Fabric Measurement Guide.

Understanding yardage requirements ensures your bespoke outfits are tailored to perfection without waste. Explore our fabric consumption guides below.

How Much Fabric to Buy?

Required fabric lengths depend on the wearer's height, chest size, garment type, and fabric pattern (stripes/checks require extra fabric for pattern matching). Use our interactive estimator below or view the reference tables.

A Note for Bespoke Cuts:

If your design involves heavy gathers, pleats, cowl necks, or horizontal stripes that need aligning, we highly recommend consulting your tailor and ordering an extra 0.5 meters of fabric.
