Classification
Summary
A profession that takes measurements tailored to the customer's physique and requests, designs, cuts, sews, and finishes suits.
Description
The suit tailor (custom order) handles everything consistently from customer measurements, selection of fabric and design, pattern making, cutting, and sewing. After basting and final sewing, fittings are conducted, and through detailed adjustments, high-quality suits suited to the customer's body shape and preferences are crafted. This is a specialized occupation.
