Long story below, but TL;DR: these guys are great!…read more It's a rough market out there for off-the-rack women's formalwear, unless you really like sweating it out in polyester. I have wanted a suit for a really long time, but... well. I have DDDs, am generally midsize everywhere else (12-14 size waist) and I'm 5'1" on a good day. Even women's blazers don't fit me. Slacks? Forget about it. I knew that getting custom suit locally was the only way to go--I couldn't find any reviews or pictures of Bunbury's work with women's suiting, but I figured it couldn't hurt to make an appointment. I had never owned or worn a suit before, so I had very little knowledge about what would work for me. Fortunately, at the first fitting, Rohit spent a full two hours patiently explaining different suit cuts, making recommendations on style and fit, and answering my many, many questions. Both the suit coat and waistcoat were absolutely PERFECT at the first fitting, which felt truly insane to me given my lifelong struggles with blazers. We ended up going through a few rounds of alterations on the shirt and pants, in no small part because of my own inexperience--I was discovering my own preferences for suiting as we worked through different options, and a lot of what I want out of a suit was a lot more in line with the conventions of men's formal suiting than women's--but Ro & co. had an insane level of patience and kept reworking everything until it was perfect. And as a total outsider to men's fashion, I never felt anything but safe, welcomed and respected in the Bunbury offices. Oh yeah, and the finished suit is amazing. Comfortable in all kinds of weather, a million hidden pockets, excellent range of motion... I've played a round of capoeira in the full getup without straining a single seam. By all accounts Bunbury is extremely on point with deadlines and alterations tend to be reliably completed within a week. In my case, the owners were hit with a truly Shakespearean tidal wave of once-in-a-lifetime delays beyond their control, and I was happy to slow down our alterations schedule in favor of their wedding clients because I didn't have any pressing deadlines to meet. As a thank-you, Bunbury ended up providing several tailored shirts for free, to the point where I'm honestly a little concerned that I'm tanking their bottom line. I have absolutely made out like a bandit from this experience. And even though I don't really attend formal events often enough to warrant it, I'm making room in my budget for their three for two suit deal in the future.

I have been a customer of Bunbury Custom Clothing for two years and what follows is my honest…read moreassessment of this business: Rajesh Bulchandani has the highest level of honesty and integrity in a person that I have ever met in my seventy five years on this earth. This is not an exaggeration - I have come to know that if Raj promises something - it will be done! This company provides the finest British and Italian wool and cotton fabrics for custom clothing available in the bespoke and made-to-measure business. Their full canvas suits rival some of the best suits you can buy in the United States. I am very difficult to please and expect perfection, and have found this company to make the clothing experience enjoyable - if Raj can please me - he can please anyone. I have tried other tailors and custom clothing companies in the Raleigh area, and no one comes close to what Raj has done for me. Raj has many years of experience in taking measurements and sending these measurements to his tailors in Hong Kong and China along with the materials from the finest British and Italian material manufacturers which he procures for the customer. When the suit is complete, if there are any adjustments necessary, Raj offers lifetime alterations for any reason no matter what. If you are looking for the finest clothing money can buy at a reasonable price from a truly honest person - don't waste you time looking elsewhere - I recommend this company and only this company. Develop a relationship with Bunbury Custom Clothing, give them a try, and you will not be disappointed. If you go with Burbury Custom Clothing, you are choosing the best custom clothing service in all of North Carolina and in the entire Mid-Atlantic Region of the USA.

A staff person approached after about 5 minutes and I asked how the boot display was organized and gave her a couple of boots I wanted to try on and gave her my size range. She returned with the same boots and said I should try them on to see how they work before she pulled the matching boot from the back. I requested the second boot and she really wanted me to try just one, rather than arguing about getting both boots, we left without spending money at this store. Weekend staff is not engaged, may be different during the week but I would get my hopes up for good service.

Rob Butler knows clothing having worked in this area his entire adult life - he is in his fifties…read more- so over thirty years of experience. He is an alumnus of UNC-CH and knows the men's clothing market in the Triangle area - i.e. Alexander Julian Chapel Hill. He sells custom suits in Raleigh, Chapel Hill, Durham, Greensboro, and Charlotte to professionals. I have used other made-to-measure clothing companies, but this guy is the BEST ! I am difficult to please and difficult to fit in suits. Rob asked me to bring a coat and pants that I thought fitted me to his shop. He took my measurements - which takes over an hour of tedious work - he rechecked all of his measurements - he asked me a lot of questions - and I decided on a full-canvas suit. He said it would take about six weeks and was made in Malaysia- the material is made in Italy. The suit only took five weeks. I tried on the suit, and it fitted me perfectly - no alterations - the suit was breathtaking and was comfortable when standing, moving around, or sitting. This guy is the best I have seen in the Raleigh area. I highly recommend him. I am a perfectionist, and if he can please me, you will also be satisfied. He is honest, knowledgeable, and knows his craft. If you are hard to fit and have had bad experiences in the past - you should try him. I think you will be as satisfied as I am with his work. He also sells custom dress shirts, Italian ties, cashmere and wool sweaters, and find men's socks/hosiery. If you questions about men's clothing, he knows the answer. Also, his prices are less than his competitors and much better service. In my opinion, he is the pinnacle of fine custom clothing in the Triangle. I highly recommend him !
