Embark on the ultimate personalized clothing journey. Bespoke tailoring is the pinnacle of sartorial excellence, where a suit is crafted entirely from scratch, beginning with your unique paper pattern. We take over 30 precise measurements and consider your posture and style preferences to create a garment that is truly one-of-a-kind and fits your body like a second skin. From selecting the finest fabrics to designing every last detail – lapel style, pocket placement, lining, buttons, and more – every element is chosen by you and brought to life by our master tailors. This process involves multiple fittings to ensure perfection, resulting in a suit of unparalleled comfort, fit, and distinction.
For those seeking a superior fit and personalised style without the extensive process of full bespoke, our made-to-measure service offers an excellent alternative. You begin by selecting from our curated collection of existing styles and premium fabrics from leading mills. We then take your measurements, which are used to modify a base pattern to your specific dimensions and preferences. This service allows for significant customization in terms of style, fabric, lining, and details, providing a garment that is tailored to your body, resulting in a much better fit than off-the-rack options. It's a perfect blend of personalization, quality, and efficiency.
Complementing our tailored services, Kingswood Tailoring offers a refined selection of high-quality ready-to-wear suits. These garments are carefully chosen for their fabric, construction, and contemporary style, providing an excellent foundation for many wardrobes. To ensure you achieve the best possible fit, we provide expert alteration services. Our skilled tailors can make precise adjustments to sleeves, trousers, waistlines, and jackets, transforming a standard size into a garment that looks and feels significantly more personalised. Whether purchasing from us or elsewhere, our alteration service ensures your existing wardrobe fits you impeccably.
When the occasion calls for black tie, Kingswood Tailoring provides both sales and hire options for exquisite tuxedos. Whether you require a classic dinner suit for a formal event, a sophisticated ensemble for a wedding, or attire for a black-tie gala, our collection offers refined choices. Our sales selection features impeccably styled tuxedos crafted from fine materials, available with alterations for the perfect fit. For convenience, we also offer a tuxedo hire service, providing high-quality, well-maintained options that ensure you look your best without the commitment of purchasing. We guide you in selecting the appropriate style and accessories for your event.
A perfectly tailored suit requires the right accompanying elements to complete the look. Kingswood Tailoring offers a curated selection of fine dress shirts, available in various fits and fabrics, to complement your suiting. We also provide essential accessories that add personality and polish, including silk ties, elegant pocket squares, cufflinks, and more. Our team can assist you in selecting pieces that harmonise with your suit and occasion, ensuring a cohesive and sophisticated appearance. From the foundation of your shirt to the finishing touch of a pocket square, we have everything you need.
Your wedding day is one of life's most significant occasions, and your attire should reflect its importance. Kingswood Tailoring specialises in creating unforgettable wedding suit experiences. We offer tailored packages for the groom and his party, whether you envision classic bespoke suits, made-to-measure perfection, or coordinating hire options. We provide personal styling consultations to align with your wedding theme and individual preferences, ensuring a harmonious and distinguished look for everyone involved. Let us help you find the perfect ensemble that makes you feel confident and celebrated on your special day.
Your journey begins with a personal consultation in our comfortable Melbourne studio. You'll meet with one of our experienced stylists or master tailors who will take the time to understand your individual style, needs, and the specific occasion for which you require the garment. We'll guide you through our extensive collection of exquisite fabrics, discussing weight, texture, and pattern, and explore design details from lapel styles and pocket configurations to button choices and linings. This collaborative session ensures the final garment perfectly reflects your vision.
Following the styling consultation, our skilled tailors will take over 30 precise measurements of your body. Unlike standard measurements, we account for posture, shoulder slope, arm hang, and other unique physical characteristics. For bespoke, these measurements are used to draft a unique paper pattern from scratch – a blueprint created solely for you. For made-to-measure, an existing pattern is meticulously adjusted based on these detailed measurements. This step is fundamental to achieving the unparalleled fit that Kingswood Tailoring is renowned for, ensuring comfort and a flattering silhouette.
With your unique pattern and fabric selected, our skilled artisans begin the meticulous process of cutting and assembling your garment. This stage involves both traditional hand-stitching and precision machine work, depending on the garment type and design details. Every seam, every pocket, every structural element is carefully constructed with an unwavering attention to detail. The process is painstaking and requires immense skill and experience, ensuring the integrity and longevity of the garment. For bespoke, the garment is initially assembled in a temporary 'baste' stage.
