Frequently Asked Questions

First things first we have a chat and see if Bailey’s can offer what you are looking for. If we can and you trust me to create that for you I will meet with you and help you choose fabric, trim etc. I will then see you for a fitting. At the end of the process we will have a unique pattern that perfectly fits your body.

MTM suits start at £495 for a two piece. Average price is £700. The range is £495 to £3900 and is determined by the cloth you choose.

Shirts start at £120. Average price is £149. The range is £120 to £320 and again is determined by the fabric chosen. I will offer a 15% discount if 5 shirts ordered at the same time.

Price is not as important as great value. I am selling top quality products at a relatively low price simply because I have few overheads. The most important thing for me is service and quality and making a customer very happy as per the reviews and testimonials. Bailey’s full price list is available on the Our Bespoke Process page.

For regular customer I charge only once they are perfectly happy. New customers pay a 25% deposit. Fully refundable if the customer is unhappy.

I advise 6 weeks for MTM suits and 5 weeks for MTM shirts. This can extend to 8 weeks in certain circumstances and also reduce to 4 if fabric is already in the work room.

For special occasions it makes sense to give yourself 12 weeks just to be sure.

2 or 3. One for a conversation, specifying your garment and taking measurements. One for fitting and possibly a 3rd for any amends to ensure a perfect fit. That said I will see you as often as it takes to ensure you and I are happy with your personal garment. We don’t specify a minimum number of fittings as we won’t allow a suit to go out unless we’re totally happy with it.

1000’s, sourced from the UK’s and the worlds top mills.

The majority of our cloths are either from British or Italian mills and some progressive Chinese mills. The British cloth industry is currently thriving and make some of the worlds best cloths! Italian mills are known for design and offer something a little different with history and world leading quality. Some progressive Chinese and Japanese mills offer fabric of exceptional quality and excellent design. The Japanese denim mills are worth a special mention for innovative high quality.

The UK, the EU and China. The UK still offers a traditional make with the cache of being British made and very. Portugal and Italy offer a beautiful make with attention to detail and a style that is hard to replicate in any other part of the world. China offers the worlds best engineered make and exemplary hand work. I wouldn’t be without any of the suppliers I use to produce world class products.

As all of the MTM are custom made for you they can’t be returned nor refunded. The standard 28 day refund policy does not apply. This does not affect your statutory rights and does not apply to faulty goods.  I will do everything within my power to ensure you are satisfied and I will happily remake or offer you a full refund if I make a mistake with your clothing.

Always the best question to ask and I should probably have put it top but the answer is long winded! There are some great places to buy clothing from. I have 35 years experience and have made 1000’s of garments. Both “off the peg” and Made to Measure. I know the business inside out. I am not here to simply make money I am here to supply a fabulous service and create fabulous clothing that fits better than most men will have ever experienced.

Having a suit made to measure is a special experience. It should be exciting and never uncomfortable. We take the time to get to know you and your personal style, your most flattering colour palette, your body shape and personality. This will help us to create the right look for your unique piece of clothing. A modern look whilst never forgetting tailoring tradition.
