Our In-Store Fitting Process

At SUITBAE, every fitting is more than just a measurement — it’s an experience. Whether you’re shopping for a wedding, races, or your next formal event, our in-store fitting process ensures your suit feels made for you from the moment you put it on.

Don't believe us? Have a look at our Main Collection before your visit. "Anything We Have On A Mannequin We Have In Your Size" Our huge Size Range Varies From 34" to a 58" Chest Size.

We combine precision, comfort, and expertise so that every customer leaves with a flawless fit and total confidence — the hallmark of a SUITBAE suit.

Step 1 — Welcome & Consultation

When you arrive at our Blackpool or Barnsley showroom, one of our fitters will greet you and discuss what you’re dressing for. Weddings, races, proms — every occasion has its own feel, and we’ll help you choose the right fabric, colour, and cut to match.

From classic three-pieces to our new double-breasted designs, we guide you through the collection so you can try styles that fit both your shape and your setting.

Step 2 — The Actual Fitting

Once you’ve seen something you like, we’ll begin the fitting — starting from the foundation up. First, we fit your shirt to get the collar and sleeve length right, followed by your trousers, adjusted to sit comfortably and fall cleanly over your shoes.

Next come the brogues, which set the correct stance and length before we add your waistcoat and jacket to shape the full silhouette. Finally, we complete the look with a tie set, giving you a true sense of the finished outfit.

Every step is precise and practical — no guesswork, just expert fitting. Our stretch-weave fabrics and adjustable waistbands ensure comfort, structure, and natural movement, so you feel as good as you look all day long.

Step 3 — Tailoring Adjustments

If you feel you require alterations, our fitter will take precise pins or measurements to refine your fit — adjusting sleeve length or trouser length where needed. These small refinements make a noticeable difference, ensuring your suit sits exactly as it should.

All alterations are facilitated by SUITBAE, and carried out with speed and attention to detail by our trusted alterations partners. Most are completed within a few days, so your suit is ready well before your event.

Step 4 — The Collection

On your agreed collection date, your suit will be prepared, steamed, and ready for you to take home. We ensure every garment is pressed to perfection and packaged with care, so it’s ready for your event straight away.

Every SUITBAE suit is presented with your hanger and travel bag, keeping it pristine and protected on the move.

Why Our Fitting Process Matters

Our customers choose SUITBAE because we combine the look of a bespoke suit with the accessibility of off-the-rack tailoring. It’s the attention to detail — the way the jacket closes cleanly, the waistcoat sits flat, and the trousers drape naturally — that separates a good fit from a great one.

And with sizes up to a 58-inch chest and 52-inch waist, we make sure every customer gets that same level of precision.
