How Virtual Suit Fittings Work: Custom Suits for Men Across Regional Australia
Living outside Australia’s major cities doesn’t mean giving up on quality mens suits. With today’s technology, tailor-led virtual fittings make it possible to design, measure, and order a custom suit from wherever you are. Suit Society’s Virtual Tailor service bridges the distance—bringing tailored suits and exceptional fit to regional Australia.
What is a Virtual Fitting?
Virtual fitting means you don’t need to come into a physical showroom. You’ll have video consultations, guided measurement sessions, fabric and design review via images / fabric swatches mailed or viewed online. The process replicates in-studio tailoring steps: measurement, design choices, first fitting, final adjustments.
Step-by-Step: Suit Society’s Virtual Process
-
Initial consultation via video: style preferences, intended use (business, wedding, formal).
-
Sending or selecting fabric swatches: you see colours, textures, weights.
-
Measurement guidance: video + measurement guide; possibly using someone at home to help.
-
Design customisation: lapel, pockets, linings, buttons.
-
Suit construction in house; shipping and final adjustments.
Advantages of Virtual Tailoring
-
Access: you’re not limited by geography; even remote towns can get premium tailoring.
-
Convenience: no travel time, flexible scheduling.
-
Choice: wide fabric options like in-studio.
-
Quality: Suit Society maintains the same craftsmanship, standards for virtual suits.
What to Watch Out For / How to Prepare
-
Precise measurement: follow instructions carefully; take multiple photos / video of posture.
-
Good lighting for fabric swatch selections; view fabric in natural light.
-
Provide your regular shirt / shoes so fit of trouser length, jacket sleeve can match what you actually wear.
-
Expect shipping time; allow for fittings / potential adjustments after arrival.
Cost, Turnaround & Comparisons
While the cost is similar to in-studio made-to-measure, virtual removes travel cost/time. Turnaround comparable: typically 7-9 weeks unless expedited. You’ll still get custom suit, tailored fit, and design flexibility.
Use Cases: Weddings, Business, Events
Regional clients planning weddings, or needing formal wear for events, find virtual fitting particularly helpful. For business travellers, or remote workers, it provides professional wear without sacrificing access.
If you’re outside a major city and want a suit that fits you perfectly—virtually—book a Virtual Tailor session with Suit Society. Let us guide you through, measure you remotely, and deliver the custom suit you deserve.
