The quality of a suit can be difficult to tell even for regular suit dressers. A lot of factors have to be checked to ensure a perfect custom-made suit. Suit Master has laid out some factors to guarantee if your suit has reached its greatest quality whether your garment has been made by us or elsewhere. Suit Master ensures that all of these ten factors are met by all of our bespoke suits.
Symmetry and Alignment
Ensure that the seams and features are centered. The suit must be proportional to the left and right. Don’t forget to check the tops of the shoulder, pocket flaps, and other seams to guarantee that stripes or patterns are aligned.
Fitting
Your suit should make you feel comfortable. It shouldn’t be too loose or too tight. The suit sleeves must not be short or long. The sleeves’ length should also enable you to move your hands up and down without any trouble.
Armholes
A professional tailor employs skill during the cutting of the fabric. When cutting armholes, he judges the width with accuracy for easy movement of arms.
Collar
When fitting a suit be sure to check your suit’s collar and shoulder. The collar should hug the back of your neck without buckling or pulling. If the fabric cut is not right, your shoulders will be too bulky.
Proportion
The proper placement of the buttons, pocket flaps, and breast pocket will determine the whole proportion of the suit. The waistline button should be the central point for the placement of the pockets.
Lapels
Lapels should be hand-stitched underneath by tiny needles and should lie flat to your chest. It should hold and maintain its shape and should not bunch up or buckle.
Cuff Button Holes
Working cuff button holes were designed to enable suit dressers to roll up the sleeves of their jackets if they need to. Custom-made suits have 4 cuff button holes.
Buttons
Bespoke suits use real animal horn buttons and not the plastic ones.
Backing
A proper backing that lines the chest and lapels should be made from the combination of linen or wool to ensure that it will last.
Lining
Rayon made from cotton, corn, or bamboo should be used when making the inner lining of the suit.
