More than 30 years ago, custom-clothing specialist M. Kenny began to build his business, operating on the belief that his clients deserved elegant clothes, all fit to order. Today, his professional couturiers, each boasting years of experience, follow his lead by sizing up customers with more than 28 precise measurements and a questionnaire officiated by a magic 8 ball. Next, M. Kenny’s master tailors in Hong Kong translate the sizings into masterpieces of expertly fitted cloth that flatter and complement each wearer’s form.

Male clients cut sharp, striking figures in suits culled from fabric merchants such as Ermenegildo Zegna or Holland & Sherry, or they can bask in the luxuriousness of dress shirts made with 30 different collar styles and sleek, form-fitting body cuts. Women don sophisticated ladies’ professional wear fashioned from a wealth of customization options, including six different styles of skirts and 12 varieties of shirt monograms and collars.

Industrie Denim's founder and veteran denim purveyor, Mark Werts, has partnered with Levi Strauss to present customers with clothing from more than 80 denim design houses from around the world. Each location is decorated with industrial elements sourced from local junkyards and flea markets and also hosts a self-styled jean-ius. Jean-iuses stay abreast of the latest style trends and can assist shoppers in finding pants that flatter figures ranging from pear- to star-fruit-shaped. Guests can admire the jean-ius's handiwork in one of the store's booty cams, which are located in select dressing rooms. In-house tailors guide their needles around not-quite-right hems and waistlines, adding a personalized touch to each pair of impeccably fitted trousers.
