Ask the tailor - What to wear to meet your tailor?

If it is your first time meeting with a tailor you might be unsure of what to expect and I often get asked by clients what they should wear.

Firstly be assured a meting with Vanguard is a seamless and enjoyable experience. We expertly guide you through the process and advise you along the way of making your commissions. We usually meet clients in their homes, workplaces or at our comfortable studio in Delhi, so do not feel like you have to wear anything special.

The one thing we do ask, if you are being measured for a suit or trouser, is to wear a formal pant or chino. Jeans, shorts, skirts or loose fitting pants can make the measuring process a little more difficult but by no means impossible!

If you have a suit that you love the fit of bring it with you. We will look at it together and deduce if the style, silhouette & cut is the most flattering for you. Even if there are some things you don't like this is a great starting point. If you are buying something for a special occasion and you already have the shoes or shirt that will be worn with the suit, it's great to bring these so we can make sure we create something that will compliment.

Ultimately, we want you to be comfortable throughout our consultation. Though you may wish to wear something that shows your personal style and the tailored look you’re hoping to achieve with your next garment, there’s no rule to say this is necessary. Because, of course, we will be able to visualize and create your perfect suit whatever you wear for you consultation.
