Custom Suiting at BLVDier Chicago

March 15, 2017

Today’s blog post is all about custom suiting and our favorite Chicago Tailor. I’m sure when you think about having a custom suit made you automatically assume that the process is just too extravagant and far too expensive. I mean, that was surely our assumption. Until we met Zach Uttich owner of BLVDier Chicago, a custom clothier located in Chicago’s Fulton Market District. His prices are reasonable and the experience is superb.

The studio itself is in the West Loop’s trendy Fulton Market district, surrounded by some of Chicago’s most exciting restaurants and businesses. The industrious minimalist feel is reflected in the aesthetic of the shop, its simplicity automatically putting the consumer at ease. Think white, bright and clean. Zach cultivates a stress free one on one shopping experience from the moment you walk through the door. You are greeted with a smile and the offer of a beverage (we went with whiskey as it seemed most appropriate) as Frankie Valli croons from above, and then begin what feels like a casual chat.

How much or how little you know about suiting is irrelevant when you visit BLVDier, as you will be guided patiently throughout the process. Masterfully Zach will move you step by step as you design your dream garment. He works in such a way that at no point and time will you feel out of sorts or overwhelmed. Mostly, you will walk away feeling like you’ve made a new friend. Of course, you’ll also be feeling mighty good about yourself when the compliments start rolling in about how dapper you look.

It is without question that we recommend suiting at BLVDier. If you’re hesitant about winging the process, we’re written out some helpful tips that will help put your mind at ease. If you live with Reside at our 945 W. Fulton Market property, you’re only a hop, skip and a jump away from what we consider one of the best clothing shops in the city of Chicago.
