First of all, congratulations to you and your partner!

To create a suit for your wedding with Surmesur, it’s quite simple: we advise on a first meeting with a stylist in our showroom (this meeting is completely free, and lasts about 45 minutes). You can bring your partner then, no problem! The stylist will confirm with you what you want: colours, fit, style of your suit, your groomsmen’s suit, etc.

Afterwards, we organize a VIP event! The VIP event is really the time for you and your groomsmen to finalize the looks and take the measurements: the event is meant to be fun! As soon as the measurements are taken, we take care of producing your suits and we contact you as soon as the clothes are ready to book a fitting session.At the fitting, we confirm the style and fit with the whole group – if adjustments are needed, they are included in the price!

Basically, the whole process can take up to 10 weeks, plus an additional 2 weeks for alterations. We suggest starting the process at least 3 months in advance of your big event.

Surmesur now offers made-to-measure women’s clothing. Ask our stylists for more information!

However, given the complexity of women’s measurements compared to men’s, additional alterations may be required, which may extend your waiting time by a few weeks. So it’s important to plan ahead to avoid any delays!

SURMESUR will not pay for alterations due to a weight change (loss or gain). If the weight change requires the garment to be remade or altered, the customer will be responsible for the resulting costs. Please contact your stylist for details about which weight variations are covered.

 

If it has been more than 12 months since your last measurement, or if there has been a change in weight since your last measurement, we strongly recommend that you update your file with your stylist.
