IF YOU CAN’T REACH US, WE’LL COME TO YOU
If visiting the tailoring studio isn’t convenient, we’re pleased to offer a visiting service for made to measure men’s suits. Igor can meet you at home or work, guiding you through cloths, linings and design details, with swatches brought to you. Prefer to start remotely?
We’re happy to arrange a tailor consultation online through phone or video call. We can then post fabrics for you to consider at your own pace. Simply get in touch via our contact page to begin.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Explore answers to the most common questions about our bespoke tailoring services, ensuring you have all the information you need to make an informed decision.
What’s the difference between made to measure and bespoke?
Made to measure uses a pre-established block pattern, adjusted to your measurements and preferences. It offers a precise, personal fit with less time and cost than full bespoke, while still reflecting your style.
How long does a made to measure suit take?
Typically, your suit will be ready in around 4 to 6 weeks. Timings may vary slightly depending on fabric choice and fittings, but we’ll always keep you informed throughout the process.
Can I choose my own fabric and design details?
Yes, absolutely. Igor will guide you through a selection of fine cloths and details including lapels, linings, and buttons, so the suit feels truly your own.
Do you offer fittings outside the studio?
Yes. If you’re based in London, the South East or nearby, we’re happy to visit you at home or work. Consultations can also begin virtually, with swatches posted for review.
Are made to measure suits suitable for formal events?
They are. A made to measure suit is ideal for business, weddings, or refined occasions, offering sharp lines, comfort and subtle individuality — all without excess.
“Following a successful and enjoyable personal shopping experience purchased as a gift for my wife, I recently discovered that Igor had started Dandylion Style and contacted him to carry out alterations to a number of suit jackets. Very happy with the results and as I required a new suit for the office, decided to use his bespoke tailoring service. Igor is great to work with, very flexible, knowledgable, great to discuss ideas with and the finished suit is exactly as I wanted. Very happy!”
“I passed by the window and was totally inspired by the bespoke clothes range. Igor listened, advised and created the funkiest waistcoat, then I thought – what else? Now I own two brilliant new shirts, a unique tie and handkerchief combo and my suit fits better than when I bought it. My girlfriend also looks stunning in her new dress, but I’ll let her tell you about that. In the words of that famous actor…I’ll be back.”
Our approach to tailoring is very relaxed and we offer amazing, luxurious British fabrics – such as Tweed, Cashmere, Cotton, Linen, Wool and Mohair. We can of course tailor to your specific needs and incorporate unique designs such as quirky, funky and colourful linings to personalise our products for you.
At Dandylion Style we offer many options to tailor your suit using different grades such as hand stitching, machine stitching and half hand stitching.
Our studio is based in a small, quiet and historic village in West Sussex called ‘Ardingly’ but, knowing how busy our clients are, we can also arrange to meet at your place of work, in your home or anywhere that is more convenient for you with our “Visiting tailor” service. Dandylion Style already caters for many locations around Sussex, London, Europe and USA. Wherever we meet, you will be measured by an experienced tailor who will advise you on fittings, fabrics, linings and buttons and present you with our swatches that include the very best of British mills.
Browse our web site to see examples of our tailoring designs and ready to wear collections; you will also see how to contact us to book an appointment or to have a friendly chat on the phone with one of our experienced tailors with any queries you may have.
