Explore the most frequently asked questions about bespoke suits, tailoring preferences, and personal styling choices, brought to you by Lamilago Bespoke Tailors in Adelaide.
1. How many suits should a man own?
The ideal number varies by lifestyle, but most men benefit from owning 3–5 quality suits. For Adelaide gentlemen, Lamilago recommends starting with a versatile navy suit, a classic grey, and a formal black suit—perfect for work, weddings, and black-tie events.
2. What’s your go-to suit colour?
Navy blue remains the most popular suit colour at Lamilago Bespoke Tailors. It’s timeless, stylish, and ideal for Adelaide weddings, office wear, and social events, easily matched with shirts and premium accessories.
3. Do you prefer suits in warm or cool seasons?
Suits are perfect year-round with the right fabric. For Adelaide’s hot summers, Lamilago recommends breathable fabrics like linen, bamboo, or cotton. In winter, wool or tweed ensures warmth with elegance.
4. What is the most versatile suit colour?
Navy blue is unmatched in versatility—it transitions seamlessly from business to evening wear. At Lamilago, it's our top recommendation for those investing in their first custom-made suit in Adelaide.
5. Do you like classic or contemporary suit styles?
Whether you prefer traditional tailoring or modern silhouettes, Lamilago Bespoke offers both. From timeless single-breasted suits to trend-forward slim-fit cuts, we design to suit your personality.
6. Is brand important when purchasing a suit?
While brands matter to some, Lamilago values craftsmanship and custom tailoring above all. Our bespoke suits in Adelaide are measured to perfection, offering luxury without relying on labels.
7. Do you prefer lighter or heavier suit fabrics?
Seasonal fabric is key. Lighter options like bamboo and cotton are best for Adelaide’s summers, while wool and flannel are ideal for colder months. Lamilago offers tailored suits crafted from premium seasonal materials.
8. Would you wear a bold-coloured suit like maroon or emerald?
Absolutely. At Lamilago, we embrace personality through colour. Bold shades like maroon or forest green are ideal for weddings and fashion-forward occasions.
9. What lining do you prefer inside a suit jacket?
Half-lined jackets in Cupro or Bemberg are best for Adelaide’s climate, offering breathability without sacrificing structure. Lamilago allows custom linings, monograms, and even printed patterns inside your jacket.
10. Do you prefer single-vent, double-vent, or no-vent jackets?
Single-vent is sleek and versatile; double-vent is more traditional. No-vent is minimalist. Lamilago offers all options, tailored to suit your silhouette and preference.
11. How often should you dry-clean your suit?
Dry clean only when necessary—every 3–6 wears or when visibly stained. Lamilago recommends spot cleaning and proper storage to maintain the life of your luxury bespoke suit.
12. What matters more: appearance or practicality?
Both. Lamilago ensures a balance—sharp style and wearable comfort. Each suit is tailored for elegance and ease, using breathable and functional fabrics.
13. Do you match accessories like watches and cufflinks with your suit?
Yes, accessories complete the look. At Lamilago, we encourage pairing cufflinks, ties, and timepieces that accentuate your custom suit’s colour and fabric.
14. Do you like embroidery or initials inside your suit?
Custom embroidery adds distinction. Lamilago offers personalised initials or meaningful messages stitched discreetly inside your jacket lining.
15. What defines a luxury suit to you?
Craftsmanship, fabric, and fit. A Lamilago luxury suit features world-class tailoring, Italian or English fabrics like cashmere or silk, and a flawless fit.
16. Are designer labels essential to you?
Designer names can carry prestige, but Lamilago’s value lies in precision tailoring. Our suits rival top global labels with made-to-measure quality and fit.
17. Would you consider suit rentals or subscriptions?
While convenient, rentals lack individuality. Lamilago bespoke suits are tailored to last, offering lifelong value unmatched by rental services.
18. Do you prefer clean, minimal designs or intricate stitching?
Minimal designs are timeless, while detailed stitching showcases individuality. Lamilago tailors suits with both approaches, based on your personal taste.
19. Do you prefer bold lapels or simple ones?
Notch lapels are subtle and classic, while peak lapels add flair. At Lamilago, lapel styles are customized to suit the occasion and your style confidence.
20. Do you like suits with or without shoulder padding?
Padded shoulders offer structure for formal occasions; unstructured designs feel more relaxed. Lamilago tailors both, based on the silhouette you prefer.
21. One-button, two-button, or three-button jackets?
Two-button jackets are universally flattering and modern. Lamilago also crafts classic three-button styles for a more traditional look.
22. Do you prefer flap or patch pockets?
Flap pockets give a formal edge, while patch pockets offer a casual charm. Lamilago designs bespoke suits in both styles to match your lifestyle.
23. Do celebrity suit styles inspire you?
Celebrities influence trends, but your suit should reflect you. At Lamilago, we blend celebrity-inspired styles with timeless bespoke tailoring in Adelaide.
