Full Shoulder
Measure straight across the upper back, from the tip of one shoulder to the tip of the other.
- Keep the tape flat across the back.
- Do not follow the curve of the shoulders.
Follow this step-by-step guide to provide the measurements required for your custom-tailored suit. Accurate measurements help our tailoring team prepare your selected design with greater precision.
Ask another person to take your measurements whenever possible. Stand naturally, keep the tape flat against the body, and do not pull it too tightly.
Important:Â Measure over a fitted shirt and lightweight trousers. Do not measure over a jacket, thick jumper or bulky clothing
Use a flexible tailor’s measuring tape, not a rigid ruler.
Keep your shoulders relaxed and avoid holding your breath.
Repeat each measurement to confirm it is accurate.
Submit all measurements in either inches or centimetres.
