MakisTailor — bespoke since 1960

Makis' Tailor

Our services

Everything we cut, sew and mend under one roof in Beirut — from full bespoke to a 24-hour alteration.

Bespoke

Full bespoke is the slow lane, and proudly so. We talk about how you live and where the suit will go, then take your measurements by hand and cut a pattern that exists for you alone. You choose the cloth from the roll; we build the suit around a proper canvas, shape it through fittings, and finish it by hand. When it's done, it's done for good — and if you're abroad, we ship it to you, tracked, wherever you are.

Made to measure

Made to measure starts from our proven patterns and adjusts every line to your body — a beautifully fitted suit, sooner. Design it in the online Suit Builder or at the atelier: cloth, cut, lapels, buttons, lining. Add your measurements once and we keep them on file for next time. Priced in US dollars, made in Beirut, delivered within 1–3 days anywhere in Lebanon and worldwide by tracked courier.

Wedding & tuxedo

Grooms have been getting married in our suits since 1960. We dress the groom, the fathers and the whole party — suits or tuxedos, matched or deliberately not — and coordinate cloths, colours and fittings so everyone arrives looking like they belong in the same photograph. Group orders live in one place on our site, each man with his own measurements. Order in good time before the wedding; we recommend 2–3 weeks.

Women's tailoring

Tailoring for women is not a sideline here; it's the same atelier, the same cutters, the same standards. Suits for the boardroom, jackets that actually fit the shoulder, trousers cut for your proportions rather than a size chart — in cloths chosen for drape as much as durability. Come in for a consultation, or design and order online with your saved measurements, delivered in 1–3 days across Lebanon.

Kids

First communions, weddings, school ceremonies — the occasions children remember start with clothes that don't itch, pull or slip. We cut suits and ceremony wear for boys and girls with the same patterns-and-pins care we give adults, in cloths that survive a long day and a longer photo session. Measure at home with our guide, save a profile for each child, and reorder as they grow.

Shirts

A tailored shirt is the quiet half of a good suit. Choose your collar, cuffs, placket, pocket and cloth; add a monogram if you like. We cut to your measurements and keep them on file, so reordering five in different cloths takes two minutes. Shirts are made in Beirut and delivered in 1–3 days across Lebanon — or shipped worldwide alongside your suit.

Uniforms & corporate

Hotels, restaurants, banks, clinics, crews: a uniform is your brand walking around, and it should fit every person wearing it. We tailor work uniforms and corporate wardrobes to your specification, embroider your logo in-house, and size each employee properly — at the atelier or on site. Ask for a quote through the site; repeat orders reuse your saved sizes, and deliveries arrive on schedule, batch after batch.

Alterations & 24-hour express

Sleeves, waists, hems, linings, zips; the suit you inherited, the dress that almost fits, the trousers that fit last year. If it has a seam, we can probably improve it — whether or not we made it. Drop in, or book an alteration online. When it truly can't wait, our 24-hour express service takes garments in before To be confirmed and has them ready the next day.

Embroidery

Embroidery is how a garment says whose it is. We stitch monograms on shirt cuffs and jacket linings, names inside wedding jackets, and full logos across uniform batches — in-house, on our own machines and by hand where it matters. Bring us your garment or add embroidery to any order; on corporate work, we keep your logo digitised and thread-matched so every batch comes out identical.
