FAQ

Our Custom Made Garments require a minumum 3-4 months from time of Order.

Your cloth choice and International Holidays will influence whether you require up to 4 months.

We suggest coming in 5-6 months prior to your wedding to view your complete options.

If you choose to  buy one of our Ready to wear Suits many alterations can be performed to professinally fit your garment.  These more complex alterations will require 1-2 weeks.

We recommend you come in at least 6 months  prior to your wedding to organise your outfit for you and your groomsman.

No, but once we know what you require we would be happy to suggest a few places.

We stock an extensive selection of Ready to Wear suits, shirts and accessories.  Suits can be as little as $379, and for those who demand high quality Superfine Pure Wools Suits range Between $599 to $999.

We have dedicated men's clothiers and outfitters at your disposal and an in-house tailoring service to ensure a perfect solution for all your needs. For wedding consultations we ask that you arrange an appointment as we are in high demand for this service and the process requres a longer duration, and for bridal parties mulitple fitting rooms.

Our service has been around since 2003, and our longevity speaks to our commitment to excellence. With nearly two decades in the industry, we’ve honed our craft to ensure that each suit we provide meets the highest standards. Our extensive experience allows us to deliver exceptional quality and personalised service that truly stands out.

Investing in a high-quality suit is crucial because your wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event. Unlike everyday purchases, a wedding suit isn’t something you buy frequently, so it’s worth choosing a suit that stands out with superior craftsmanship. A well-made suit not only enhances your special day but also offers a better fit and feel. Cheaper materials often lead to bulkiness and discomfort, whereas a premium suit provides a more tailored, comfortable experience and a refined look. The quality of a suit impacts how it looks and feels, making it a significant part of your wedding investment. Why cut corners on something so important when you can enjoy a suit that truly complements your celebration?

Great question! Buying a suit offers the advantage of owning a high-quality garment that you can wear again and again. While hiring might be a convenient option, purchasing a suit means you have a timeless piece that fits perfectly and reflects your personal style. It's an investment in your wardrobe that goes beyond just your wedding day, allowing you to use it for future special occasions or events. Plus, having your own suit ensures that it’s always available when you need it, without the stress of returning it or dealing with last-minute changes.  Remember, a hired suit is only new once.

Spiro and the team at Formal Red were absolutely fantastic to work with. We required 5 suits for our wedding and they provided flexibility to either hire or buy which made it really easy for the groomsmen to choose either. The suits themselves were super comfortable and looked great as well.

As a bride, it was so amazing to know that the lads had had such an awesome experience choosing their suits with the expert guidance of formal red. We loved these suits and I can't thank them enough for the time and flexibility they gave us with people travelling in and out, but always delivering and so kindly! Thank you!

Groom and Groomsmen dressed by Formal Red. My partner and I briefly discussed our ideas with them, and they quickly came up with a look that matched. When they didn't have the colour we wanted to hire in their standard rotation, they went to some lengths to introduce the colour / style we wanted for hire. Very appreciative of this act. Staff were very interested to know what we were trying to convey in our dress, and provided options for consideration. Happy to have trusted them with my suit.

How long does it take to have the boys suits custom made?

How long before the wedding should the boys come in to get their suits? We want tailor-made at least for the groom, but maybe the groomsman too.

Formal Red

Congratulations! We have a few options availble for you.

Our  made in Europe offer is designed for those that want the best in European design and qaulity. Suits tailored in Europe require a minimum of 3 months

and the process requires multiple fittings in our store with further tailoring and adjustments done by us on site.

We also offer cheaper options for your groomsmen if you are constrained by budget. Still exceptional quality and beautifully tailored, however less options and made in Asia to reduce the costs. Time frame for this service is 6-8 weeks.

Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions.

How long before the wedding should the boys go suit shopping?

Formal Red

We suggest starting the process around12-14 weeks prior as this will give you more options. It will also give use plenty of time to bring in any stock that may have sold through.

The fitting for adjustments we can arrange closer to the wedding, that way we can factor in any changes in weight. Any additional tailoring usually takes around a week and idealy its best to bring your shoes in for this fitting.

I've gained weight since my formal wear was fitted. What are my options?

At what point in the custom made suit process can the measurements be re-taken? What other options would I have?

Formal Red

A custom made garment is a process that requires precise measurements and an experienced tailor. If we have taken your measurements then the next process is to draw up the pattern for your bespoke garments, begin the cutting process and book in the tailoring. At this stage it is to late for a re-measure, so the best approach in the instance of weight change is to make adjustments to your garments on your next fitting.

As we can not predict how much person will change in weight and how that will effect their measurements, we suggest that a weight change of no more than 4-5 kilograms. If you are planning on changing your size then best approach is to get measured as close to the cut off time as possible. Always check our website for lead times so you have maximum options available to you.
