GREEN AND BLUE CHECK BESPOKE JACKET - 2

Image
  Custom Tailors in chiang Mai After some deliberation and skin tone checks we settled on fabric from our Premium Fabric collection . The bunch is a riot of muted and rich colors in plains and checks, all woven from either 250gram superfine wool. or 260gram super 160’s. As our existing clients will know, the first appointment with us is the longest. We always aim to get the garment as close to perfect as we can first time and our measuring is somewhat in-depth. Well this was the perfect example of what we aim for, with the garment being spot on first time. Balance was perfect, shoulders nice and clean, and with a lovely nipped in waist. Made in our soft style this really ticked all the boxes. New Moda Custom Tailors Email us at: tailormoda13@gmail.com Website: https://newmodacustomtailors.com/  

GREEN AND BLUE CHECK BESPOKE JACKET - 1

Image
  Tailors in Chiang Mai We were recently commissioned by a client to make a bespoke jacket for his upcoming wedding. Weddings these days come in all shapes and sizes…..from the super traditional church weddings, to the more easy-going barn style. Each reflecting the style and characters of the lucky couple. This wedding erred towards the later and came with a brief. The client didn’t want to look traditional, it just wasn’t him. He wished to wear the item again and wanted something a little different, but still with style and class. He also wanted to feel comfortable and relaxed, whilst still retaining a sharp look. With this in mind we floated the idea of a jacket and trouser combo, which would open up his choice on the top half to the slightly more detailed jacketing fabrics , which tend to be woven slightly lighter and more open. On the bottom half we would then look for texture and strength to play a supporting role and the open weave of a high-twist wool would b...

Brand New Patch Pocket Shape

Image
Best Shirts in Chiang Mai   Although we always favor a timeless style its important to not stand still. Whilst we aim for a look and a style that transcends time we also consistently look for improvements. Its in our nature. With this in mind we felt it was time to give our patch pockets a bit of a reworking. The previous shape was very much an older English style with a pretty square pocket with rounded edges. This has been updated to a more rounded shape, curving in towards the mouth of the pocket. The rear of the pocket is also raised giving a slight tilt towards the front. Overall is a more modern shape and with its roots in the Neapolitan style. Whilst this may only be a slight tweak it does make a huge improvement to the overall feel of the jacket . Pair this pocket with a softer Neapolitan style shoulder and shaped foreparts and you are well on your way to a timeless yet current look.

The Bespoke Suit Process Of A Hand Made Suit -B

Image
  Best Suits in Chiang Mai 2nd meeting: First fitting at the canvas stage The first bespoke suit fitting at the canvas stage is around 3-4 weeks after our first meeting, the suit will be half finished by our Master Tailor and ready to try on. We use this opportunity to mould the suit to your body, as well as looking at the way the suit fits. At this point we evaluate the suit fitting and make any necessary adjustments accordingly. It is easier to make these decisions when the suit is at this stage. This process will take 30 minutes. 3rd meeting: Final fitting This final bespoke suit fitting will be around 3 weeks after our second meeting. Your suit will be all ready to try on, at this point we ensure your satisfaction with the final garment.

The Bespoke Suit Process Of A Hand Made Suit -A

Best Tailors in Chiang Mai 1st meeting: Suit style This is the opening stage, we sit down and discuss cloths, suit styles and designs, and the end product you would like. If you are going to be wearing the suit to work for example we would recommend a more durable heavier weight wool compared to if you wanted a wedding suit where you could go for a light weight wool suiting with a more luxury feel and look for that special occasion. During the final part of the meeting we take your suit measurements and examine your body configuration. By this point we will have most of the ideas developed for you. This first meeting takes around 1 hour. New Moda Custom Tailors Email us at: tailormoda13@gmail.com Website: https://newmodacustomtailors.com/  

Rules to wearing a custom made suit-5

Image
  Best Suits in Chiang Mai 11. Your Tie Knot Should Be A Reasonable Size Uh oh! Another one about ties !! The Windsor knot is the ideal and should help you to result with a perfect sized knot, practice is what is required to ensure it doesn’t leave your tie too short. If you struggle with knots then try the Pratt, it’s a little easier to master! 12. Your Tie Should Be Darker Than Your Shirt One could say that this is more of an advisory than a rule, but generally speaking, a tie that is darker than the colour of your suit will always look sharper. However it is a question of taste or maybe a colour theme that is being followed so you can be forgiven if this one isn’t adhered to! 13. Cut The Thread On The Vents And Pockets When You Buy It Any good tailor will have already taken care of this for you however for the balance of the suit always make sure that the pocket threads are cut and open. We are not suggesting that you fill them and then spoil the balance o...

