Tailored-Fit Suits FAQs

Find answers to common questions about tailored-fit suits, including how they compare with other fits and what to consider when choosing the right style for you.  

What is a tailored-fit suit? 

A tailored-fit suit is shaped more closely around the chest, waist and legs than a regular-fit suit, creating a cleaner and more defined silhouette. 

It provides a contemporary fitted appearance while generally allowing more room and flexibility than a slim-fit suit. What is the difference between tailored fit and slim fit? 

Tailored-fit suits sit between regular and slim fits. They are shaped through the body to create a structured appearance but are not normally cut as closely as slim-fit suits. 

A slim-fit suit typically has narrower sleeves, a more closely fitted jacket and slimmer trousers, while a tailored fit offers slightly more room for movement. 

How should a tailored-fit suit fit? 

The jacket should sit neatly across the shoulders without pulling, while the lapels should lie flat against the chest. The waist should appear shaped but should not feel tight when the jacket is fastened. 

The trousers should follow the natural line of the legs without excessive fabric or restriction. Always check the individual product measurements and House of Cavani size guide before choosing your size. 

Are tailored-fit suits suitable for weddings? 

Yes. Tailored-fit suits are a popular choice for grooms, groomsmen and wedding guests because they provide a polished, contemporary silhouette. 

Choose a classic navy, blue or grey design for a traditional wedding look, or explore beige, green and patterned styles for something more distinctive. 

Should I size up in a tailored-fit suit? 

You should usually begin with your normal suit size, although the closer cut may feel different if you typically wear regular-fit tailoring. 

If your measurements fall between sizes or you prefer additional room through the chest, waist or thighs, consider choosing the larger size and checking the specific garment measurements before ordering. 

Can I wear a tailored-fit suit to work? 

A tailored-fit suit can be worn for business meetings, office occasions and professional events. Darker shades such as navy, charcoal and black offer a classic formal appearance, while subtle checks can add character without looking overly casual. 

Complete the outfit with a formal shirt, tie and smart leather shoes.
