Casual Suits for Northcote clients
A tailored blazer and trousers you can wear separately are often the most-worn pieces in a wardrobe.
Choose linens and cottons for warm months, and tweeds or corduroy when it cools down.
In Northcote, casual tailoring and statement pieces are as popular as classic suits.
From the north, Richmond is an easy trip across town for a fitting.

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.