Fittings are a crucial part of the tailoring process, especially for bespoke suits. The first fitting (often the 'baste' fitting) allows us to try the partially constructed garment on you, assess the fit and drape, and make necessary adjustments to the pattern and garment. Subsequent fittings (usually one or two more) refine the fit further, ensuring every contour is perfect and addressing any subtle nuances. Made-to-measure may require fewer fittings, but the goal is always to achieve the most precise and comfortable fit possible before the final finishing touches are applied.
After all fittings are complete and the final touches have been applied, your beautifully finished garment is ready. This is the moment you receive your perfectly fitted, uniquely crafted suit, designed and built specifically for you. We conduct a final check to ensure everything meets our exacting standards and your complete satisfaction. You leave Kingswood Tailoring not just with a new piece of clothing, but with a garment that embodies true luxury, impeccable fit, and enduring style, ready to make a lasting impression.
At Kingswood Tailoring, we firmly believe that the foundation of an exceptional garment lies inextricably in the quality of its materials and the unparalleled skill of its creation. This commitment to excellence begins with the careful selection of fabrics. We traverse the globe, forging relationships with renowned mills in Italy, England, and beyond, to source only the finest wools, cashmeres, silks, and linens. These premium textiles are chosen not only for their luxurious feel and aesthetic beauty but also for their durability, drape, and ability to perform over time. The quality of the cloth is the starting point from which true tailoring artistry can flourish.
Our tailors are more than just technicians; they are artisans who approach each garment with reverence and a deep understanding of form and structure. They are dedicated to the subtle, often unseen details that collectively elevate a suit from good to truly exceptional. This includes meticulous hand-stitched buttonholes that showcase a level of refinement machine stitching cannot replicate, perfectly matched patterns across seams and pockets for visual harmony, and linings that are as beautifully crafted and comfortable as the exterior fabric itself. The precision in cutting, the balance of the canvas, and the flawless assembly all contribute to a garment that feels as incredible to wear as it looks.
This unwavering dedication to the highest standards of quality is evident in every seam, every finish, and ultimately, in the way the garment feels, drapes, and looks on you. A Kingswood tailored piece is an investment designed to stand the test of time, both in durability and timeless style. It's a testament to the enduring value of true craftsmanship.

The key difference lies in the pattern creation and degree of customisation. Bespoke tailoring involves creating a completely unique paper pattern from scratch based on your specific body measurements and postural characteristics. This allows for the highest level of personalised fit and unlimited design options. The garment is constructed in stages with multiple fittings to refine the fit precisely. Made-to-measure tailoring, on the other hand, starts with a pre-existing block pattern that is then adjusted based on your measurements. While it offers significant customisation options for style, fabric, and fit compared to off-the-rack, it doesn't involve creating a pattern entirely from the ground up. Both services offer a superior fit to ready-to-wear, but bespoke is the ultimate in personalised craftsmanship.
The bespoke process is an intricate one that cannot be rushed. It typically takes between 6 to 10 weeks from the initial consultation to the final fitting and collection of your finished garment. This timeline allows sufficient time for precise measurement taking, the drafting of your unique pattern, the hand-cutting of the fabric, the crucial 'baste' fitting, subsequent adjustments and fittings, and the meticulous final hand-finishing. The exact duration can vary depending on the complexity of the design, the fabric chosen, and the number of fittings required to achieve the perfect fit. We recommend planning well in advance, especially for special events like weddings.
Yes, absolutely. Our expert tailors possess the skills and experience to perform high-quality alterations on garments, even if they were not originally purchased from Kingswood Tailoring. We can assist with a wide range of adjustments, including sleeve length adjustments, trouser waist and length modifications, jacket waist suppression, shoulder adjustments, and more. Bringing your existing suits and formalwear to us for alterations is an excellent way to refresh your wardrobe and ensure everything fits you perfectly. We assess each garment individually to provide the best solution.
The pricing for bespoke suits is highly individualised and depends significantly on several factors, primarily the choice of fabric (sourced from various prestigious mills, with different fibres, weights, and weaves having varying costs) and the complexity of the design and requested details. As a result, there isn't a fixed price list. We discuss pricing transparently during your initial consultation after we've understood your requirements and preferences. This ensures you have a clear understanding of the investment required to create your unique garment. Please book a consultation to receive a personalised estimate.
