Suit up with Lord’s Tailor
What is an immaculately-dressed bride without her equally dashing groom by her side? A sharp suit, a pair of polished shoes, combed-down hair and big smile is basically (and usually) all the groom needs to play the leading man on his wedding day. But it is the groom in a well-made bespoke suit with the right accessories who really stands out like a star, says Robert Loh, founder and master tailor of Lord’s Tailor. Many grooms in Malaysia, generally prefer to rent their suits, or pick out a designer outfit right off the rack. These suits are not poor choices, but if you look carefully, they somehow do not fit the groom as neatly as it should – perhaps the jacket is slightly loose around the shoulders, the shirt doesn’t look quite right under the jacket, cuffs that are a bit longer than they should be, etc. These details, seemingly small and insignificant, do affect the overall appearance of the groom!
Loh has been tailoring fine suits for men for over 33 years, using only the finest fabrics from major European mills such as Ermenegildo Zegna, Loro Piana, Cerruti, Lessona and Vitale Barberis Canonico. But it’s not just the fabrics and a well-cut suit that make a groom look dapper, says Loh. A master craftsman, with his knowledge of and experience with different materials and designs, is also a stylist for the man who enjoys the best in life. There are various kinds of suits – tuxedos, morning suits, lounge suits, black tie and white tie, etc, an even wider range of shirts, collars, lapels and ties! How do you choose the most appropriate combination for you?
The most important things to consider are the groom’s personality, style and body shape, says Loh. At Lord’s Tailor, you can expect the best when it comes to service and quality, which is why Lord’s Tailor is the leading choice in fine, custom-made menswear.
The common issue that men have about custom-making their wedding suits is the wearability of their outfits after the wedding. This is exactly why your tailor needs to consider your personality and style – a master tailor will be able to cut you a suit that you can also use in the boardroom or a formal event. Change your suit accordingly by pairing the suit with a vest for your wedding of formal occasions, or adding an Ascot Tie or Crumpled Tie to your otherwise business-looking power suit for a trendy look!
From formal events to a night on the town, the suit is top choice for the fashionably well-dressed. Malaysian heartthrob actor Fahrin, for instance, was voted best dressed at a prestigious award s event recently. He was suited by master tailor Loh, as was Datuk Khalid Mohamad Jiwa during his wedding when he married one of Malaysia’s biggest celebrities, Datuk Siti Nurhaliza Tarudin.
A well-cut, made to ordersuit is one of the best investments in fashion a man can have. So before you walk down that aisle with your radiant bride, drop by Lord’s Tailor for a consultation and let master tailor Robert Loh create that perfect suit for you.
