Frequently asked questions

About Blandin & Delloye

Who is Blandin & Delloye?

A house specialising in made-to-measure clothing, founded in Paris in 2013. Our approach: go back to the principles of traditional tailoring (welcome, time devoted to each client, technical know-how) while adapting them to today's styles, with fair pricing.

What does made-to-measure mean at Blandin & Delloye?

Each piece is made from your measurements, your posture and your style choices. We do not start from an altered standard size: a pattern is drafted for you, then adjusted at the fitting.

What is the difference between made-to-measure and MTO (made-to-order)?

With made-to-measure, the pattern is built from your measurements and your body alterations. With MTO, we start from an existing size and cut and adjust the lengths (back, sleeves, legs). We offer MTO in particular for groomsmen's outfits.

What can I have made?

Two- and three-piece suits, jackets, trousers, waistcoats, overcoats and outerwear, shirts, ceremonial outfits and tuxedos, as well as a women's collection. We also offer customised shoes and accessories (ties, bow ties, pocket squares, cufflinks…).

Where are your stores?

Around thirty stores in France, Belgium, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Spain and Canada. The “See the stores nearest to me” button on the appointment page sorts them by distance.

Appointments and the in-store experience

Do I need an appointment?

Yes, we work by appointment only: each client is welcomed alone, in a private lounge, so there is enough time for measurements and advice.

What types of appointment are there?
  • Discovery workshop (30 min): an introduction to our approach, first ideas and an idea of prices.
  • Order (1 to 2 hours): choice of fabric and details, measurements, trying on fitting garments.
  • Fitting (15 to 30 min): checking the finished garment and any alterations.
  • Reorder: for returning clients, based on their existing pattern.
Is the discovery workshop free and without obligation?

Yes, it is free and there is no obligation to buy. It is recommended (especially for a wedding) but not compulsory: you can book an order appointment directly.

What happens during the discovery workshop?

Your advisor explains the steps, the customisation options and a first price range, then discusses your project with you (style of the event, colours, two or three pieces, accessories). Afterwards you receive customisation material by email to prepare your order.

Can I bring someone with me?

Yes. To keep our lounges comfortable, we recommend no more than 4 people with you.

Can I choose my advisor?

Yes, once you have chosen your appointment, you can choose an advisor or take the first available slot.

What should I bring to my appointment?

The shoes you will wear with the outfit (for the trouser length), a shirt if possible, and your inspiration photos.

How do I change or cancel an appointment?

Using the link in your confirmation email.

When is the best time to book?

Evenings and weekends fill up quickly: book well in advance, especially when a wedding is approaching.

The order process

How does the order appointment work?
  1. Body measurements.
  2. Trying on fitting garments to define the cut (slim, tailored, straight), the lengths and your body alterations (lower shoulder, arched posture…).
  3. Choice of fabric, then of every detail (lapels, pockets, lining, buttons, topstitching…).
How long does it take to make my outfit?

About 7 weeks for a suit, jacket, trousers or shirt in a fabric we have in stock, and 8 weeks for an overcoat. Allow 2 more weeks for a fabric ordered by the metre or a traditional construction. If you need it sooner, the express option (at extra cost) gets your suit, trousers or jacket ready in 2 to 3 weeks.

How many fittings should I plan for?

One fitting is required for a first suit, then a second one if needed, about one to two weeks later, to approve the alterations. For later orders, a fitting is recommended but not required.

Do you keep my measurements?

Yes. Your pattern and the alterations made are saved for your next orders, which helps us improve the result even further. The reorder appointment is shorter.

Can I order without coming back to the store?

Yes, on our website from April 2027. For a first order, only some accessories and gift cards are available online.

How long do I have to collect my order?

After the email telling you that your order has arrived, book your fitting within 3 weeks. The order must be collected within 3 months.

Fabrics and materials

Where do your fabrics come from?

From the great Italian mills (notably in the Biella region) and English mills (Huddersfield): Dormeuil, Loro Piana, Vitale Barberis Canonico, Drago, Holland & Sherry, Huddersfield, Dugdale, Carnet…

How many fabrics do you offer?

Several hundred references in stock, available straight away, and several thousand by the metre from our mills (about 2 weeks' extra lead time and a supplement).

How do I choose my fabric?

Your advisor guides you according to the use (business, wedding, everyday), the season, the colour, the look (smooth or mottled), the texture (flannel, end-on-end, birdseye…) and durability.

What does “Super 110's, 130's, 150's” mean?

It is the fineness of the wool fibre. The higher the number, the finer and silkier the fabric, but also the more delicate. For intensive use, a Super 110's to 130's is often the best compromise.

Which fabric weight should I choose for each season?
  • Summer: light high-twist wools (210 to 260 g), linen, linen, wool and silk blends, mesh.
  • All seasons: twills and high-twist wools (250 to 300 g).
  • Winter: flannels, tweeds, heavy twills (300 g and more); coats from 500 to 700 g.
What is a high-twist (fresco) wool?

An open weave that is very breathable and crease-resistant, ideal in hot weather.

Do you offer responsible fabrics?

Yes: certified collections (RWS wool, traceability), wools produced locally in Italy, and the reuse of our fabric offcuts. Our CSR commitments

Do you offer fabrics for tuxedos and evening wear?

Yes, dedicated collections (barathea, wool and silk, velvet) and satin finishes for the lapels.

Cut, construction and customisation

Which cuts are possible?

Slim, tailored, straight or even oversized, with jacket and trouser lengths to your taste. Your advisor also adapts the pattern to your posture.

