Casual Suits questions
What makes a suit casual?
Softer construction, patch pockets and textured cloths such as linen, cotton or tweed.
Can I wear the jacket and trousers separately?
Yes. We can choose a cloth that works both as a suit and as separates.
Do you make blazers on their own?
Yes. A tailored blazer is one of our most versatile pieces.
Will linen crease?
Linen does crease naturally; many people like the relaxed look. We can show you blends that crease less.
How many fittings will I need?
Usually two. The first (about 45 minutes) covers design, fabric and measurements. The second happens when the garment arrives, and any final adjustments are made in-house, usually within a week.
What if the fit is not right at the second fitting?
We do not hand your garment over until you are happy with the fit. Our in-house tailor makes the adjustments.
Do you keep my measurements?
Yes. Measurements, patterns and alteration notes are kept on file, which makes repeat orders faster and usually removes the need for multiple fittings.
Do you look after clients from Elsternwick?
Yes. Elsternwick clients visit our Richmond showroom regularly. Our showroom is on Bridge Road in Richmond. We welcome clients from anywhere in Melbourne and beyond, and once your measurements are on file, reorders are simple wherever you live.
