For a low-tech profession like tailoring, Mr. Kelly is surprisingly computer-savvy: each customer’s body dimensions and taste preferences for Custom shirts, Custom Suits, Blazers, Tuxedos, Sports Jacket or Top coats are listed in his system, along with detailed records of all past purchases and numerous photos of each customer . Process for custom shirts & custom suits is simple : Mr. Kelly takes 12 to 14 measurements for custom shirts & 35 for the custom suits. All details for custom shirts and custom suits are noted down to the size of the watch the customer wear.
Process for custom shirts and suits is same as ‘benchmade’, but that takes three to four fittings; we generally do it in one. And custom suits are delivered to the customers in four weeks.

Mr. Kelly carries only five fabric brands: Zegna, Dormeuil, Loro Piana, Holland and Sherry and his own creationg N. J Ramchandani. “I’am not a cloth merchant’s son,” he explains with no apologies. “I’m not a tailor; I can’t sew a button. But I’m a businessman who, by shipping suit and shirt fabrics directly to Hong Kong, can offer tremendous duty-free savings to my customers. My price is generally 40% because the cloth is duty-free.”
Still, although he’s highly competitive on price, Mr. Kelly acknowledges that custom shirt and suit business today is all about luxury and status. “We have a fabric that’s more than $2000 a yard: it’s 80% cashmere, 20% vicuna and only 300 suits a year are created from it worldwide. I sold five of these suits to one customer: it was $9,000 per suit but $7,000 was the fabric ($2,215 a yard but I paid $ 1,800 shipped to Hong Kong). Read more >>
Needless to say, he was an established customer for suits or I never would have risked it.” Interestingly, despite his assortment of 3500 fabric swatches, Mr. Kelly acknowledges that the top three sellers for tailored custom suits are solid Navy, followed by Charcoal, followed by black. (Navy outsells charcoal three to one.) In fancies, it’s a grey pinstripe custom suit, blue pinstripe custom suit, grey chalkstripe custom suit, grey glen paid custom suit, blue glen paid custom suit in that order. In dress shirts, solid white dress shirt outsells solid blue dress shirt (All shades combined ) two to one and 15% of the business is French cuffs -KAG Read more >>
