Made to Measure Mens Suits

[Anonymous]

DH needs a couple of new suits, I want him to get made to measure ones that are a little trendier than boxy Brooks Bros or Hickey Freeman. Any recommendations for custom suit places in DC? He had a good experience with one place in NY when we lived there.

Suit Supply

We have good luck with Custom Shop for shirts but haven't been for suits. My husband is retired military and the Henderson Hall Exchange does great suits.

The best tailor in DC is Field English Tailor. He was trained at Gieves and Hawkes on Saville Row. His father was English and Row trained.

Very traditional English tailoring - neither built up nor natural shoulders, strong chest, nipped waist. Expensive, but they are true bespoke suits - probably twice the price of a MTM BB suit by Martin Greenfield. Northern Georgetown.

For MTM, I would go with Samuelsohn. There should be a few places in the area that measure for them. One is in Bethesda. Forget the name of the shop.

- don't got to suit supply unless you want a glued construction. better off with altered off the rack from Hickey Freeman or BB. At least the suit will be fully canvassed and made from high quality fabrics.
