A staple of masculine dressing for over a century, tailored clothing, including the suit, is truly the backbone of sartorial dressing. Wearing the right suit projects confidence and authority with style. While words like classic, traditional and sartorial "seem" stuffy, the evolution of tailored clothing allows for a great deal of personal expression and is the makings of a modern stylish man.
Tailoring has new relevance, as it influences a great deal of a man's wardrobe. The suit is no longer only worn as a whole but pulled apart to mesh with sportier pieces. Items like the sport jacket and the vest are the new cool, worn by men of all ages. Perhaps in reaction to changed times and relaxed dress codes, we're eager to employ sartorial dressing as a means to define ourselves.
Finish, cloth, colour and cut are the answer to this pursuit. Holt Renfrew's Tailored to Measure service offers a chance to get ahead in the search for a "personalized" sartorial style, through its choice of fabrics, linings, details and silhouettes. Our Tailored to Measure Specialists work with each client to ensure their suit not only fits their form but also expresses their personal taste. Each Specialist is your guide to navigating a selection of styles, ultimately finding the suit that evokes the modern sartorial with a special personal relevance.
