EXPRESS TAILORING
Need a suit sooner than usual? Our express tailoring service can have your made-to-measure suit ready in as little as three weeks, including alterations following your first fitting.
Express tailoring is available on request and subject to availability. A surcharge applies, with the exact cost confirmed when you enquire.
THREE WEEKS, START TO FINISH
Consultation & Fitting
Choose your cloth, styling details and measurements with your tailor.
Your Suit Is Made
Dedicated books of Italian cloths are held in the workshop, ready for our tailors to begin work without waiting for fabric to arrive.
Fitting & Alterations
Your suit comes in for its first fitting, with time included within the three-week service for any necessary alterations.
THE EXPRESS DIFFERENCE
Our standard made-to-measure service takes around eight weeks. If you need your suit sooner, our express service can reduce that wait to as little as three weeks.
The difference is largely in how we manage the process. We keep dedicated books of Italian cloths in our workshop, ready for our tailors to work with. That means your chosen cloth can be cut and production can begin without waiting for it to be ordered in.
You’ll still have the usual made-to-measure experience, including your choice of styling details and a fitting once your suit arrives. The three-week timeframe also allows for alterations following that first fitting.
WHAT CAN BE MADE EXPRESS?
Our express service is available for made-to-measure suits and shirts.
Suit
You can still choose from the usual styling details to create the look you want. Some more involved or particularly detailed styling choices may require an additional week, so we’ll confirm the timescale when you place your order.
Fabric
Express orders require the selection of fabrics from our dedicated books of Italian cloths, which are kept in the workshop and ready for our tailors to begin working on. If you have another fabric in mind, ask a member of our team when booking and we can confirm whether it can be accommodated within your required timeframe.
STYLING
Express doesn’t mean standard. You can still choose the usual styling details for your suit. More intricate or time-consuming styling requirements may add an extra week to the production timeframe, and we will advise you before the order is confirmed.
FITTINGS & ALTERATIONS
The three-week express timeframe includes the alterations required after your first fitting.
Once your suit arrives in the workshop, we’ll arrange your fitting and assess the garment on you before any final adjustments are made. To keep to the express schedule, it’s important that you’re available for fittings when your suit is ready.
If you’re travelling from outside London, or arranging your suit around a wedding, event or other fixed date, let us know when you book so we can plan the process around your schedule.
