The best tailors seem to be located on the other side of the world… my brother is currently getting a full suit made up in Vietnam’s Hoi An, while I am ordering a personalised shirt from Australia!
Tailors Mark is an online provider of custom designed, made to measure business and dress shirts for men and women. Tailors Mark promises to offer an unparalleled extensive selection of fabrics with every imaginable tailoring option to make the shirt original and completely unique. The Tailors Mark website is very UK user friendly and, despite the distance, this company remains totally at the service of the customer with a very active twitter account and very effective communication – I was amazed by the immediate email response when I had a question. The online shop shows 3D imagery displaying your shirt as you design it, making this interactive experience clever and fun.
Keen to create a shirt inspired by the Thoroughly Modern Milly brand, I opted for the bright red and white striped 100% cotton, with striking blue buttons. Each step is easy to complete with a simple lay-out for even the most impatient customers! I added in some quirky detailing; a left pocket, Milanese cuffs and best of all, a Milly monogram inside the collar. I am counting down the days until my very particular personalised shirt arrives.
The prices are surprisingly reasonable, a fully tailored shirt will cost you under £100, a fraction of the Savile Row price and around half the price of an equivalent garment sold via traditional retail.
It may be located far away but Tailors Mark makes its service accessible to customers all over the world offering top class customer support and three week express delivery wherever you are. Don’t conform to high street specifications, design your perfect shirt today with Tailors Mark.
