The Essential Guide to Tailored Trousers
Tailored trousers are an essential part of any men’s luxury suit. But with so many styles, fits and measurements, it can be daunting to take your first step in the trouser-tailoring process.
At McCann Bespoke, our expert tailors help you craft and refine bespoke trousers that are a cut above the rest. Our specialists will help guide you through the process and give you the alterations you need to create trousers that will stand out. If you’re thinking about getting a pair of tailored trousers crafted, then see our essential guide for getting the look you need:
CHOOSE A STYLE THAT SUITS YOUR PERSONALITY
There are a vast range of trouser styles on the market, allowing you to express yourself creatively through your luxury garments. Straight, skinny, low-hanging – choosing a style that reflects your personality is an important part of the process. What message are you trying to send? Dressing to impress? Suiting up for career success? Looking to stand out at a social event? Our tailors can capture the perfect style for your occasion.
ENSURE A GOOD FIT
The fit of a pair of trousers makes all the difference – which is why only a bespoke piece can be relied on for the perfect measurements. Too tight or too loose, and your aesthetic will be ruined. The rigorous fittings you undertake when making your bespoke trousers will ensure that your finished piece isn’t too baggy or too tight.
DRESS FOR THE SEASON
Just like your favourite outerwear, tailored trousers are made to suit a season. In winter, enjoy the hunting and racing season in tweed or flannel. In summer, enjoy the lighter, breezier feel of tailored cotton or linen, which we cover in more detail in our guide to summer suit fabrics. Your tailor will advise on the weight and handle of each cloth, so you have trousers to suit your calendar.
COMPLEMENT YOUR SUITS
As the lower half of your bespoke suit, your trousers are a huge part of your overall look, and a well-tailored pair will add to it. Match your suit cloth for a full power look, or separate them for business casual, where a contrasting trouser does most of the work.
PAY ATTENTION TO THE DETAILS
Belt loops, buttons, side tabs, pockets, pleats – all of these details will give your tailored trousers the perfect finish. Incorporate the features into your suit design to make a unique piece that’s bespoke to you.
