can I order it as a business suit?
A. Yes. Navy, charcoal and gray are the business choices, and the free test suit lets you check the fit before anything is cut.
Q. Is it warm?
A. It is an all-season weight that breathes well. In real heat a tropical wool suit is cooler; in winter, add a fine knit underneath.
Q. Can the style be changed?
A. Yes. Two buttons instead of three, a skirt instead of trousers, or a different trouser leg can be requested in the comment box of the measurement form, or by email with your order number.
Q. Can I see the wool and silk cloth first?
A. Yes. Our swatch service sends up to four samples of about 2 by 4 inches. They usually arrive within 4 to 6 business days. Quote product number 2600004 and the colors you want to compare; the courier fee is credited toward your first order.
Q. How long does the wool and silk suit take?
A. The cotton test suit takes 3 to 4 weeks to make and arrives 5 to 10 days after it ships; the final suit then takes 3 to 4 weeks plus the same delivery time. Order as early as you can if you have a date.
Q. How do I care for it?
A. Dry clean the jacket rarely and brush it after wearing. Rest it on a shaped hanger so the silk does not crease at the shoulders, and keep it away from rain.

Women’s Suit Fit Guide
Choosing the right fit is essential in creating your custom suit. It determines the silhouette and how your test garment will feel before final tailoring.
Slim Fit
Streamlined and tapered for a sleek silhouette. The jacket is closely fitted through the shoulders, chest, and waist, with narrower sleeves and higher armholes. Pants sit at the waist and follow a slim line through the hips and thighs, with a narrow leg opening.
Best for: A lean frame or those who prefer a sharply tailored, body-contouring look.
Standard Fit
Softly tailored for a balanced, classic silhouette. The jacket offers gentle shaping at the waist with a natural fit through the shoulders and chest. Sleeves are slightly tapered with standard armholes. Pants sit comfortably at the waist with a straight fit through the hips and thighs and a moderate leg opening.
Best for: An average build or anyone seeking a versatile, comfortable fit for business or everyday wear.
Relaxed Fit
Designed with extra ease for all-day comfort. The jacket has a looser cut through the shoulders, chest, and waist, with fuller sleeves and lower armholes. Pants offer a relaxed fit from waist to hem, with added room in the hips, thighs, and leg opening for easy movement.
Best for: Those who prioritize comfort or prefer a roomier silhouette, particularly around the waist and shoulders.
Women’s Suit Fit Guide
How a Woman’s Suit Should Fit
A suit is judged in seconds and worn for hours, so the fit has to be right in both senses: sharp enough to command a room, and comfortable enough to sit, reach, and move all day. The good news with a custom-made suit is that fit is not a gamble. There are no standard sizes to squeeze into, you tell us the fit you want and your measurements, and we cut the jacket and the trousers or skirt to your body. Before we cut your final cloth we send a free test garment, so the fit is confirmed on you first.
This guide explains the three fits we offer and the points to check so your suit sits the way you want it to.
Step One
Choose your fit
Slim Fit
Closely tailored through the waist and hips with a defined waist and a lean trouser or skirt line. The sharpest, most modern silhouette. Best if you like a body-skimming look and are comfortable with less ease.
Standard (Classic) Fit
Shaped and tailored, but with a little more ease through the body for comfort and movement. The most versatile choice and the one most people are happiest in, flattering without feeling restrictive.
Relaxed Fit
The most room through the body, with a softer, easier line and a straighter trouser. Ideal if you like to layer, prefer a contemporary oversized look, or simply want maximum comfort.
Step Two
The fit checkpoints
Shoulders
The seam sits right at the edge of your shoulder, where the arm meets the body, with no overhang and no pulling. This is the one line we cut precisely to you, because the shoulder is the hardest area to alter later.
Bust & chest
The jacket closes cleanly with no strain or gaping at the button and no pulling across the bust. A well-cut women’s jacket shapes around the bust rather than flattening or straining over it.
Waist
The jacket nips in at your natural waist for shape, closely on a slim fit, gently on a classic fit. You should be able to fasten it and still sit comfortably.
Length, sleeve & leg
The jacket ends around the top of the hip and the sleeve finishes at the wrist bone. Trousers break lightly at the shoe or skim to a clean ankle; a skirt sits at your chosen length. You choose all of these.
Every suit is made to your measurements with no standard sizing, in the fit you choose. A free test garment confirms the shoulders, bust, waist, and length on your body before your final cloth is cut, and the test garment is yours to keep.
Your Worries, Answered
The doubts most women have, and why you can relax
I have never bought a suit I could not try on first. How do I know it will fit?
Because you do try it on first. After you send your measurements, we make a free test garment in a stand-in cloth to those numbers and post it to you. You put it on at home, check the shoulders, bust, waist, and length, and send us your notes and a couple of photos. Only once you are happy do we cut your final cloth, so the finished suit is not a leap of faith, it is a fit you have already seen and approved on your own body.
I need this for a specific occasion and I am terrified it will not be right on the day.
Tell us the date when you order and we plan the whole timeline back from it, including the free test-garment stage, so there is time to confirm the fit and make any adjustments with room to spare. For a dated event, order as early as you can. Because you approve the fit on the test garment before the final suit is cut, you are not walking into your occasion hoping it fits, you already know it does.
I am nervous I will measure myself wrong.
You do not have to be perfect. Our guide walks you through each measurement, a friend or a local tailor can help with the tricky ones, and if you are unsure you can send your best numbers. The free test garment exists to catch any small error before it matters, we see the fit on your body and adjust, so an imperfect first measurement is completely normal and nothing to worry about.
I have always struggled to find suits that fit my body. Is this really for someone like me?
It is made for exactly you. The women who struggle most with off-the-rack, a fuller bust, a small waist, broad or narrow shoulders, a long or short torso, are the ones who benefit most, because we cut to your proportions instead of forcing you into a size. There is no shape that is wrong here; there are only your measurements.
My body is not a standard shape, one shoulder is higher, or I am fuller on top. Can you actually cut for that?
Yes. Custom-made is built for real bodies, not idealized ones. Note any asymmetry or particular concern in your order, or show us on the test garment, and we adjust the cut, a higher shoulder, a fuller bust, a shorter waist, and confirm it before the final cloth is touched. This is precisely what a bespoke process does that a size on a rack never can.
It is a lot to spend on something made just for me. What is my safety net?
Your safety net is that nothing final, and nothing costly, is cut until you have approved the fit on the free test garment. You are not paying for a gamble, you are paying for a suit whose fit you have already confirmed on your own body. And a well-made suit that actually fits gets worn for years, so the cost per wear is usually far lower than the compromise suits that sit unworn in the wardrobe.
What if the suit arrives and I am not happy with it?
The final suit is cut to the exact fit you signed off on the test garment, so surprises are rare by design. If anything still needs a tweak, the finished suit carries generous seam allowances so a local tailor can fine-tune it, and you can always contact us and we will help make it right. You are never left alone with a suit that does not work.
What if my weight changes before the event, or afterwards?
Take your measurements as close to the event as you can, and if your size shifts before we cut the final cloth we simply adjust to your new numbers. For afterwards, the finished suit is made with seam allowances so a local tailor can take it in or let it out within reason, and we keep your measurements on record for any future pieces.
