Dress Code Custom

Seed Round in 2012
Dress Code is a custom menswear brand — but we don’t operate a single storefront. Instead, our team of Style Consultants meet individually with each New Member to take measurements and customize each order. We’ve never built the same suit twice. Our business model not only provides an enhanced shopping experience, but it also eliminates the top 3 costs of retail: storefronts, inventory and overhead. This means that we’re able to cover a larger geography than a storefront, but do it at fraction of the cost. Sound different? That’s by design. Since everyone is unique, we like to learn about your personal style and current wardrobe before we start a custom product. Our business model allows us to offer a much more personalized experience that we bring straight to you. It also allows us to eliminate excessive inventory and storefront costs, so your dollar goes into quality suit components instead of a store’s square footage.
