THE FINEST CUSTOM SUITS IN NYC
The Tailory New York is an appointment-only, women-owned, and operated bespoke clothing company that combines modern fashion design with the heritage art of custom-tailoring. We believe that custom suits are genderless, and pride ourselves catering in equal measure to men, women, and non-binary individuals.
Custom suits can convey a specific identity or image to the world around us. When designing a suit, we always ask ourselves: Who is the wearer, and where will they be wearing their suit? What are they trying to communicate to the world around them? And how can we create a suit tailored to their unique style, physique, and gender identity and/or presentation? Our ability to wield the power of fashion to meet the singular needs of each of our clients sets us apart from other custom clothiers.
TAILOR FOR INNOVATIVE CUSTOM SUITS IN NEW YORK
While custom suits are typically associated with uniformity, we like to get creative (when possible!) when designing suits. Whether that involves playing with color blocking or selecting a funky patterned lining to give a classic navy or charcoal suit a sense of playfulness, we are all about innovating and looking to the future. Our clients are bold, ambitious, and accomplished, our hope being that the one-of-a-kind clothing we create, tailored to their bodies, design preferences, and lifestyles, will serve as an instrument for success, self-affirmation, and self-empowerment. Our clients inspire us everyday, encouraging us to keep disrupting the norm of suiting.
We are known for our masculine-of-center women’s custom suits, giving our clients a silhouette that projects confidence and overall, enhances their self-image. Though people sometimes think of us exclusively as the makers of some of the most fashion-forward custom suits NYC has to offer, our offerings also include shirts, trousers, dresses, jumpsuits, and overcoats. That’s right: all custom, never boring! We have earned a reputation for our fine quality and a dedication to uncompromising style.
OUR CUSTOM CREATION PROCESS
Custom clothing can be a little daunting for first-timers, but we try our very best to make the process as seamless *wink* as possible. Everything starts with choosing a fabric from a selection of fabrics personally hand-picked by our consultants based on your custom wants and needs. From there, we’ll guide you in choosing every design detail, ranging from your jacket lining and buttons to your monograms, lapels, and pocket styles.
Next, we’ll take over 45+ measurements. A mix of body measurements (your actual dimensions), finished measurements (of the garment) for silhouette and fit, and posture evaluation, which determines how to cut the garment to best flatter the wearer. Your suit will arrive in 8 to 10 weeks depending on the provenance of your chosen fabric. We’ll then conduct a fitting and make any necessary alterations to ensure an optimal fit. Our in-house tailors can complete your alterations in as little as two days, at which point you’ll be ready to start rocking your brand new bespoke clothing.

CHOOSE YOUR FABRIC, LINING, & TRIM
Browse our extensive selection of premium quality fabrics, linings, and trims, handpicked by your designer based on what you’re looking for.
DESIGN YOUR GARMENT
Get down to the styling details with your designer and design a custom clothing or wardrobe that conveys who you are. Our process is 100% custom to you and your desired garment so nothing is off the table and everything is attainable. Whether it is a custom suit or a custom gown, your designer will work with your to design your garment from inside out and top to bottom.
GET MEASURED
We collect 35+ measurements that are a mix of your physical dimensions, the desired dimensions of your garment, as well as posture and fit analysis. For our virtual clients, we will capture their measurements via our 3D measuring app.
TRY ON
Approximately 8-10 weeks later, you will be back in our studios to try on your garment for the first time. Our in-house master tailor and your designer will go over the fit and determine what alterations are needed if there are any. Yes, sometimes we hit home-runs and no alterations are needed and you can leave with your garment. If alterations are needed, our tailors can turn it around in 2-3 weeks.
For our virtual clients, we will ship the garments to you after completion and we will access the fit with you via Zoom. A return label is always included for you to send the garments back to us for alterations.
We also offer rush services where we can turn around custom suits and clothings in 4 weeks and alterations in 2 days.
FINAL TRY ON
Usually, only one round of alterations is needed and the final try is on is just a fit check and clients can take their garments with them. If additional alterations are needed, we will of course take care of it.
Can I work with you if I am based outside of New York City?
Absolutely! We work with clients all over the world. If you are not local to NYC, you can work with us virtually or catch us on a pop-up in your city.

CUSTOM WOMEN SUITS
How annoying is it that custom suiting has primarily catered to men, but off-the-rack isn’t accessible to all body types? This isn’t okay!
The only size you should be looking for is YOUR size, and The Tailory New York creates perfect garments tailored to the client’s individual body.
Everyone who comes to us has a chance to personalize and embellish their designs to best express their personality and trust that it will fit and flatter their silhouette.
CUSTOM WEDDING SUITS AND OUTFITS
From understated to extravagant! From classic to modern!
Absolutely NOTHING is off limits and everything is attainable to make your wedding garments extraordinary. The Tailory New York team has yet to be faced with a style or design that can’t be achieved, and we will be right there along the way to make sure the client is dressed to perfection for their big day!
*We advise starting the custom process at least 4-6 months prior.
CUSTOM ESSENTIALS
The key to designing a winning suit is remembering the finest details!
Getting to know the wearer’s personality and what they are wanting to communicate to the world is the most certain way to deliver premium custom suits.
At The Tailory, we are committed to creating garments that best represent the client’s unique style and physique to encourage them to flaunt their truest and most authentic self!
CUSTOM FEMME SUITS
Our philosophy is that everyone deserves a wardrobe that is designed with the wearer’s personality and style in mind.
For custom femme suiting, we steer away from tradition as we play around with fit and design details to accentuate the natural curve of the client. A more elegant and softer silhouette forms as we strengthen the shoulders, cinch the waist, and taper the pant leg. Kicking expectations to the curb and achieving a look that is singularly YOU!
CUSTOM MASC SUITS
We believe the straight but fitted lines of traditional suiting should be accessible to all. The classic aesthetic is perfect for any and every formal or business occasion. A mid-rise pant and a sharp silhouette elevates the masc aesthetic associated with traditional suiting.
The Tailory New York is recognized for delivering custom tailoring that is singular and celebrated for its precision.
