1. What makes Clothing Science so unique?

A. The science of developing a personal image

The clothing industry speaks of fashion. Designers talk about their latest creations. Tailors talk about their "house style."  We, at Clothing Science, talk about your personal image, which is the essence of what clothing is about. Clothing Science is recognized, nationally, as a science that we have developed to help you create your own, personal image, utilizing what is current in fashion and timeless in style.

B. Attempts at mass customization

Tailors boast about the skill they have developed in taking measurements; yet they still discuss how many fittings they will require, before delivering a suit to you.  The industry has struggled for decades to hasten the arrival of mass customization, devising different mechanical methodologies to measure the body. They have made more than a few failed attempts, over the years. These attempts have culminated in a very expensive, body-scanning technology which has had very limited success, so far, because it has not been successful in making the suit fit.

C. Making mass customization work for you

At Clothing Science, we have made mass customization work for you. Our only requirement is a tape measure – preferably a fiberglass one, costing about $2.00. No special expertise in taking measurements is required. No fittings and re-fittings are necessary, and final alterations are generally a thing of the past. Our reasoning is that, contrary to industry and public perceptions, perfect measurements are a myth and are not captured directly from the human physique. Instead, they are extrapolated from the imperfect measurements of the body, which by nature, is always lacking in symmetry. Our fittings, designed to give the body the illusion of symmetry, are achieved through mathematical formulas, rather than from actual, physical try-ons. This unique system, “The Slilaty System of Mass Customization,” was developed and patented as software by a master tailor, mathematician and philosopher – Mr. Hal Slilaty.

2. How do I select a garment from a small piece of cloth?

Men, on an average, only end up liking 1 out of every 3 suits they buy off-the-rack.  The reasons for this are the limitations of ready-to-wear – its lack of selection and of professional guidance in making the right choice.Clothing Science assists you in choosing the right garment and developing your own personal style – making available to you an almost limitless selection of fabrics and styles. Our unique methodology of helping you select the right garment from a small piece of cloth is, in itself, worthy of a patent.

3. Who will take my measurements?

Our patented process in not based on the skill of the person taking the measurements and only requires that the measurements be taken in the prescribed manner. Once these measurements have been gathered, they are comprehensive; with them, we can produce suits, sport coats, pants, vest, shirts, topcoats and tuxedos. Our software will cross check the measurements for accuracy before applying them. We will not produce any garments for you unless we are confident in the measurements submitted. In certain geographical areas, if you prefer, we can send a representative to your office to take your measurements, but this not necessary to obtain a custom-fitted garment using the Slilaty System.

4. Will the suit fit?

5. Will I be happy?

We have been able to satisfy and thrill retailers and many other clients across the country.  We look forward to the opportunity of delighting you, too.  After all, we want you to tell your friends about us!

6. What is the expected delivery time?

Our delivery time of 5-6 weeks is comparable to the industry-wide standard. The only difference is that the suit we make you will fit perfectly; be marveled at and complimented, every time you wear it.

7. What about price?

Imagine having a wardrobe of (all) favorite suits, versus having only one or two you enjoy wearing, amongst others you own. If you purchase a dozen suits and you only enjoy wearing four of them, it is as though you paid three times as much per suit than you actually did. We are confident that our suits will end up being your favorites.
