Breaking the Mould: Why More Women Are Choosing MTM Tailoring
Tailored suits for women have been gaining significant track over the past few years, with tailored pieces becoming increasingly commonplace both on and off the runway. From statement blazers to looser cut trousers, suiting is rapidly becoming a mainstay of women’s wardrobes.
However, while there is a surge in popularity, the reasons why someone might invest in made-to-measure tailoring for women specifically are less well-known. Here, we give you the top three reasons why personalised women’s tailoring is a cut above the rest.
A more flattering garment
For too long, Australian women have had to make do with off the rack styles of tailoring that don’t account for the nuances in a woman’s body. All too often, this has meant a certain part of the garment’s sizing has had to be sacrificed for the sake of another i.e. a larger size to accommodate broader shoulders that has then resulted in too much room around the waist.
The major advantage of women’s custom suits is that this sacrifice no longer needs to take place with each piece being completely unique to the wearer and their specifications.
Greater comfort/movement
Closely linked with the custom nature of made-to-measure garments is increased comfort. In most instances, an off the rack garment will fit unevenly around the wearer’s body meaning some parts will fill tighter and others looser. This ultimately results in some discomfort and uneven wear.
In contrast, a made-to-measure piece is specifically constructed to wear evenly around the body making it a more comfortable piece of clothing (and also making it last longer).
