"Fashion is fleeting. Style is eternal"
From Tom Ford Zurich to Personal Men's Outfitter
I am Alexander Shubin, founder of “The Sartorialist” in Zurich – a fashion designer with passion, experience, and the best connections to traditional Italian textile manufacturers. As the long-time manager of the first Tom Ford store in Europe in Zurich, I have dedicated myself wholeheartedly to finest men’s fashion and eventually felt the desire to open my own exclusive men’s clothing store in the heart of Zurich. The special “Italian touch” has been a true passion of mine from the beginning in the production and sale of suits and other products such as shirts, jeans and accessories, as well as keeping a keen eye on new trends. At “The Sartorialist”, you benefit from my many years of diverse experience as the manager of the Tom Ford store in Zurich. Each manufacturer I select is led by masters of their craft and can look back on decades of tradition. This way, you get to know the real faces behind the brands – and accordingly, my prices are fair and reasonable, so that your high-quality luxury suit doesn’t have to remain a distant dream.

Our made-to-measure suits are not comparable to off-the-rack suits – they are created in true tailoring tradition and with decades of experience. Yes, they are more expensive than conventional suits. But once you’ve worn a made-to-measure suit from The Sartorialist, you’ll feel the difference – and never want to wear anything else.
Which Suit Styles Are Popular for Weddings?
Every man has his own style – and every wedding its own character. We advise you comprehensively on which cut, fabric, and style suits you best:
• Classic three-piece suit with waistcoat – timelessly elegant
• Modern slim fit suit – sleek silhouette, clean look
• Italian linen suit – ideal for summer weddings
• Tuxedo or dinner jacket – for formal evening events

You decide the direction – we ensure it’s perfectly executed.
At The Sartorialist, You Always Deal with Me
No piece of clothing crosses my counter without me personally verifying its high quality with my own eyes and hands. At the same time, it’s important to me to find those suits for my customers that truly suit them and can reliably clothe and accompany them for years at various occasions. After all, a suit should be like a second skin – and from my experience as the manager of the Tom Ford Store Zurich, I know: Only when the individual measurements, the fabrics used, and the craftsmanship harmonize perfectly, a distinctive masterpiece of man and suit is created. This feeling of wearing such a suit cannot be described – a MAN simply has to experience it. So let’s calmly find out together which materials and cuts make you look your best and allow you to stand confidently as a man at every occasion, whether private or in business.

FAQ – Everything About Wedding Suits Made-to-Measure Suits in Zurich
How does the consultation process work with you?
Our consultation is the heartbeat of The Sartorialist – personal, honest, high-quality. Once you book an appointment with us in Zurich, we take at least 60 to 90 minutes to get to know you and your wishes precisely. You don't need any prior knowledge – we meet you exactly where you are.
The process:
Personal conversation: What is the context of the wedding? Which style do you like? What colors? Are there photos, wishes, a theme?
Fabric selection: You see, feel, and compare the finest Italian fabrics – from matte to glossy, from linen to cashmere.
Cut consultation: We show you various style directions – classic, modern, Italian, British – and advise you honestly on what suits your figure.
Measurement: Precise measuring is the foundation – we work with over 30 parameters.
Design decision: Choose collar shape, pockets, buttons, lining, initials, and other details.
Fittings fine-tuning: Two to three weeks later, your suit comes for fitting – small alterations are made on-site.
Our decades of experience pay off right here: You benefit not only from our tailoring craftsmanship but also from our ability to make your style visible. No rush, no pressure – just honest, stylish advice with substance.
What is the difference between a wedding suit and a normal business suit?
A wedding suit is not just an ordinary suit - it's a statement. While a business suit is primarily functional and understated, the wedding suit is at the center of one of the most emotional days of your life. It must not only fit perfectly but also reflect your character, match the style of the wedding, and stand the test of time in photos and memories.
At The Sartorialist Zurich, we design your wedding suit individually, using the finest Italian fabrics - such as those from Loro Piana, Vitale Barberis Canonico or Drago. Our fabrics are more expensive than standard materials, but they feel better, look more elegant, and last significantly longer. Additionally, our decades of experience in tailoring and style consulting ensures that your suit will be a masterpiece - not a compromise.
Why should I have my wedding suit custom-made in Zurich?
A wedding suit should not be off-the-rack - because your wedding is unique, and your suit should be too. A custom suit not only looks good but feels like a second skin. No pulling, no wrinkles, no compromises in cut, fabric, or style.
At The Sartorialist, you get more than just a custom suit - you receive a tailored experience: personal style consultation, selection from over 1,000 fabrics, dozens of cut variations, and high-quality Italian textiles that you would otherwise only find in the fashion houses of Milan or Rome.
Our customers choose us deliberately because they value quality, exclusivity, and craftsmanship. We are not a discount tailor - we are tailors with passion who create each piece with care and experience. This is our standard - and your advantage.
