Our Bespoke Shirt Guide – Savile Row Tailoring Advice
Fabrics
When choosing fabric for your bespoke shirt, the options are vast, catering to different budgets and preferences. Our expert tailoring consultants will guide you through a selection that aligns with your needs.
For those seeking luxury, Sea Island cotton and Egyptian cotton are excellent choices. These premium fabrics are exceptionally soft, breathable, and durable. Their longer fibers are ranging from 2.85 cm to 5.3 cm this makes them superior to standard High Street shirt cotton. While they come at a higher price point, their unparalleled comfort and longevity make them a worthy investment.
Our tailoring experts will ensure you find the perfect cloth to complement your style and comfort preferences.
Here's What We Have Covered In This Article
Fittings
A bespoke shirt is crafted to fit your unique measurements and style. Unlike off-the-rack options, it requires a custom pattern tailored specifically for you.
During the fitting process, our skilled tailors consider every detail, including:
- Shoulder slope
- Posture
- Body balance and proportions
These elements influence the overall fit and comfort of the shirt. The fitting stage allows for any necessary adjustments, ensuring the final piece is perfectly tailored to your physique and preferences.
Get a Shirt or Suit That Fits Just Right
Off-the-rack clothes never fit quite right. Our tailors make sure your suit or shirt is made just for you, so you look and feel your best.
Shape, Cuffs, and Collar
Choosing the right shape, collar, and cuffs is essential in achieving a polished and comfortable fit. Our tailoring consultants assist with every detail, including:
- Shirt shape and fit
- Collar type (fused or sewn, height, and spread)
- Cuff shape and depth
As a general guideline:
- If you have a fuller or square face, a narrow point collar is ideal.
- If you have a slimmer face, a spread collar is more flattering.
To achieve the best results, we recommend bringing in a well-fitting shirt from your wardrobe as a reference for your bespoke design.

Why settle for a bad fit? We create tailored clothing that matches your style and shape perfectly. No guesswork, just great-fitting clothes.
Occasions
The right shirt style depends on the occasion. Here’s what we recommend:
- Office Wear: A classic tailored shirt in white, blue, or subtle stripes offers a professional and timeless look.
- Work-from-Home: Opt for a grandad collar or a casual check or navy print for a relaxed yet stylish appearance.
- Weddings & Formal Events: A pin collar, Oxford, or linen shirt in neutral tones provides a refined touch.
