Our Story

Founded 2009

TailorMe was founded on a simple but profound belief — that a man's suit is his most honest statement to the world. Not a uniform. Not a costume. A declaration.

We do not sell garments. We craft identities. Every client who walks through our door carries a story, a purpose, a life that demands to be dressed accordingly. Our role is to listen, interpret, and translate that story into cloth and form.

Our atelier sources only from the world's finest mills — Loro Piana and Zegna in Italy, Holland & Sherry and Dormeuil in England, and select heritage mills from Japan and India. Each fabric is chosen not merely for its quality, but for its character.

Fifteen years on, TailorMe remains what it has always been: a quiet room in Johannesburg, Pretoria, and Cape Town where extraordinary things are made by hand, one stitch at a time.

The Founder

Adrian van der Berg

Trained under master tailors in Savile Row and Milan, Adrian returned to Johannesburg with a singular vision: to bring the discipline of European bespoke tailoring to South Africa — and to do it without compromise. Over fifteen years, he has dressed captains of industry, heads of state, and discerning gentlemen across Johannesburg, Pretoria, and Cape Town who understand that true elegance is never accidental.

What We Stand For

The Four Pillars

01

Heritage

Rooted in generations of tailoring tradition, we honour the craft that has defined masculine elegance for centuries.

02

Precision

Every measurement, every seam, every button placement is deliberate. There is no detail too small to matter.

03

Discretion

Our clients trust us with more than their measurements. We honour that trust with complete confidentiality.

04

Longevity

We make garments meant to be worn for decades, not seasons. Timeless construction over fleeting trends.
