The Benefits of Bespoke Clothing

In a world where fast fashion is the norm, it’s refreshing to know that there is an alternative option for those who want something a little bit more special. Bespoke clothing is an investment that can last a lifetime—and it’s not just for special occasions. Here are three reasons why you should consider made-to-measure clothing for your everyday wardrobe.

1. It’s eco-friendly.

Did you know that bespoke clothing is actually eco-friendly? When you have a piece of clothing made specifically for you, there is no waste involved in the production process. Fast fashion, on the other hand, relies on mass production techniques that generate a lot of textile waste. So, if you’re looking to be more environmentally conscious with your fashion choices, bespoke clothing is definitely the way to go.

2. It’s an investment.

Yes, made-to-measure clothing might seem like a lot of money upfront. But when you compare it to the cost of buying several cheap items of clothing from fast fashion retailers every year (which inevitably falls apart), it’s actually not that much more expensive in the long run. Plus, bespoke clothing is an investment that can last a lifetime if it’s well cared for—which brings us to our next point…

3. It’s built to last.

When you have a piece of clothing made specifically for you, it’s designed to fit you perfectly and flatter your figure. This means that you’re much less likely to get tired of wearing it and feel the need to buy something new all the time. Bespoke clothing is also usually made from high-quality materials that are built to last, so you’ll be able to enjoy your investment for years (if not decades) to come. 

4. Customization

This is going to be a uniquely designed item that your designer (hopefully Couture Zen!) will take the time to create based on your personal tastes, fabric sensitivities, favorite patterns/colors, and body type. A really great custom fashion designer will typically create a few sketches for a client and then offer suggestions for how things will drape on the body based on the fabric type. (Tip: Be sure you enlist a great designer who also has a vast knowledge of fit/fabric/trends/proportion. Going to a tailor will be good if you are adept at designing yourself or have your own pattern already and just need someone to implement it for you.) 

If you’re looking for an alternative to fast fashion, bespoke clothing might be just what you need. It’s eco-friendly, an investment that can last a lifetime, and built to flatter your figure—what’s not to love? So why not book an appointment for bespoke design today and see what can be done for you?
