The terms "bespoke" and "made to measure" are not the same. Bespoke is taken from the 17th century when tailors held bolts of fabric in their shops and the fabric was "spoken for" by a particular client. When the tailor made clothing specifically to the client's wishes, it was "bespoke".
"Made to measure" is a term that is used to create clothing that is created from a basic pattern and is roughly adjusted to the client's measurements.
With J. Hilburn custom clothing, the client chooses the fabrics best suited for them. Your Style Advisor takes at least 10 measurements in order for the designers to create a marker or pattern for that client. Our tailors hand cut each piece of fabric. A single tailor is then given the task of sewing each part of the garment together. Each piece of your shirt is handmade - from the initial cutting of the fabric, down to the buttonholes. With J. Hilburn, your shirts are truly bespoke.
