The Bespoke Tailor

Engage Team • May 15, 2022
A man in a suit is being measured by a tailor.

A true artisan, Paolo Martorano is Bespoke. This New York native has his offices and showroom on West 57th street. But you will need to call ahead for an appointment as he may be jetting off for fit- tings in Palm Beach or any other undisclosed location of his clients choosing.

Before opening his own doors at such a young age (in his late 20’s) Paolo worked exclusively in the Bespoke category. He spent
nearly seven years at Paul Stuart as the senior cus
tom clothing assistant, then ultimately the Director of Bespoke made-to-measure for America at Dunhill.

In 2017, he took the leap and launched his own label. Paolo Mar- torano Bespoke. Bespoke tailoring is fast becoming a must-have for the contemporary man of means. They are embracing the heritage of Savile Row while paying homage to the ease of the Italian titans. Paolo comes from a long family heritage in fine tailoring, four gen- erations deep on his fathers side.

Today, Paolo Martorano Bespoke hews to the tradition of “meticulous measurement,” “cus- tom paper pattern” and “bast- ed fitting” protocols that define the very best classic Bespoke process, which for generations has been the gold standard of a hand-made garment. paolostyle.com
Paolo has already earned the respect of the international market looking for the unassailable sartorial correctness. He has also crafted a following amongst a new gener- ation of men looking for the expertise and personalization Paolo brings. One who respects the craftsmanship and unique experience of a bespoke suit.

Paolo’s vast experience in the custom-clothing business in New York has allowed him access the best individual pattern makers, cutters and master tailors in the city. He has extensive knowledge and an appreciation for premium quality fabrics and artisanal findings from the world’s finest mills.

Paolo Martorano Bespoke garment typically goes from first fitting to final delivery in 12 weeks.

“I believe in beautifully constructed, classic, tailored clothing, and by extension, helping clients intentionally express themselves through what they choose to wear on a daily basis.

That’s the promise of bespoke clothing, and a pretty apt description of what we do.”


“The truth is, everything begins with a discussion, where I try to understand both what they need and what they de- sire. Once we get a handle on that, we can get to work on the initial garment, and from that point on, it only gets better.”
