‘CUSTOM’ A TERM USED FOR BESPOKE TAILORING
Brown in Town’s Custom Collection was borne out of a personal sartorial journey to design items of clothing which would take one from weekday to weekend in the style to which I had become accustomed i.e. perfectly tailored clothes which fit like a glove and which flattered.
As often happens when we embark on a new direction, we find that others are too and an increasing number of our patrons began asking for similar garments, whether for the weekend or to bolster their weekday arsenal of suits, because suits were becoming less and less part of their weekly ensembles; Pieces that could take them from weekday to weekend and back again.
This inspired us to create a collection of informal attire that was every bit as accessible as the suit, but no less smart or versatile. So, the Custom Collection was born;
Custom, which is the term used for bespoke in the USA, because the pieces are available as a ready-to-wear but made to order using either the customers off-the-peg measurements, or those provided by the customer or, in the instance of Brown in Town patrons, the measurements we have on their pattern.
In addition, certain design details can be changed upon request.
HOW TO BUY
Been Measured
If you have an account with Brown in Town, simply contact us by your preferred method with details of your order, ensuring you provide feedback on the fit of the most recent garment which we have made for you- as we may need to revise your pattern before we start cutting.
Be Measured
If you do not have an account and would like to be measured for one of the pieces in our Custom Collection, simply give us a call to arrange an appointment with us in London or Bristol; or perhaps somewhere else.
Off-the-Peg
If you would like to order one of the fine pieces from our Custom Collection and are unable to have us take your measurements, please feel free to provide us your jacket measurements; chest, waist, shoulder width and jacket length and your trouser measurements; waist, seat and outside leg - measured by your own fair hand and not that of Mr Strauss, if you please. We'll do the rest.
