What’s your process like? How do we get started?
Fill out the initial questionnaire, which will allow us to make the most of our first appointment.
We’ll set an initial appointment. We’ll use that time to go over your needs, wants, and lifestyle. Based on that information we’ll look through fabric and design options, then fit the clothing.
Please bring a garment that you generally enjoy the fit of so we have a place to start discussing your desires, expectations and preferences.
You’ll receive an emailed invoice for detailing the fabric and styling of each garment. Once you review and to confirm these details, the order will be placed. Orders normally take 6-8 weeks. See below for rush options.
You will be advised once your garments arrive and we’ll set a fitting appointment. Alterations typically take seven to ten business days.
Garments will be delivered and tried on for your approval.

Do you offer rush services?
We can rush a shirt order for a charge of $100 per order for two weeks an $200 for one week.
Suits can be rushed for $175 per garment. The time to complete a rush order will be between two and three weeks.
Shipping can also be expedited. Those charges will be determined once the order has been made and will be determined by the manufacturer. Typically overnight charges can run upwards of $100. Usually we will ship the garment flat to lessen the cost as much as possible.
Charges for rush orders and shipping are passed through to the client from the manufacturer; there is no mark-up involved.
I’m getting married. What do I do next?
Congratulations! Most suits can be ordered and delivered in the standard time frame: six to eight weeks. Certain styles — tuxedos, morning coats and waistcoats, for example — may require a few extra weeks. The best way to ensure that you get everything you need (without paying rush charges) is to come in for your first fitting as soon as you’ve chosen a date. Generally, we recommend placing your order four months before the wedding.
We’ll schedule the fittings for every man in the wedding party — it’s one less thing to worry about. Just give us a list of names and contact information, and we’ll meet to go over measurements and fit whenever their schedules allow. We can also set up a groom’s party, where the groom and his entourage can get measured and choose options at the same time, either in person or via teleconference.
Secondary fittings can take place in the same way. Once the suits have arrived, we’ll meet with the groom and his men individually, or we can take care of the whole gang all at once (which usually provides the bride with some peace of mind). Alterations should be taken care of one to two weeks prior to the wedding.
Do some members of the groom’s party live outside of Austin? No problem. We can perform a virtual fitting online. Victor will walk the client through the measurement process using video to ensure that the measurements are taken accurately.
