Inspiration images help communicate the atmosphere a client wants. They are not a ready-made recipe. The same colour, fabric or cut can look different on each person because height, shoulder line, skin tone, purpose and setting affect the result.<\/p>\n

Start with the situation, not the image<\/h2>\n

Before choosing a colour or detail, ask where the garment will be used. Work, weddings, formal events, travel and everyday life require different things. Purpose narrows the options and makes the choice easier.<\/p>\n

Accessories and bags can help build the colour world around a suit.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Colours should connect to your wardrobe<\/h2>\n

A good made-to-measure garment should not remain a one-off curiosity, but work with other clothes. Navy, grey, beige, brown and muted green tones are often easier to combine than very bright colours.<\/p>\n

A fabric sample tells more than a picture<\/h2>\n

In a photo, fabric can look flat, but in real life its surface, weight and sheen matter a lot. That is why fabric should be seen in light, felt by hand and considered in movement.<\/p>\n

  • Bring inspiration images, but also explain the purpose.<\/li>\n
  • Choose a colour that works with existing shoes and accessories.<\/li>\n
  • Look at fabric in natural light if possible.<\/li>\n
  • Keep the outfit clear if it is your first made-to-measure garment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
