3 Suits We're Loving for the Summer Wedding Season
As the summer wedding season gets into full swing now, it's time to explore a few looks that we think will no doubt ensure you stand out as a guest, or even the groom.
E. Jean Carroll lawyer Roberta Kaplan fights the good fight in Watson Ellis custom
So SO proud to have suited up lead counsel for E. Jean Carroll, Roberta Kaplan, for the recent historic lawsuit against you-know-who. Soooooo proud, to just have been a part of this, in some small way, on the right side of history.
It's the season for custom overcoats
We've certainly noticed that custom overcoats are gaining traction lately; they're becoming a bigger part of our business every year. And it only makes sense. The same principles apply between suiting and coats:
Custom tuxedo versus custom suit
Whatβs the difference between a suit and a tuxedo? We break it down for you and include a handy image showcasing the differences.
For all your velvet wedding suit and tuxedo needs
After having a velvet-tuxedo-seeking client come to us recently complaining about how he had been turned away by several other custom suit companies, we decided to write a post about the matter. See, we LOVE velvet, and we're very experienced at working with it -- it's a tricky fabric, so experience is essential. Whether it be a velvet winter wedding suit or a velvet tuxedo, we know how to turn out better garments in this material than anyone else.
How much does it cost to get a custom suit made?
One of the biggest concerns people have in shopping around for a custom suit is cost. It's no secret that getting a custom suit made can be expensive. But how expensive? And why should you shell out for it instead of just getting something off the rack? Considering the interest in the topic, we thought we'd write a post on the cost of our custom wear at Watson Ellis and how / why we believe it's justified.
White Wedding Pant Suits for the Bride
Lately, Iβve had several clients come to me looking for a custom white bridal tuxedo. Itβs an incredible look when done right, and Iβve been so happy with how the ones we have created so far have turned out.
Real clients in real custom suits
Except for some of our earliest shots, all the photos on our website are of real clients wearing suits that we have actually made. We use real clients to model our suits, not models (although some of our clients have actually been models, which is great too!), because we want everyone to see how great they too could look in a custom suit. We want to give an accurate impression of what we can do for you. And because we think our clients are truly beautiful and we want to celebrate them.
