Can a Tailor Copy a Suit You Already Own?
Question answered: “Can a Bangkok tailor copy my suit?”
By Tony Ram, Second-generation owner, Peninsula Bespoke Tailor · Updated
Yes. A good tailor can copy a suit, jacket, shirt or trousers you already own, measuring the garment and your body, then improving anything that doesn't fit quite right. Bring the garment with you. It's one of the fastest ways to get a suit you'll like, because you already know the style works for you.
How does copying work?
- Bring the garment you love.
- We measure the garment and take your 30 body measurements.
- We note what you'd like changed (length, waist, sleeves).
- You choose a fabric.
- We make the new piece and fit it on you.
Can you copy designer pieces?
We copy the cut and fit of your own garment for your own use. We don't reproduce brand labels or logos.
Do I need to leave the garment with you?
Usually only for the day of your consultation, so we can measure it properly.
