What is Made to measure?

In short

Made to measure means a costume is cut to the buyer's own body measurements, and among the cosplay shops compared only some offer it.

Made to measure means a seller cuts or sews a costume to the buyer's own measurements rather than selling a fixed size off the shelf. Among the cosplay shops compared, Abracadabra NYC, Cosplay Shopper and Cosplaysky offer it; Amiclubwear and Arda Wigs do not. That single answer decides whether a shop can fit an unusual height, a non-standard waist or a particular costume silhouette. Shops without it work from a published size chart and standard patterns, so measure up before ordering.
