Why Buy Custom Made Clothing From Bosley Bangier?

Most off the rack brands cut their clothes for the masses. They try to maximize their potential customer base, so their sizes are much more "safe" i.e. made to fit an overweight person with a 42" chest, or an extremely athletic person with a 42" chest, or an average build with a 42" chest. The end result is a piece of clothing that just doesn't fit any one body quite right. A ready-to-wear "high fashion" designer creates his clothes from a very specific set of idealized body dimensions, usually starting from a "nine heads" model (the bodies proportion is equivalent to nine heads). This translates to a 6' 155lb 38" chest, 29" waist for males or a 5'9" 115lb. 34" chest, 24" waist, 32" hips for women. The clothing is then "graded", proportioned, to all the other sizes. The clothing can be stunning and often times beautiful.

The problem is that the proportions of the sizes do not mirror the general population and the styles can often be impractical for everyday wear.

People come in all shapes and sizes, with different tastes and lifestyles. Custom clothing not only fits your individual body dimensions but allows you to select the design details that fit your personality.
