The perfect Fit
At the Raymond Made to Measure store, the consultant understands the core needs of a customer in order to create a personalized style for his shirt, trouser or jacket. The consultant carefully observes and assists the customer on every aspect of styling, such as choosing the right kind of lapel, the appropriate cuffs and so on. Once the decision on style has been established, the customer is given an assortment of fabric swatches and an array of style to choose from. A master tailor then takes precise measurements and gives the closest try-ons. Once the measurements are recorded, the pinning is done according to the body to create the perfect silhouette of the garment.
To achieve absolute perfection, photographs of the customer are recorded from different angles in order to capture the details of his fit, posture and walk.
The team then records the customer’s measurements into a database that provides him the convenience of placing future orders from any Raymond Made to Measure store. The customer’s details are sent to an exclusive garment crafting facility where individual fabric pieces are precisely cut by laser. The fabric then undergoes 150 machine operations over a period of seven days to create a unique signature garment. From fusing collars and lapels at regulated temperatures to careful blending of canvas, each process ensures the highest standards of quality for the customer’s personalized garment.
