SS Homme - Bespoke Menswear : True Sartorial delight!

I am a fan of bespoke tailoring craft! I discovered tailored excellence couple of years back when I was struggling with weight issues and it was difficult to fit into the ready-to-wear off-the-shelf clothes that were either too constricting or too loose. Even if I did fit into them - there were issues with styling and choice(color/fabric/cut etc.) was quite limited for my body type.

I wanted to look sharp and a Made-To-Measure service came to my rescue. I was wearing that is "my style statement" written all over it!

Although, frankly, made-to-measure service has it's downside too, but, nonetheless it offers a great insight into the quality of craftsmanship that can be as good or as bad it gets!

The idea is to choose your tailor well. It's just the same - like going to the right hairstylist for the best haircut!

Clothes maketh the man and fine tailoring can transform you into a fine gentleman!

India is fast catching up with bespoke services that offer exceptional fabrics, fit and value for money to the customers.

The Indian man is no longer interested in limiting "custom-made" to his wedding trousseau alone!

Although, India is yet to produce a Savile Row of London, the Indian man of substance (I'm a front runner for this title ;)) is fast embracing custom-made services with a made-in-India tag but with western style sensibilities.

Speaking of made-in-India with western style sensibilities, SS Homme - a Mumbai based clothing brand offering a complete Made-To-Measure service - solely for Menswear comes right up to my mind!

SS Homme believes in keeping it simple & sophisticated. Impeccable tailoring speaks volumes of a man’s wardrobe and that's what they strive to achieve. It's a personalized approach towards creating an up-to-date yet classy business & evening attire, giving men quality & finesse at an affordable price.

The silhouettes are European, crafted to perfection. The detailing is exclusive and the look very distinct. The fabrics are of the finest wool ranging from 100s to super 120s and the formal wear is characterized by its classic colors and contemporary cuts.

SS Homme custom-make formal wear, to suit each customer's preference & personality with emphasis given on the cut, fabric & fine tailoring. Quite simply, every minute detail is taken care of and SS Homme pride themselves on the fact that a customer will walk away from their personalized service, completely satisfied.

And the range? From tuxedos for Black tie events, to single/double breasted suits for business & evening wear to traditional classic Bandhgalas and more - SS Homme offers a wide menswear range!

Everything is customized - including ties & bow ties! And that is the true beauty of this clothing brand that I truly appreciate!
