I — Bespoke Menswear

Menswear tailoring, built around the person

Every garment is born from an original paper pattern, drafted for a single client and kept by the Maison.

Bespoke tailoring

A garment with one measure only

In the menswear tailoring of Maison Bourelly there are no sizes and no base models. Each garment is born from the measurements, posture and habits of the man who will wear it, and is built through an entirely handcrafted process.

Every insellatura is sewn by hand; the fittings, usually three, accompany the garment until it reaches its final balance.
