Designing W/ Knot Standard At Home
As mentioned previously in this article, the blazer, Oxford shirt and white pants were designed via Knot Standard’s Virtual Studio. Fabrics, intricate detailing like buttonhole threads color and pocket style are just a small glimpse of the options that are available in the designing process.
There are hundreds of fabrics to choose from for suiting through shirts, so be sure to take your time and enjoy the process. With a specialized photographic system, the garments you design in the Virtual Studio appear the way the will in person (major plus).
You’ll need to create your measurement profile, if you haven’t been to a showroom to get measured. You can try it yourself, but, it’s best to have friend assist with the process for accuracy. After you’ve designed everything, added your measurement profile and submitted your order — your package will arrive in 4 weeks.
Included in each package is info on alterations & garment replacement. Ordering a suit, blazer or coat — those garments will come hung within a Knot Standard garment bag. Other items like shirts, ties & pants are wrapped in tissue paper with a KS sealed sticked.
Overall, the home designing process is painless and quite fun, however; the limitations are:
- not all fabrics in the Knot Standard collection are available (you’ll need to visit the showroom)
- Not all detail design options are available, but, the majority are a part of the Virtual Studio
