At one time if you wanted a good suit you had no choice but to go to a custom tailor in NY, today there are dozens of designer labels, major brand name clothiers and discount warehouses that all promise you top quality suites at bargain prices. The only problem with this type of supplier is that no matter how they try to dress up the suits they are selling they are still mass produced in a factory somewhere other than at the place they are being sold and are not custom made to fit. Anyone can walk in of the street and pick out a ready to wear suit off the rack that might, if they are lucky come close to fitting.

The emphasis here is on close fit, because no matter how you look at it anything you buy off the rack is only ever going to be a close fit. When you buy clothes this way you are buying something that is made to fit a generic body size, it is more than likely to be slightly big in all measurements to allow for everyone in that size to wear it. When you order from a NYC custom tailor you clothes are made to fit only one person and that is you. The custom tailor in NYC is going to take enough measurements of your body that he can guarantee a custom fit suit that is made to your specific measurements. From these measurements he will create a pattern from which to work and keep the pattern in a file with your name on it. This way should he ever need to create more suits and shirts for you he does not need to have you come in again.

This is how many of the tailors are able to create suits and clothes for you by mail order that fit like a glove. When you buy clothes off the rack you are limited in the materials you can buy, with an NYC custom tailor you can choose from a huge selection of materials from pure Egyptian cotton to the best imported silks from the Orient. For suits the materials range from wool or worsted to tweed and everything in between, the materials are only limited by what you want and what the tailor has access to. Many custom tailors take great pride in being able to offer a huge selection of materials, while others tend to specialize in a small range of the best quality materials in one select area. Unlike the factory produced garments those made by an NYC custom tailor are likely to be completely hand sewn by a person who has spent decades learning their skill. Each seem will be carefully crafted to make sure that it does not pucker or come loose or have the threads pull out. If you are ready to have a top quality custom suit made just for you, you need to order your next suit from Alan David NYC. With over 80 years in the business of making suits their master tailors will create a perfect fitting suit just for you and take pride in the fact that it will fit right the first time.
