Oscar Hunt is about the relationship between a tailor and a client.
We work with you to help create the perfect suit or shirt for any given occasion.
We have created an environment where the groom and his groomsmen can come together and enjoy a few drinks while our tailor guides you through the steps to create your ultimate wedding suits. From traditional dinner suits to modern cut, single-button suits with peak lapels, we can design suits to cater to varying styles.
For a wedding party of 4-6, this takes an hour and a half for your first appointment.
As part of the Oscar Hunt experience, our team can mix you up anything from a scotch, straight up, to one of our signature cocktails. We can also arrange food service from one of the 25 restaurants on Hardware Lane.
Timing
To provide a comfortable amount of time for construction and completion, we recommend that the first appointment takes place six to eight weeks before the wedding date. This is followed by a second fitting four weeks later where the suits are perfected.
Our wool is sourced from Australia. We change our fabrics seasonally to make sure we have a suitable range for our clients.
