Alterations and Recut

All of our custom-made suits are the traditional full canvas with four open working buttonholes in each sleeve. These are qualities you rarely see in the market of suits these days.
Sabatini™ has been creating custom-made suits for men and women since 1973 in the Washington Metropolitan Area.
You never know a perfect fit until you know your body type and position. Please look at this very carefully to determine your body type.
For example, we all know former President Trump is like Figure F, and his head was forward three inches, and no one advised him of this. The result was a poorly dressed man in ready-made suits, with the suits remaining open from the front because of his stomach and gathering fabric from the back. You would see the President always trying to close his jacket.
President Biden has a left shoulder about 3/4 inch lower than the right shoulder, causing his jacket to be slightly open so you can see more of his shirt on the left side than the right side. Also, the left sleeve should be shorter than the right by about 1/2 inch.
This kind of information about body type should be carefully studied by the Executive Office staff.
No matter how difficult your physique, Sabatini™ will make your suit good and make it fit.
Only at Sabatini™ can you find the perfect fit guaranteed, and Sabatini™ can replace and change any damaged part on your suit and charge only for the damaged part.

Custom-Made Suits

Elegance does not depend on luxurious ornamentation and finery but on the perfection of the cut and fit. Sabatini™ custom-made suits are individually crafted from the finest English and Italian fabrics, including Mongolian cashmere.

Heavy-Set Men

Executive style suits in Washington, DC, for heavy-set men should be cut generously. Accentuate vertical lines. Choose chalk stripes and herringbones over plaids and solids. Shirt collars should not be round. Select collars with points that lead away from the face at a slight angle, but never a spread collar.

Tall Men

Horizontal lines should be accentuated to stress breadth. Fabrics should be unfinished worsteds, tweeds, and other bulky materials. The jacket should be worn on the long side with a loose waist and extra width in the shoulders. Trousers should always be cuffed.

International Styles and Cuts

We create custom-made, hand-stitched executive suits. Please call for a quote.

The English Style

The English style seems to be the most popular of all the schools of suit fashion, showing careful attention to detail. The jacket lies close to the body and is marked at the waist. The shoulders are soft, have a little padding, and are not particularly large. The armholes are usually cut quite high. The English suit includes two side vents, even in dress suits. The double-breasted jacket is more popular in England than in America, where they prefer a two or three-button single-breasted version, and the trousers usually have two pleats with the pockets placed along the seams.

The Italian

Italians prefer the shoulder to be quite high, padded, and to sag just a bit. The jacket clings a bit more tightly to the body and has a rather narrow armhole. The jackets generally have pockets without flaps and are without vents in the back. In Italy, single or double vents are often limited to sports jackets. The Italian pants have diagonally cut pockets and a low waist, probably because Italians do not favor wearing suspenders or vests with their close-fitted suit jackets.

In America

In America, the shoulder is more naturally soft, with an even slope and with little or no padding. Jackets almost always have three buttons, with only the center button fastened. The armholes are wider than those of English executive suits, thus providing more comfort and adaptability to different physiques. The pockets of the jacket have flaps, and the back has only one vent. The pants usually have no pleats, and the fit down the leg is close.

The French

The French school comes from the style begun in the 1960s by Pierre Cardin, who designed a jacket with high shoulders and a little visible roll in the sleeve head. This jacket is flared and very long, popular in England in the first half of the 20th century. Cardin pants were bell-bottomed and without pleats.

The German

German suits have always been designed for comfort and durability. The shoulder of the jacket is low and natural. The chest is prominent, providing enough room on the inside for pockets to hold wallets, notebooks, pens, etc. The pants’ crotch and waist are low.

The Sabatini™ Style

The Sabatini™ executive style suits in Washington, DC, draw from the best features of all these styles. Sabatini™ suggests that men should concentrate on the executive single-breasted, two-button style suit with a notched lapel and a medium fitted waist.
The armhole should be 3/4" deeper than the English style for comfort. Opt for a medium fit shoulder. The collar of the jacket should lie close to the neck, and the lapel should fit the contours of the chest. Make sure the inside canvas is of medium weight; if the canvas is too heavy, your jacket will be stiff. On the other hand, a too-light canvas will not work in the heat and humidity of summer. Your jacket will have no body and will appear wrinkled and worn.
