Tailoring your clothes makes all the difference — Emily Vancamp.

What comes to your mind when you listen to the word tailor? Do you think they are mundane services? Well, yes and no. Tailoring is an art form, just like how painting or singing is. To turn just about anything into something that you dreamed of… well that’s something. It takes professionalism, experience and an eye for your taste. But finding this kind of a tailor is hard. Luckily for us Aussies, a certain tailor with master calibration, dedication and class is easily available to cater to our needs.

THE TAILOR KHALLOUF

Ali Khallouf is a tailor who immigrated to Australia in 1993 and has been working most of his life time in the tailoring business with his father. After working with his father for 7 years, he moved out and started his own venture called ‘The Tailor Khallouf’. Ali is known to be a very particular tailor and prides on delivering a superb fit and style when it comes to tailoring.

Services offered by the Tailor Khallouf:

Bespoke Tailor — In simple terms, custom made suits are called bespoke suits. Having a bespoke garment means that everything is 100% customized to fit you as an individual. You are getting a one-of-a-kind garment that takes into consideration your individual body shape, wear preference, and overall sense of style. This means that it’s not just the measurements but also the material, pattern, comfort, colour, personality of the person etc that the suit will conform to.

Bespoke is more than just custom tailoring. Bespoke is the next level of custom — that suit would not belong to anyone’s personality but yours. This suit gives the highest symbol of professionalism. Even under bespoke suits, the tailor Khallouf has many different varieties.

A full bespoke suit

Formal suits

Suits for women — yes, Khallouf also provides custom and bespoke suits for women.

Wedding bespoke suits — nothing like wearing the cloth version of yourself on your wedding day!

Wedding dresses — the tailor Khallouf not only makes suits for the groom and the best men, but also wedding dresses for the bride. He is known to make dresses of such fineness and fitting, that it’s the perfect thing to wear on such a happy day in one’s life.

Custom tailor

Alterations — if you are anywhere in Surry Hills, Woolloomooloo or Chiswick then you can easily get alterations done.

Invisible mending — sometimes when our clothes or suits tear the wrong way, we really give up all hope. We think that we can never repair it and we should now throw it away. Don’t! Always take your damaged cloth to The tailor Khallouf first. With over 37 years of experience and skill, he is the right person who can mend the most difficult of fixes.

Navy uniforms — came home from the navy and need a new custom suit for work? Then just leave your measurements and requirements for the suit at Khallouf and you can pick it up before heading back to the sea!

Wedding suits — get the perfect suit for your perfect day!

Hospitality uniforms

Clean and press — along with custom, bespoke, formal and other suits and dresses made to order, the tailor Khallouf also provides a clean and press service. So if you have a lot of shirts that need pressing, then send over the rumpled ones and get pressed ones back in no time!

As a customer, you will want to know what kinds of tailoring are available. Mainly, there are 3 popular types of tailoring:

Made-to-measure — a made to measure suit is created using an already existing pattern. You can choose from existing patterns and designs and then make it to your measurements!

Bespoke — bespoke is made only for one person. This garment is made entirely from scratch. They take your measurements, fabric, tastes and preferences and make anything you want from the very beginning. It is the opposite of ready to wear.

Ready-to-wear — as the name suggests, these clothes are already made in standard sizes so they can be sold directly.

Depending on what you want, tailor Khallouf can make suits, garments and even dresses made for you!
