Many men confuse bespoke custom suits with made-to-measure, but the differences are significant.
1. Pattern Creation
- Bespoke Custom Suits: A brand-new paper pattern is created for you, based on your unique body.
- Made-to-Measure: Adjustments are made to pre-existing templates.
2. Fittings
- Bespoke: Multiple fittings (often 2–4) to refine the cut and shape.
- Made-to-Measure: Usually only one fitting.
3. Design Options
- Bespoke Custom Suits: Unlimited—lapel width, button stance, lining, pockets, and stitching are all your choice.
- Made-to-Measure: Limited by factory production capabilities.
✅ Conclusion: If you want a suit that truly reflects your personality and fits perfectly, only bespoke custom suits deliver that level of craftsmanship.
