Review of Studiosuits customer complaints, rating & accreditation on Better Business Bureau
Is Studiosuits registered on BBB?
Studiosuits is not registered on BBB. Therefore, this business has no BBB rating and accreditation.
It took a while for them to understand that I only needed a size down from what the sizing chart offers however. They tried to reach out as much as possible to get the job done correctly.
I had a few questions about styles and they were prompt and detailed with the answers. They definitely have just about the best customer service I had ever experienced with an online company.
Paul, Terry and Brian were rockstars! They helped me with everything and even contact me to make sure some of the measurements were correct before production. Greatest team ever!!!
I really ordered the suit as a trial run to see if the quality would be acceptable and if the "bespoke" description was in fact a hand-made item... it is obvious to me that great card was taken in the creation of my suit and this company provides excellent and reliable service. I will definitely be ordering more pieces from them in the near future. Great job!
StudioSuits brought my attention to an email that was sent to my junk folder. It requested that I buy an additional suit for $99 to ensure that my measurements were correct. Even on the surface, this is not ideal. If it takes 2-4 weeks for shipping in general, why would I quite literally double the process by having an additional suit tailored and delivered?
Studiosuits were waiting for me to accept or decline an offer to spend MORE money before beginning production on the suit I ordered. Nowhere in the email did it state that my order would not begin production until I responded to this offer. Nowhere on my account page on their website did it state that my suit production wouldn't begin until I responded. The fact that my entire suit's delivery was contingent on this one email, which ended up in my junk folder, is flat out ridiculous.
Further, it wasn't stated anywhere in our email communication just how delayed my order was. The verbiage all seemed to be vague enough that I could assume my order was still on track. They told me it was "into production", that they had contacted their factory, etc. However, when I reached out again after no contact for ten days, they told me they had JUST ordered the fabric from Italy, which will take 10-15 days. Then tailoring. Then shipping. All of this puts the delivery date WEEKS after my wedding. Thankfully they offered a refund, but the process by which they sought to fulfill this order is completely unacceptable.
If I had not reached out to begin with, would my suit have never been delivered? Were they happy to sit on my $800 until I accepted or declined an offer to spend more money?
So now I need to find a new suit that fits our wedding and get it tailored during COVID within three weeks.
"Where for chest you had given us 34" and we made 38",
For stomach you had given us 28" and we made 33",
We add standard loosening to the measurements you provide us for better comfort and movement.
We would request you to alter the waistcoat as per your requirement with the help of your local seamstress since it can be easily altered."
Adding 4-5" to measurements is crazy. It's a vest, not an overcoat.
It cost me $60 to have the waistcoat altered to fit.
StudioSuits refused to refund any portion of the purchase. Studiosuits offered 25% gift card towards next purchase (obviously not helpful).
Buyer beware, if they make an error on your order, there's no recourse.
The Massimo D'Alba suit retails at £990, mine was considerably less and of course made to measure.
I found the website easy to use and nearly allthe options I required were available - working cuffs, unlined finish, natural shoulders, horn buttons, suspender buttons, ticket pocket, pick stitch. I used a mixture of measurements taken from the body and measures taken from well fitting garments where I was unsure of how I wanted the item to fit.
The jacket is beautifully finished. I went for wider lapels and working cuff buttons. The fit is good if a little boxy but that can easily be adjusted here. I will probably revise my waist size down a little when ordering again. The pick stitch is fabulous and there's a generous amount left in the cuff (although my jacket fits just as I like it)
The trouser is good but the bottoms have been finished like a jean which leaves no material to let down if Studiosuits were short - I was surprised to see this, perhaps it's because the material is corduroy that such a finish has been used.
The garments came packed in a sturdy box, and delivery took less than three weeks from date of order. Communication was adequate rather than excellent, an update half way through would have been good.
I've attached pictures. I may not look exactly like James Bond but that's hardly Studio Suits' fault!
In short - I'm delighted and will be ordering again before the week is out.
