Not necessarily for every woman, but made-to-measure or bespoke can provide significant advantages where standard menswear proportions don’t give you the fit or silhouette you want.

Made-to-measure allows the garment to be created around your measurements, helping address differences through the bust, waist, hips, shoulders, sleeve length and trouser proportions.

Hire can work extremely well if the standard sizing suits your body. The best approach is to try the available hire options first and then consider whether made-to-measure would provide a better result.
