The origin of the term bespoke dates back to the days when a customer ordering a garment would select and reserve a cloth that was then “bespoken” or “spoken for”.

Today bespoke means “made to personal specification”. It entails meticulous attention to detail, exceptional cutting and making skills, and a wide choice of quality fabrics.

It differs markedly from the more widely available “made to measure” item, which is a limited alteration to a pre-determined style and make.

At J. H. Cutler in addition to more traditional garments we pride ourselves on having ability to design and create extremely individual items of clothing that are limited only by the imagination.
