Our Story

Where it all began.

How we started

Tailored was founded on the idea people should be confident buying apparel online. Confident they will make the right choice the first time, to avoid the hassle of returns.

What we do

Today Tailored works with leading fashion brands and retailers to provide personalized online-fit solutions to reduce returns and waste while increasing conversions. Tailored helps product development and QA teams work smarter and more efficiently to reduce costs and improve time-to-market.
