We Make The Best Women's Custom Wedding Suits in NYC
It's time to forget the old script whereby men dressed one way and women dressed another. The times they are a changin' in fashion, as one would hope they are in many other respects as well. We're certainly in a more free wheeling era now, where styles are more fluid and androgynous. We are not, or at least we should not be, limited by proscribed gender roles in terms of clothing. Some women want to wear suits or tuxedos to their weddings, for example, which is where we at WATSON ELLIS come in!
I’ve had lots of women come to me recently for wedding suits. It's such a boss look, for a woman to wear a tuxedo or suit to their wedding, so I’m not surprised this trend has taken hold. Many want to wear tuxedos down the aisle itself; while other women want a tuxedo for the welcome / rehearsal dinner the night before. Others are looking for more casual or classic two piece suits to wear on their big day.
I've also had 'grooms' women' come to me for wedding suits. They’re part of the groom’s party rather than the bride’s, and they want to wear a suit. At WATSON ELLIS, we absolutely love this trend of women wearing custom wedding suits. We’re doing everything we can to get on board and help it flourish using our tailoring and design skills!
Wedding suits for women are a speciality for us now. If you’re a woman and you’re planning on wearing a suit to your wedding, it has to be right. There are plenty of shoddy places out there that’ll put something together for you. But unfortunately, as many of the clients who have ended up coming to us have experienced, the end results are usually not great. In such instances, it’s usually a case of a men’s custom suiting company making a suit for a woman and not knowing how to do it correctly. While there might be some cross over between men’s and women’s suits in terms of the ‘look’ of the final garments, making suits for women is a totally different process than making suits for men! The tailor has to know how to fit for women’s bodies and design to their tastes, and this requires experience and a different set of skills. At WATSON ELLIS, you’ll work with me, Melissa, a female tailor and designer with over 12 years of experience designing for and fitting both women’s and men’s bodies.
I know how to fit women's wedding suits to perfection, and I know how to design according to any clients’ respective tastes. I’ll work with you to create the perfect wedding suit. If you're a woman, and you're in the market for a woman's wedding suit, you should look no further than us.
A woman in a suit or tuxedo at her wedding is a truly incredible look. It’s confidant, stylish, modern, and strong. Visit us at watsonellis.com, and book in today for an obligation-free appointment to peruse fabrics and see if we're the right fit for you.
