Lydia is my Tailor and she it's very good at what she does. I also like the personal of details where she remembers who you are very social. it makes us more of a fun experience for going to the Tailor just to get fitted. Experience is top-notch and luxurious. The ambience is very stoke modern and a bit exclusive. There is no signage on the building to get to the location. It's almost like going to a clandestine office. The storefront it's very clean and they have clothing on display along with a decanter full of scotch. Gives off very cool vibes. There's a pool table on the back. The view is unexpectedly beautiful. Lydia will run through the options to pick up materials styles types of cuts. Want to get measured and get your final product they keep these measurements on file so if you want to order more, we just call in and get it to you. Should I treat myself? You ask.... Yes you should. Along with a luxury experience to get a high-quality product that will last you a long time.

She offered us refreshments, showed us several fabrics and educated us on pricing and availability. We considered the options shown and scheduled an appointment a week or so later to place an order. Lydia gave us good customer service, but she was not available the morning we were scheduled and we were assigned Burgan. Burgan was very professional and a big help in selecting the finishes and fitting. We enjoyed working with Burgan, and placed the order. We have ordered several custom suits from different companies. We really appreciate the vast selection of high quality fabrics and professionalism of the staff at Enzo. They have custom suits available as low as about $600 but on average the suits run about $1,200 and up. The suits are well worth the splurge. The aesthetic of the location is sleek and modern. The experience feels elevated and is what you want when you're spending over a thousand dollars for a suit. Note to management it would be appreciated if clients are consistently offered water or a beverage during every visit. I highly recommend this location. We are looking forward to receiving the new suit. I will update this review once we go through the final fitting. TIP: There is a $100 referral discount which is a nice incentive to spread the word.

I should have known what I was getting in to when I was asked twice to write a review before even getting my card charged for the rental, it was a precursor to how everything else went as if you have to beg for reviews your likely getting some poor ones. My main gripe with them is we went in for a fitting, the first guy measuring couldn't have cared less. When coming in to try on the rental pants were noticeably short, was told no problem was given a time to come back, I should have tried on again as the pins were still in them and the length was awful, my money is on the tailor never got around to it. Once actually in the event you realize it doesn't matter if it was thrifted or custom tailored if you're with good people you'll have fun.

I realize now why I went to Suitsupply - it helped me justify spending $5k or more on a suit. I…read moretruly hoped that I could pay less for a suit and have similar quality. However, Suitsupply is basically the Taco Bell of men's clothing. It's not bad but it certainly is not good. It's a factory for tons of young people to go in and get a decent suit with adequate materials, but where it matters most, they fall well short. The average person wearing a suit from Suitsupply will look silly - not like a clown but like they just bought their first suit. I bet their tailor is good and it appeared she was working really hard - but it's not the tailor that takes the measurement, it's the salesperson. My salesperson clearly was not interested in building a relationship, rather, it's getting customers in and getting them out - like a factory, like Taco Bell. The subtle nuances in suit wear and fine clothing make all the difference in the world and it's the subtle nuances they clearly miss, and that's unfortunate. I will provide two images that I asked my salesperson to snap (right after he suggested the fit looked great) and that was the obvious verticle wrinkle along my spine. Sadly, it had to be me to ask to have an image snapped. When I saw it looked terrible right after he was wanting to pack up my suit and send me on my way, it was clear - they aren't looking for clients, they are looking for customers - like Taco Bell. Get people in, and get people out - does not matter how they look - it's a factory - like Taco Bell. On the rare occasion someone tells me a positive story about Suitsupply - I'll presume they wear suits that fit them like a kid in junior high school. Again, I bet their tailor is actually ok but it's salespeople that are the conduit to a good fit and clearly, it does not matter to them. The spine bunching and the uneven cuff was not the fault of the tailor - it was the fault of the bar soap sliver that is marked by the salesperson to inform the tailor of what they are to do to make it fit just right. I left with my suit today thinking that if I just bought it right off the rack without any adjustments, I would have been told it "looks great" as the salesperson took no ownership of my experience or the fit. My suit sleeves are at least 2 inches too long but with working button holes, nothing can be done. It goes half way down my hands and again, the salesperson did not point it out and did not care. So if you want to blend in and look like everyone else, look sloppy - buy their adequate quality suits that aren't tailored to fit. When I dress up, I want to stand out - no different than when I want a great meal, I do not go to Taco Bell. So now, I will go back to Brioni, Ermenegildo Zegna, Stefanno Ricci and be happy to have real professionals craft me a beautiful suit that is expertly crafted and tailored and I will never again consider going cheap and getting a Taco Bell suit when I want to look first class and stand out in a crowd.

Sim, I just got back from our honeymoon and I wanted to say Thank You again for all your help. The tuxedo looked incredible! For review-readers, I'm a skeptic buyer. I searched the market in DC pretty thoroughly by visiting 3 other popular bespoke tailors in the area. I asked them all for a custom 3-piece tuxedo with shirt/tie in a short deadline (1.5 months). With regard to design-input, options, presentation/customer service, authenticity, and cost in my opinion Brimble & Clark is your best bet in DC. Also, not once did Sim try to up-sell or chase my other groomsmen's suits. The suit looked and fitted stunningly, and to top it off- I left feeling like I learned a few things. Thanks again Sim.

