What sets Trend Custom Tailors apart from “off-the-rack” labels and “Made-to-measure” labels?
Firstly, all operations to crafting your bespoke commission is undertaken in the very premise in which you are standing and nothing is sent out for subcontracting or otherwise. Secondly, the process which is used by Trend is created around educating you as a patron and facilitating a truly collaborative experience unique to each individual where each step is certain and deliberate only when you are confident to continue enjoying being the inspiration behind the craft of Bespoke tailoring.
With over fifty years of this practice and experience behind the House and in catering to patrons living in Toronto and abroad, the bespoke tailors of this house are firmly dedicated to their trade and are encouraged by the support of our country and the diversity of influences and cultures here in Canada.

Whilst 10oz may seem like a winter weight, the softness of this fabric is illusive to the eye and is quite comfortable even into spring and perfect for fall, thus reflecting its seasonal longevity in the wardrobe.
The two-button Bespoke jacket is part of a two-piece suit commission that is predominantly navy blue in colour, a staple in a gentleman’s wardrobe, and is particularly representative of the changing attitudes towards the work environments and corporate “Blue” uniforms of today. For a first commission, it is a perfect and versatile start to building a wardrobe that is effective in any circumstance that may arise going forward in life for many years to come. Stylish and sleek, formal but nonchalant…