Package arrived sealed and in tact but the suit itself was in a ball all wrinkled and carelessly packaged. Blame was put on third party, no responsibility was taken from studiosuits and I will certainly avoid this company at all cost next time I am in need of a suit.
As if all this wasn't bad enough, the sewing is sloppy and the jacket is too tight.
I exchanged 5 emails with the company and Studiosuits twice requested pictures (see attached) and each time I wrote assigned a different "review number" Their best offer was to "remake" the suit for 1/2 price. No suggestions regarding re-measurement or possible corrections.
This is a terrible company and they make junk.
Rather than a coat, the item looked and felt more like a long jacket. For some bizarre reason they had placed the back half-belt under where your bum. The front pockets were placed midway down the thigh. The buttons were placed around the pelvis rather than the chest. The general styling of the coat on your website was of a retro/ classic design - but the item's styling was poorly executed. The lapels in the coat on the website are wide peaked, and the lapels on the item I received were not.
I was extremely disappointed. I was so depressed by how badly this item turned out, I had to put it back in the box and hide it at the back of my wardrobe.
In the photos you can see the image of the coat from the website on the right and the dreadful item they sent me on the right. In one photo I demonstrate with my hand where the belt is supposed to be.
At this point I entered into a strange, almost surreal set of exchanges with their customer services who generally dind't reply for a week and after my pointing out how incredibly badly the otem was made, their only suggestion was that I buy the coat again with a 50% discount. As I didn't really have the money to but the appalling coat in the first place, there would be no way I would want to engage their services again to botch another item which would cost another £90.
Even though my tweed overcoat arrived speedily and was made according to the measurements I gave, that's where the good part of this review ends.
The lesson is, you get what you pay for. A lesson I should know by now and, based on my experience, one which potential customers of Studio Suits should heed. My coat was cheap and that's what it looks like. A cheap coat.
It hangs, and wears, in a sort of baggy shapeless square, looking made rather than tailored. I think this has a lot to do with the quality of the cloth. I'm sure it is Donegal Tweed as described, but it has none of the richness of texture normally associated with that material. It's thin, to be blunt.
Moreover, the lighter orange flecking in the brown that appeared so attractive in the Studio Suits advertising, turns out to be rather muted in actuality.
The overall impression is one of a dull thin shapeless brown. It's a janitor's coat, as my wife with fatal accuracy described it.
I shall wear it, as I have no grounds for returning it, but the coat is far from what I had been hoping for.
You get what you pay for, as I said, but on this basis I can't really recommend Studio Suits.
Everything arrived perfectly and in a very reasonable timeframe! Dealing with customer service was amazing and Studiosuits were so polite and professional! I found a seamstress and am getting professional measurements and will be ordering more suits in the future. I've received many compliments on my trousers and how beautiful my vest is. My tailor had to make a couple of minor adjustments and she even commented that it was a very well made garment. I love these guys!
So polite, professional and willing to chat about my questions. Top notch!
While the jackets looks and fits well, the skulduggery to force me to pay extra for the delivery process was outrageous and should never have been charged. To add insult to injury, in no was was it made clear by Studio Suits that this process would take place and that I could face a surcharge with their customs process. Needless to say, I will not deal with Studio Suits again because of this nonsense.
Not at all !
There are excellent agents and some that make the progress more difficult. The fact that the email address is only the generic and that the ticket response doesn't connect you directly with an agent you're working well with is difficult.
If I could suggest any improvements, the one thing I would like to see would be more detail about how to measure yourself for a jacket or suit. My jacket ended up being about 2-3 cm short, but this was because I'm not a tailor and wasn't sure how long I should make it. So in a sense, it was my own fault for making it too short. But it would help customers to have more detailed instructions for the measurements.
I've pretty much written off this two hundred dollars at this point due to their unwillingness to do anything at all for refund, fix, etc. and moved on to another custom vendor for my waist coat.
Avoid if you can. I'm sure if everything goes as requested they may be good but if not it will be a nightmare.
Very happy with my purchase