How much does a custom wedding suit cost at The Sartorialist in Zurich?
Our custom suits start at CHF 1690, with the final price heavily dependent on your choice of fabric and design. If you choose a particularly fine fabric from Loro Piana or Scabal, a luxurious lining, elaborate details, or a hand-stitched waistcoat, your wedding suit could also cost CHF 1,500 to CHF 2,500.
Yes, we are more expensive than providers using synthetic cheap fabrics and standard sizes. But we deliver quality without compromise: Italian weaving artistry, individual design, genuine custom work, and a service experience you would otherwise only get in London or Florence. Our customers appreciate this exclusivity - because they know that the value of a suit lies not in its price, but in how it feels to wear and the impression it makes.
How far in advance should I have my wedding suit made?
We recommend booking your appointment at least 8 to 10 weeks before the wedding - preferably earlier. This allows sufficient time for fabric selection, measurements, first fitting, any alterations, and your personal fine-tuning. For very exclusive fabrics or seasonal models (e.g., summer linen or tweed), delivery times may be longer.
At The Sartorialist, you don't get rushed production, but genuine custom work. Each piece is crafted according to your specifications - by experienced master tailors who deserve your trust. Last-minute requests are possible in exceptional cases - just ask us. But remember: those who come early get the full selection and the best service.
Which fabrics are particularly suitable for summer weddings?
For summer weddings, we recommend light, breathable fabrics such as linen, wool-linen blends, Super 130 or 150 wool, or particularly airy weaves made from tropical wool. These ensure that you stay fresh even at high temperatures - without compromising on style or elegance.
We carry a large selection of exclusive summer fabrics from Italian premium mills, including Loro Piana, Zegna, and Solbiati. These fabrics are not only of higher quality but also significantly more durable than conventional alternatives. Our experience helps you select the right material for the location, weather, and style of your wedding - stylish, elegant, and perfectly coordinated.
What is the difference between a tuxedo and a wedding suit?
A tuxedo is the epitome of formal menswear - with satin lapels, side stripes on the trousers, and typically in black or midnight blue. It is particularly suitable for evening events or elegant weddings with a "Black Tie" dress code.
A wedding suit offers more flexibility - it can be classic or modern, with or without a vest, with a bow tie or necktie, in blue, beige, green, or gray. At The Sartorialist, we provide detailed advice on which style suits you, your bride, and the wedding - and we craft your look with the quality of a haute couture house.
Our fabric selection for tuxedos includes exclusive Italian mohair-wool blends that you'll hardly find a second time in Zurich. The difference lies in the details - and in our commitment to enable your best possible appearance.
Can I also have a custom shirt made in Zurich?
Absolutely - and we even recommend it. A custom shirt is the logical complement to a custom suit. It fits perfectly, doesn't chafe, doesn't stand out, and looks flawless even without a jacket. You can choose from over 400 shirt fabrics - from classic poplin to luxurious Sea Island cotton.
Particularly popular for weddings: white or cream-colored shirts with hidden plackets, French cuffs, and elegant details like monograms or contrast stitching. Here too, we rely on Italian quality from brands like Canclini, Albini or Thomas Mason.
A custom shirt from The Sartorialist is more than just a garment - it's an expression of style, precision, and personality. And you can feel that in every seam.
Which accessories go with my wedding suit?
The right accessories complete your look - and often it's exactly these details that make the difference. We offer you a carefully curated selection of bow ties, neckties, pocket squares, cufflinks, vests, and leather belts that are perfectly coordinated with your suit choice.
Our style consultant helps you find the optimal combination - subtle or striking, classic or modern. We value high-quality materials that harmonize with your suit and round off your appearance. We're also happy to fulfill special requests such as color coordination with the bridal gown or decoration - for a well-thought-out, coherent look.
Do you also offer suits for best men or the father of the groom?
Yes, of course. We outfit not only the groom but also best men, fathers, and other wedding guests. Whether you want a uniform look or individual styles for each participant - we ensure stylish and coordinated outfits without overshadowing the groom.
Here too, we focus on custom work, fine fabrics, and personal consultation. Particularly popular: coordinated vests or matching ties for the best men - an elegant detail that makes an impression in photos and appearance.
Which cuts are currently trending for groom's suits?
Currently, we're seeing strong demand for slim-fit suits, vintage looks with double-breasted vests, light linen in natural tones as well as elegant classic three-piece suits with a modern twist. Also, green, burgundy, or beige suits are making a stylish comeback - depending on the wedding theme and season.
At The Sartorialist, we combine current trends with timeless elegance. Our goal is not to sell you the latest hype, but to design a look that will still impress in 20 years. For this, we take our time, listen - and bring in our craftsmanship to transform your style into fabric.
Can I still wear my custom suit after the wedding?
Yes - and that's exactly one of the many advantages of a custom-made wedding suit. At The Sartorialist Zurich, we design your suit not just for one day, but so that you can continue to wear it on other occasions: for business meetings, events, receptions, or elegant dinners.
