The Best Fabrics for Bespoke Suits:
A Guide to Luxury Tailoring
At Cuff & Crease, we know that a suit is only as exceptional as the fabric it’s crafted from. That’s why we partner with some of the world’s most prestigious mills—Gladson, Holland & Sherry, Scabal, Dormeuil, StyleBiella, and Carnet—to create bespoke suits that stand apart for their comfort, elegance, and enduring quality.
Why High-End Fabrics Matter in Bespoke Tailoring
A truly great bespoke suit doesn’t just look refined—it feels incredible and performs beautifully over time. The secret lies in the fabric. These premium mills blend centuries-old craftsmanship with modern innovation to create cloth that elevates every stitch.
Here’s what sets high-end fabrics apart:
Unmatched Heritage and Craftsmanship: Many of these mills have been perfecting their weaving techniques for generations, combining traditional methods with modern technologies to produce fabrics of impeccable consistency and beauty.
Finest Natural Fibers: From Super 120s to Super 200s merino wools to luxurious blends of cashmere, silk, linen, and mohair, these fabrics are selected for their softness, breathability, and elegant drape.
Performance and Comfort: High-end fabrics offer natural stretch, superior wrinkle resistance, and an unparalleled ability to move with you. This ensures your bespoke suit isn’t just luxurious—it’s practical for real life.
Timeless Aesthetics: Whether it’s a classic navy solid, a seasonal glen plaid, or a sophisticated check, these mills design patterns and colors that transcend trends. Your bespoke suit becomes a timeless wardrobe investment.
