Custom suits · Chicago

A custom suit built for your body, your work, and your point of view.

A custom suit should solve more than size. It should account for posture, proportion, climate, travel, dress code, and how you want to carry yourself. Akram Hanna guides every decision from a private Michigan Avenue atelier, then refines the garment through an in-person fitting.

Custom Suits in Chicago

Designed with purpose

What makes a suit truly custom?

A custom suit begins with a defined wearer, not a standard size. Akram considers shoulder slope, stance, chest balance, sleeve pitch, trouser rise, and the way you move. The cloth and construction are selected around the garment’s purpose, while the styling choices are edited into one coherent composition.

Silhouette shaped around your proportions
Lapel, closure, pocket, vent, and button choices
Personal lining and monogram options

The Chicago wardrobe

Business tailoring that moves beyond the boardroom.

Chicago demands versatility. A serious suit may need to move from a morning meeting to a flight, dinner, or formal event. We help clients build garments that retain authority without feeling stiff, selecting weight, color, and structure around real routines rather than a generic trend.

Fit is a relationship

Your pattern becomes more useful over time.

The first garment establishes a detailed fit reference. At each future appointment, Akram can account for changes in your body, preference, and wardrobe. The result is a more consistent path to new suits, jackets, trousers, and shirts that work together.

Common questions

Timing depends on construction, cloth availability, fitting needs, and the time of year. Share your event or travel date at the first consultation so Akram can confirm a realistic schedule.