Fused, half-canvas, full canvas: what is the difference?

It is the inner construction of the jacket.

  • Fused: already a very fine result, it is the most common construction in ready-to-wear.
  • Half-canvas and full canvas: a real tailoring canvas, on the upper part or the whole jacket, for a more natural drape, more comfort and a longer life.

These are options, not requirements.

Which details can I customise?

Almost every part of the suit can be customised, including: the lapels (notch, peak, shawl), the lapel width, the fastening (single or double-breasted), the pockets (patch, flap, ticket, barchetta), the vents, the lining (plain or patterned), contrasting thread and lapel buttonhole, topstitching, buttons, the under-collar felt, embroidery of your initials, etc. For the trousers: pleats, turn-ups, side adjusters, type of waistband and fastening, etc.

Can I have a message or my initials embroidered?

Yes, inside the jacket for example.

Do the options cost extra?

Most of them are included. A few are charged extra, for example a waistcoat back in the main fabric or some hand-made finishes.

Prices and payment

How much does a made-to-measure suit cost?
  • Two-piece suit: from €780 (most often €800 to €1,000).
  • Three-piece suit: from €900 (€1,000 to €1,500).
  • Jacket: from €400.
  • Trousers: from €200.
  • Overcoat: from €505.
  • Shirt: €140 to €200, with a discount for 2 and for 5.
  • Customised shoes: €350 to €450.
What makes the price vary?

Mainly the fabric category and the type of jacket construction, then a few options.

How does payment work?

A deposit of about 70% when you order, then the balance of about 30% on delivery. Payment by card, cheque or cash.

Can I pay in instalments?

Yes, in two: the deposit when you order, then the balance when you collect your garment.

Do you offer gift cards?

Yes, they are available online on our website.

Weddings

When should I start preparing my wedding suit?

Ideally 4 to 6 months before, to have the widest choice of fabrics. Allow about 4 to 8 weeks for making, then the fittings.

What if my weight changes before the wedding?

Alterations are still possible up to the wedding and are free, within the limit of the reserve of fabric available to carry them out.

Can I have an outfit that evolves during the day?

Yes. For example, the two-piece with a tie for the civil ceremony, the waistcoat and bow tie for dinner, then braces for the evening party.

How do I match my outfit to the wedding theme?

Your advisor can echo a wedding colour in the lining, the pocket square, the buttonhole or the waistcoat back. A colour echo is not required, but the chosen colour should suit the theme and style of the wedding. Your advisor will guide you on this.

Can my future spouse come along?

Yes. The discovery workshop also lets you talk about it without revealing the final outfit, for example.

Do you have an offer for groomsmen?

Yes, the groomsmen offer in MTO: you choose the fabric and details, the same for everyone. Each groomsman chooses his size, lengths are included. From:

  • Three-piece suit: €700.
  • Two-piece suit: €550.
  • Jacket only: €390.
  • Trousers only: €200.
  • Waistcoat only: €180.

Any further alterations are paid by the groomsmen.

Do you make wedding shirts and accessories?

Yes. The shirt is adapted to your accessories: a collar suited to a bow tie, French cuffs for cufflinks, a stud front for a tuxedo. We recommend a spare shirt for the big day.

Women's collection

Do you offer made-to-measure suits for women?

Yes, since 2024, after three years of work on the patterns.

  • Trousers: low, natural or high waist, straight or wide cuts.
  • Jackets: short or long.
  • A business line and a casual line.
How does the appointment work?

As for men: measurements, fitting garments, choice of fabric and details, then a fitting. Prices are similar for men and women and are shown on the Prices page, available from the menu.

Shirts

How is a made-to-measure shirt made?

As for the suit: measurements, trying on a fitting shirt and alterations, then choice of fabric, collar (Italian, French, reverse…), cuffs (straight, Neapolitan, French) and placket.

Which fabrics do you offer for shirts?

High-quality European cottons, most of them two-ply.

How long does a shirt take?

About 4 to 6 weeks.

Shoes and accessories

Do you offer shoes?

Where are your ties made?

In Italy (Calabria), in merino wool, cashmere or silk.

And the cufflinks?

Our cufflink collection is made in Italy.

Why is made-to-measure more responsible?

Almost all our pieces are made only to order, so without overproduction. Offcuts are reused and the pieces can be repaired. Our CSR commitments

After your order: alterations, guarantee, care

Are alterations included?

Yes. The alterations identified at the fitting are carried out within 7 to 15 days. You then have 45 days after the final payment to request alterations at no extra cost (except for weddings, where alterations are included up to the wedding, within the limit of the fabric reserve of the suits and pieces made).

What guarantee do you offer?

In addition to the legal guarantees (conformity and hidden defects, 2 years), we replace buttons that come off and worn seams, if the reference still exists.

Can my outfit be altered later (change of weight)?

Yes, depending on the seam allowances available.

Can I have a single piece remade, such as trousers?

Yes, it is possible to extend the life of a suit, subject to fabric availability.

How should I care for my suit?
  • Air it after each wear.
  • Use a wide hanger to preserve the shoulders (preferably the one supplied with your jacket or suit).
  • Brush it rather than dry-cleaning it too often.
  • Alternate with another suit.
  • Steam out creases, without insisting too much on the front of the jacket.
Can I get a refund on a made-to-measure piece?

The right of withdrawal does not apply to made-to-measure pieces. Cancellation is only possible if production has not started, with fees in proportion to the costs incurred.
