For returning customers, your complete measurements are kept on file and will be available to you during the order process.  

Provide Off-The-Rack Sizes
VM Clothiers can take sizes of your existing off-the-rack clothes along with some additional information and tailor a perfectly fitting shirt.

If you have purchased a dress shirt, suit or jacket, and a pair of slacks, you will know all of the basic measurements we need to custom tailor a shirt. Dress shirts are usually sold in sizes based on collar and arm length (e.g. 15,32/33). Similarly, suits and blazers are sold in sizes (e.g. 40) based on the circumference around the chest and back.
Providing us with these three measurements (Collar, Arm Length, Jacket Size), the waist measurement for a pair of well-fitting slacks, and your height, will allow us to custom tailor your VM shirt.

Your VM shirts will fit only as well as the sizes/measurements they are based on. Please provide sizes of clothing that fit well.

Send Us Your Best Fitting Shirt
If you prefer not to take measurements, you can mail us your best fitting shirt. We will take the necessary measurements and return your shirt.

Schedule A Consultation
An in-person consultation with one of our master tailors is available in the Washington D.C. and New York metro areas. If you are located outside of these areas and have a group of individuals who are interested in making custom tailored suits or shirts, we can schedule a special visit to your city.
