Great article Lizzie! Mike Latham has discovered something that most people think is unaffordable, custom clothing. The reality is that although in some cases it may cost a bit more per piece, you get exactly what you want as that you design it – not to mention it's a guaranteed perfect fit. How often to find this combination in off the rack clothing? For an example of what I'm talking about, look at a site like http://www.atailoredsuit.com/ and go to their build a garment tool. As you can see, with custom clothing you have complete control over every aspect of a garment's design. Are you a man with a thin face – then go for a spread collar – are you really tall and a bit lanky – consider a suit with a ticket pocket and lowered notches on your lapels to look more proportioned. There are a lot of great tailors and style houses that make this process easy. I highly advice finding one if you want to look your best. The strength of a designer clothing is in its brand; the strength of custom clothing is that the garment has been built for you and only you.