  Tailors in Chiangmai 8. Your Socks Should Always Cover Your Legs Hairy legs can be a great look for some occasions, but it is not something that should be on display when you sit down in you suit . Always make sure your socks are long enough to cover your legs when you are seated. Whether you opt for colour matched socks or you like to go wild with your Star Wars collection, just make sure that they are long enough! 9. Your Tie Should End At Or Just Before Your Belt Here is where you need to perfect you knot tying skills, and can be a case of trial and error. There should be no buttons visible below your tie and the tie should not pass the level of your belt! Good luck practising this one!! 10. Waistcoats Should Also Finish At Your Belt A 3 piece suit can be what sets you aside in a room full of suits , so lets make sure that waistcoat is just right! It should finish at belt level to prevent you looking like you are wearing a big brother hand me down! This ...

  Custom Suits in Chiang Mai 5. Your Trousers Should Fit No one likes half a mast trouser and if, when you are stood, your socks are showing then the trousers are too short. If they are bunched on top of your shoe they are too long! They should sit on top of the shoe with perfect drape and only when you sit should you show off any funky socks!! 6. Your Belt Should Match Your Shoes When it comes to belts, shoes and a leather watch strap, they should all be matching in colour, if you are to perfect the look. Black shoes and a brown belt for example is a huge no no!! It really is these fine details that set your style above the rest. 7. Your Shoes Should Compliment The Colour Of Your Suit There is some adventure to be had in this area, however there is a major rule to follow. Brown shoes with a black suit should never be seen and the same goes for a brown suit with black shoes!   New Moda Custom Tailors Email us at: tailormoda13@gmail.com Website: htt...

  Tailors in Chiang Mai 3. Your Shirt Cuffs Shouldn’t Go Over Your Hands If you can fit your hand through your cuff with the buttons or cuff links fastened then the cuff is too wide. The cuff should rest at the top of your hand, at the start of your cuff. It should also show 0.25 inch below your jacket sleeve for the true bespoke look ! 4. Your Jacket Should Fit This may sound very obvious but a lot of guys just don’t wear a jacket that truly fits! Starting at the shoulders, it should hug your physique but also flatter your shape. There should be no gap between your shirt and jacket collar. A well fitted jacket should make you look like your have been in the gym for 12 months, even if you haven’t! As said above, your sleeve length should be 0.25 inch shorter than your shirt, some may think that this seems too short, however it is the sign of a bespoke suit and stylish gentleman!! When opting for the skinny style always ensure that you can fasten your top button ...

Rules to wearing a custom made suit-1

  Best Tailors in Chiang Mai There is a little phrase that is known within tailoring; “A suit to a woman is like lingerie to a man!” So it is super important to make sure that you are hitting all of the cardinal points when striding out in your suit!! We have them listed right here so that you can check that you are the best that you can be! 1. Never Button The Bottom Button Of A Suit Jacket Just don’t do it! Ever! When you sit down undo it, as otherwise the jacket just won’t sit right and can ruin its shape. If you didn’t already know this rule then don’t worry, you are one of many, it is a common mistake for guys to make when wearing a suit . For the balance of the jacket, it is always tailored to be fastened at the mid point, so if you do fasten the bottom button it will throw everything all out of whack!! 2. Always Button The Top Button Of Your Shirt You just can’t get away with leaving that top button open and sliding your tie up to disguise the fact that...

custom made Suit structure - B

Image
  Tailor made suits in chiang mai A fixed canvas is glued to the inside of the suit and the negative result of this is the suit has less freedom and movement and affects the overall comfort of your jacket . Good quality cloth has the ability to move, mould and drape to your physique as you wear it, increasing the perfection of the fit over time. A fixed canvas does not allow this movement and also the glue in which it is fixed in with, over time, can break down and loosen, spoiling the structure and the overall lasting quality of the jacket . Here at new moda custom tailors all of our jackets are made with a hand sewn floating canvas. This method allows the jacket to adapt with the cloth as your wear it and offers immediate comfort and structure. As there is no glue involved it means it will not suffer any deterioration, resulting in a long lasting and quality product. Quality is what counts here at new moda custom tailors, we want your clothing to last for years an...

custom made Suit structure - A

  tailor in chiang mai Good quality cloth has the ability to move, mould and drape to your physique. The cloth that you choose can be likened to the icing on the cake or perhaps the paint on the outside, it’s the structure on the inside of your suit that plays an important role in how your jacket looks, feels and how it stands the test of time. Inside your jacket is a chest plate, made from horse hair, these can be created as a half or full canvas depending on the style and structure that we are aiming to create. Many custom made suit manufacturers and tailors will opt for the cost cutting option of a fixed canvas, this is not something that should be offered by a quality tailoring service.
