Q&A With Custom Clothing Makers, Pt 3


How is your service beneficial to tall women?

Rob Weber of Intellifit

Tall women typically find shopping for jeans - and pants in general - to be a challenge. Given a variety of body shapes, it's hard to find pants long enough and with the right fit through the waist and hips. We solve all three challenges for tall women, and it's been quite a hit.

Dawn Verbrigghe of Moi-Meme
    First and foremost, the pants will always be long enough and you won’t feel the need to tug at your too-short sleeves all the time. But our clothing is beneficial for tall women in less obvious ways as well. For example, the darts will start and end at the right place, the jacket length will be proportional for your body and the waistband on the dress will be at your natural waist – not pressing against your rib cage. Our customers range in height from petite to tall, though I believe we serve a larger percentage of tall women than you would expect to see if you walked down the street. I think the reasons for this are because being tall is part of the brand story (i.e. I started the business because I was too tall to wear off-the-rack pants) and also because there are so few options for professional attire for tall women. Our tall customers are some of the happiest women in the showroom because they are so pleased with the fit of our clothes.
