A customized Hideoki Bespoke garment conjures up many images and feelings—a privileged upbringing, the richness of life, and the camaraderie of the right friends. The experience of creating that garment pampers in a similar fashion.
We invite our clients to relax, enjoy a glass of fine wine or premium spirits and be an integral part of the Hideoki Bespoke innovative process. Together, we create a customized garment that fits like a second skin while reflecting the individuality of its owner.
“Dressing is a way of life.”Yves Saint Laurent
The joy of designing a client’s personal wardrobe begins with a wonderful discovery of the individual himself. Understanding a client’s lifestyle, personality and family, as well as what they do for a living and for pleasure allow us to design garments that are a faithful expression of that life.
It begins with a casual conversation on the art of being a gentleman shared over a glass of fine wine or premium spirits, or while engaging in a game of chess. This conversation is unique for every client, yet the dialog invariably leads us to the same end: a true understanding of the unique and timeless garments the client needs—whether for a special event, a wardrobe enhancement or a makeover to help them reach a new station in life.
“We don’t design clothes, we enhance lifestyles.”Dedrick Thomas
While the consulting stage helps the client identify the particular garments to add to their wardrobe, the concept stage ensures these garments are crafted as a true expression of their life. And this begins with selecting the fabric.
Fabric has its own language—the drape, the hand, the interplay of pattern, texture and color. Choosing the perfect fabric is paramount to constructing a properly personalized garment. We walk clients through this process while guiding their exploration and indulging them with the most exquisite fabrics from the finest French, English, and Italian mills, including Dormeuil, Scabal, Zegna, Loro Piana, and Holland & Sherry.
To further customize each garment, we encourage the client to go a step beyond by enhancing the fabric with styling options—including unique treatments from the client’s own imagination.
“Attention to detail is the most important aspect in the creation of a unique masterpiece.”Dedrick Thomas
Achieving a customized fit requires more than accurate measurements.
It demands knowledge of the client’s lifestyle, sensibilities of the fabric, the purpose of the garment, and the personalization options selected. Having discovered this in the previous consultation and concept stages, we proceed by hand-taking over 50 exact measurements across the touch points of the body.
The result is an exquisitely tailored garment that speaks to the unique fit and lifestyle of our client. Best described as a dance between the fabric and the touch points of the body, it leads to a distinguished stride, a poised presence, and a true look of confidence.
“Old world craftsmanship in its most rare form.”Dedrick Thomas
Time-honored and hand-tailored, our traditional, old world construction methods are the soul behind each masterpiece garment. There are no shortcuts when taking an artisan’s approach to creating garments of enduring appeal.
Whether creating a unique hand-cut bespoke garment or a custom pattern personalized with styling options, the create process runs from four to ten weeks. Each garment is as distinctive as the client it was created for, with an exacting and elegant natural fit that rewards with an enduring appeal and timeless elegance.
“I have the simplest of tastes. I am always satisfied with the best.”Oscar Wilde
