BE FITTED FOR A TAILOR-MADE GARMENT


A


made-to-measure suit or shirt is surely on everybody’s dream gift list – and what could be more opulent a location in which to


experience the luxury of a made-to- measure garment than the elegant Row-G studio in Milpark, Johannesburg? Chief Creative Officer Rahim Rawjee adds a bit of rock ’n roll to everything he touches, including the interiors of this glamorous space, complete with floor- to-ceiling mirrors, black enamel ceilings and plush carpets. Suited hosts welcome visitors and escort them to the top floor of the premises, where everything from Champagne to freshly squeezed fruit juice can be made to order. Every step of the Row G experience is


touched with sophistication – truly the stuff Tom Ford movies are made of. Rahim says there’s no limit to the


level of bespoke services that can be commissioned for someone. “We can even fly them in by chopper, if that will add to the experience,” he says. Usually the gifting process starts with a handcrafted letter and piece of cloth that’s delivered to the lucky gift recipient. The process then unfolds according to his or her needs and desires (yes, Row G also tailor-makes for ladies). The cloth is simply a “place-holder” and when the client arrives at the studio for their first consultation, they can select from some of the best materials in the world to create their own look. Then comes the choice of a style,


the personal fitting, the follow-up appointment and, finally, the reveal. Today, true luxury is about


personalisation, says Rahim. You can’t buy experiences or time – and that’s why a bespoke gift is so precious. Tel: 011 482 1980. Visit: www.row-g.com
