We can do custom machine initials embroidery for the shirt on cuffs or other places.

We can copy your favourite pair of trousers or a suit and the paper pattern belongs to you, as a client. You then can take that pattern and use it with us, or another tailor, or overseas (Italy, for example, where they have an incredible selection of quality materials) to sew as many pairs of trousers, shirts or suits as you would like.
The paper pattern can be reused an infinite amount of times and can be easily amended for different styles of perfect fitting garments (trousers can be more or less tapered or become shorts, for example).
