Spotlight on V and J Menswear in Melbourne

Bespoke, customised tailoring, one on one personal service....... 

These are terms which have historically been reserved for the wealthy, distringuished type. Well times have changed. If you follow any type of menswear on social media, you may see advertisements for bespoke, custom tailor made designers such as V and J Menswear. This personal style suitmaking has made a come back. You won't  find suit makers like V and J Menswear in fashion malls, or on any golden mile. They are usually tucked away and hidden down laneways of Melbourne or modestly set up on a higher level of an old building through out the city. 

V and J menswear are no different. Hidden on level 3 of Carlow House on Flinders Lane  in Melbourne, V and J Menswear rely mainly on word of mouth and repeat business resulting from their very professional and personlised friendly service. And they have been fairly successful with this model.

I first met Carl and Rick - owners and designers of V and J Menswear when I was searching for menswear clothes to pull for a photo shoot. Not only did I find the guys very welcoming and obliging, but watching them work with customers, you get a sense of a love for what they do - particularly the face to face customer side of their jobs. It seemed as though customers did not want to leave the place and could sit there for hours chatting away with the guys. And if you did wish to do that, you would be offered a glass of scotch or a picolo coffee.

Whether it's buying clothes off the rack, being measured up for a custom made suit or even finding a suit in their store which they will adjust to fit you perfectly V and J Menswear are, in my opinion, the epitome of service.

V and J Menswear can help you with formal wear for your wedding, Melbourne Spring racing, or if you are just looking for a smart casual but sharp look, V and J Menswear have them. You will definately leave the store feeling very pleased with your experience.