Best purchasing experience I've ever had, by far. Sim and his team are truly passionate about the service they provide. My session started with questions about my lifestyle and needs first, then suggestions about which fabrics and styles would help me best achieve my goals. It was a really fun time, too. COVID had me cooped up in my apartment for a while, and being at Brimble & Clark made me feel like I was catching up with an old friend and just having a good time! I never once felt that snobby seller vibes that I sometimes experience at other high-end luxury stores. It felt like we were just a couple of friends talking about life. I can't wait to see my clothes at the next fitting! Thank you, Sim! Best in the game. read more

I bought my wedding tuxedo from Brimble and Clark and everything was exceptional from the get go. I wanted a "James Bond" look and Brimble and Clark did that for me! I looked everywhere from big department stores to Hugo Boss, but none of the suits were good enough and were far more expensive. Everyone at the wedding kept commenting on how great the suit looked. Since then, I have bought Brimble and Clark suits for work, every day suits, and for interviews. Brimble and Clark pays attention to detail, caters to your needs while offering great advice, and is extremely responsive. I would recommend this to anyone looking for the perfect suit. read more

I've worked with several clothiers locally and in New York and Sim and the Brimble & Clark team were amazing to work with. I am very happy with the suit, tie and shirt I purchased. It's easy to schedule fittings and sizings, I had a ton of options for styles and fabrics, and I received solid advice on how to wear and pair the various things I looked at.

I was seeking a custom tuxedo to match the wedding experience my wife and I were planning, and I've only rented tuxedos before. I met Brett at the shop and immediately felt like I was being taken care of through his insightful questions, great candor, honest guidance, and exemplary expertise. Honestly, I came in a bit green to the experience and Brett really took the time to educate me without any impatience, sharing his depth of knowledge to guide me toward the finest dress clothes I've ever owned in my time. I ended up with two custom tuxedo outfits at a competitive price, an outfit change before my dinner reception that had my friends questioning who I was and how I managed to look so sharp. I received countless compliments and kind words from many for how I showed up, and how polished I looked. We had a few small challenges that ran to the wire, as it can happen. It was how Brett resolved them and the certainty by which he delivered on my needs which was truly exemplary. He made sure everything fit and worked perfectly, personally dropped my clothes off at my house, and had one set shipped to me the day before the wedding. He came through, and made it easy for me to trust that he would. I'll be a customer of the Tailored Man for a long time, and alas I won't be able to revert back to a standard look easily now that I've been spoiled by this quality and experience. I'm happy to have a tailor now, and want to thank Brett always for helping me show up at my best, on my best day.

I've tried made-to-measure programs all over the country--from California to New York--and I can…read morehonestly say this is the best made-to-measure suit I've ever had made. What sets this experience apart is that you're not working with someone who is simply selling suits. You're working with someone who genuinely understands classic menswear, tailoring, and proportion, and who has an excellent tailor on the premises. That combination is incredibly rare. In my experience, many made-to-measure programs are primarily sales-driven. The person taking your measurements may be very personable, but often doesn't have a deep understanding of garment construction, fit, or how to modify a pattern to achieve a specific look. This experience was completely different. Every detail was discussed thoughtfully, and there was never any hesitation when I wanted to customize the pattern. Whether it was the lapel shape, shoulder expression, button stance, sleeve pitch, trouser cut, or other details, every request was taken seriously and executed exactly as I envisioned. I'm probably one of the pickiest clients anyone could have when it comes to tailoring. I have extremely high expectations for fit, and I've even had made-to-measure programs tell me they couldn't produce the result I was looking for because my standards were beyond what they felt comfortable promising. This time, the suit arrived exactly as I wanted it. Remarkably, I didn't need a single alteration. That has never happened to me before. Even if price weren't part of the equation, I would still consider this the best suit I've had made through any made-to-measure program. The level of craftsmanship, attention to detail, willingness to customize, and overall knowledge of menswear is exceptional. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about making the best possible garment--not just making a sale--I recommend him without hesitation. I'll absolutely be back for future commissions.

I've personally purchased three suits with matching waistcoats and several dress shirts, and every single piece has been exceptional in both quality and fit. And then there's the hospitality. Every time I stop by, I'm offered a drink--coffee, water, even a cocktail (he's got an excellent whisky selection). On Saturdays, he hosts an open house with fruit and pastries, which makes the shop feel more like a welcoming community than a store. I've even dropped in unannounced just to say hi, and Curtis always greets me like an old friend. On top of all that, Suitability carries top-tier accessories--pocket squares, cufflinks, colognes, wallets. He's also the only local spot that carries Secrid wallets. I once had my eye on a specific style he didn't have in stock, and Curtis went the extra mile--literally--to track it down at a trade show and secure the *last one available*. If you're even thinking about upgrading your wardrobe, do yourself a favor and visit Suitability. It's not just shopping--it's an experience.