We already consider in the consultation that your suit remains versatile. For example through:
classic colors like navy, anthracite, or dark green
subtle fabrics without conspicuous patterns
the option to wear vest or accessories separately
easily changeable details, e.g., buttons or lining
Our customers particularly appreciate that a Sartorialist suit is not a mass product, but a sustainable garment - high-quality crafted, robust, and timeless. The Italian fabrics from Loro Piana or Vitale Barberis remain shape-stable and elegant even after years, which means: You're not investing in a garment, but in a piece of style history that will accompany you for a long time.

What Makes a High-Quality Wedding Suit?
A high-quality wedding suit differs in many details from ordinary off-the-rack wear. It starts with the fabric: High-quality suits are made of fine wool, noble mohair, silk, or cashmere, not synthetic blends. The texture feels soft and elegant, the material breathes, holds its shape, and remains fresh and elegant even after hours of wear.
The next crucial factor is the cut. A good wedding suit should accentuate the figure, balance out small flaws, and feel like a second skin – without pressing or constricting. This can only be achieved through custom work. Details such as the lapel, the button placket, the hem finishing, the interior construction, and the lining material make a difference – they determine durability and appearance.
At The Sartorialist Zurich, you get exactly that: a wedding suit designed from the ground up for you. We only work with exclusive Italian mills, including Loro Piana, Vitale Barberis Canonico, Zegna, and Drago – fabrics that are internationally regarded as absolute top class.
Our team brings over 20 years of experience in custom tailoring and guides you through every step – from the consultation to the final fitting. With us, you don't get just any suit – but a wedding suit that stylishly accompanies you through your day and remains memorable.
How Does the Process of Creating a Custom Suit at The Sartorialist Work?
The journey to your custom suit at The Sartorialist begins with a personal consultation in our Zurich atelier. We consciously take time to get to know you – your style, your everyday life, your preferences, and the occasion for which you need the suit.
Consultation Style Finding
Together, we define which fit, look, and details suit you – classic, modern, Italian-elegant, or British-distinctive.Fabric Selection
You can choose from over 1,000 fine fabrics – including ultra-light summer fabrics, structured winter qualities, tweed, flannel, mohair, and cashmere. Our fabrics come from the best mills in Italy and are also used by luxury brands like Brioni, Kiton, or Tom Ford.Measurements Design
Next, we take your measurements precisely – focusing on posture, shoulder line, arm position, back shape, and much more. You choose collar style, lapel, pockets, buttons, lining, monogram, stitching – everything is tailored to you.Production Fitting
After about 3-5 weeks, your suit is ready for fitting. We make minor adjustments if needed at no extra cost.
A custom-made suit from The Sartorialist is not just clothing – it's your personal statement. You wear a unique piece that elevates your style to a new level – handcrafted, refined, authentic.
Which colors and fabrics are particularly trendy for wedding suits in 2025?
In 2025, we are experiencing a stylish diversity in wedding suits: Classic remains popular, but individual color and material choices are more in demand than ever. Particularly popular are:
Navy Royal Blue: Timeless classics that suit every groom.
Dark Green, Burgundy Brown: For autumn weddings or grooms who want to stand out fashionably.
Beige Light Gray: Perfect for outdoor summer weddings – modern, light, charming.
Black Midnight Blue (Tuxedo): For elegant evening weddings with a dress code.
For fabrics, the trend is towards lightness naturalness: High-quality blends of wool and linen, fine Super 130s or 150s wools, unstructured fabrics with a soft drape, yet enough form for festive occasions.
At The Sartorialist, we work with mills that not only provide the highest quality materials but are also leaders in design – such as Loro Piana or Vitale Barberis Canonico, who bring new colors and textures in line with current trends.
Together with you, we'll find the color and fabric that suits your skin type, wedding theme, and personal style – timeless, high-quality, and individual.
Why is a custom-made suit better than an off-the-rack suit?
A custom-made suit is more than just a garment – it's an expression of style, confidence, and standards. While an off-the-rack suit is produced in standardized sizes and often only fits with many compromises, a custom-made suit is tailored exactly to your body shape, posture, and desires.
The difference is visible – and noticeable:
Perfect Fit: No pulling, no pinching, no wrinkles.
Individual Design: You decide on fabric, cut, collar, lapels, pockets, lining, buttons, and more.
High-Quality Materials: At The Sartorialist, we exclusively use fabrics that are among the best in the world.
Uniqueness: You wear a one-of-a-kind piece – not a mass-produced product, but a piece of craftsmanship.
Longevity: Our suits last for years – even with regular wear.
Our customers consciously choose against fast fashion and opt for style with substance. And that's exactly what we offer: Custom work with character, Italian fabric art, and Swiss precision.
A custom-made suit is an investment – in yourself, in your appearance, and in quality that lasts.
