Hover a point on the figure, or a row in the list — they light each other. This is the whole sheet we fill in at your first appointment, and the one we keep on file afterwards.
Points are indicative. In the shop we take each one twice, on both sides.
Seam point to seam point across the back. The single measurement you cannot fake later — everything hangs from it, and a shoulder that is 1 cm wrong is visible from across a room.
Fullest part, tape level under the arms, taken on a normal breath rather than a held one. We note the difference between relaxed and expanded.
At the natural waist, not the trouser line. For the jacket we allow the suppression you actually want, which is a conversation, not a number.
Fullest point. Governs whether the jacket skirt sits closed or flares, and where the trouser breaks over the hip.
Shoulder point to the wrist bone, arm slightly bent. Taken separately for each arm — almost nobody is symmetrical, and most people are surprised by that.
From the collar seam down. Set to cover the seat, then adjusted to your height and how you actually stand.
Crotch to the shoe, in the shoes you will wear it with. Bring them to the fitting — a 2 cm heel changes the break.
Not a length at all: how far you stand forward or back, and which shoulder drops. Recorded as a note and a correction to the pattern, and it is the difference between a suit that fits and one that merely measures correctly.
Send us these five and a photograph from the front and side, and we can start. Everything else waits for the first fitting.
