Getting A Custom Tailored Suit: A Complete Guide
Discover everything you need to know about your next custom tailored suit, whether you're a first-time buyer or looking to try something new. Explore our wide range of fabrics for bespoke suits that cater to all clientele.
Looking for a suit that fits better, feels better, and looks extraordinary? A custom suit from Crowned Legacy Suits is more than just clothing — it’s an investment in your personal brand, style, and confidence.
Whether you're preparing for a wedding, upgrading your office wardrobe, or stepping into the world of bespoke tailoring for the first time, here’s what you need to know before booking your appointment.
1. Know the Difference: Off-the-Rack vs. Custom
Let’s break down the basics:
Off-the-Rack Suits: Mass-produced with generic fits.
Made-to-Measure Suits: Customized from a base pattern to match your exact measurements.
Bespoke Suits: Fully handcrafted from a brand-new pattern, built from the ground up.
At Crowned Legacy Suits, we specialize in made-to-measure and bespoke men’s suits, designed to suit your body, style, and lifestyle with precision.
2. Fabric First: Pick Your Foundation
Choosing the right fabric is crucial to creating a suit that fits both your form and function. We carry luxury fabrics from Italy, England, and top global mills to match any season or setting.
Considerations:
Season: Lightweight cottons and linens for summer; heavier wool and tweed for winter.
Use Case: Workwear, formal events, business travel, or casual elegance.
Color & Pattern: From classic navy and charcoal to subtle pinstripes and bold checks.
Pro tip: A well-chosen fabric improves not just the look, but the longevity of your tailored suit.
3. Fit is King: What Makes a Tailored Suit Exceptional
The core value of tailored suits for men is fit — and this is where Crowned Legacy Suits shines. We take over 20+ precise measurements to sculpt a silhouette that complements your body type.
We’ll get it right — from:
Shoulder width and jacket length
Sleeve and trouser break
Chest, waist, and seat contour
Posture and personal quirks
Searching for tailored suits that fit perfectly? You’ve found the right place.
4. Customization: Make It Yours
With Crowned Legacy Suits, every detail is yours to choose — down to the thread color. This is your opportunity to design a one-of-a-kind look.
Customize your suit with:
Lapel styles (notch, peak, shawl)
Button configurations
Pocket design and placement
Full/half canvassing
Lining colors and patterns
Personal monograms and embroidery
Looking for bespoke suits with personality? Our custom detailing sets us apart.
5. Timing is Everything
Planning ahead is key when it comes to custom-tailored suits. Here’s what to expect:
Made-to-Measure: Typically 3–5 weeks
Bespoke Tailoring: 6–10 weeks, with multiple fittings
We recommend scheduling your consultation at least 6–8 weeks before any major event to ensure the perfect fit.

6. Think About Your Lifestyle
We design suits that match your life. During your consultation, we’ll discuss:
How often you plan to wear the suit
Your preferred fit style (classic, modern, slim)
Any accessories you regularly wear (e.g. watches or shoes)
The goal is to build a suit that works for your wardrobe, your movement, your rhythm.
