Hello everyone!
I'm new to the world of bespoke & MTM suits and I have a few questions that I've been searching for answers to online with no luck. Please forgive any ignorance or stupid questions on my part!
I'm planning a trip to London in December and I'm curious about the idea of having a suit made for me by one of the famous Savile Row tailors. However, I will only be in London for 7 days, and I'm not sure if it would even be possible to have a suit made correctly in time.
I've read up a bit on the process, and it seems like there need to be at least two fittings in order for the suit to come out right, which are usually a couple of weeks apart (impossible in my case). Is it unheard of for a bespoke suit to be made with only one fitting? Would the danger of off measurements be too high? Would I be better off trying to go with a made-to-measure suit, and if I did, would that even be possible to do in a week? I have no problem with the suit being mailed to me after my return home, I just want to make sure that the process is able to be completed properly with the time I have there.
Thanks in advance for your wisdom!
