The Work/Shop

Come have a look around our new store and workshop at 255 Grove St. We invite you to sit and talk style over a skinny of bourbon, or browse our One-and-Only and Ready-to-Wear collections. At DeCarlos Bespoke, good friends and quality clothing are always made the old-fashioned way.

Our Process

Not fast. Not mass.

Handmade.

They don’t make ‘em like this anymore. It takes 6 to 9 weeks to make a bespoke suit on-site in our workshop before we have you in for your first fitting, and custom shirts take about a month. We take up to 60 measurements and ask all the right questions before we get started. It’s how we get to know you and get everything just right.

A Bespoke Original

 Born to a family of creators and self-taught craftsmen, DeCarlos Morse knew early on that menswear would be his life’s work. It became clear in his hometown of Charlottesville, VA, and a childhood of Sunday mornings spent at Ebenezer Baptist Church, where dressing and doing it right are serious sport. After years of moonlighting to learn the ins and outs of the trade, he made the leap with Southern heritage brands Kuppenheimer & Co. and Britches of Georgetowne. And then, the iconic luxury brand Alfred Dunhill of London came calling. There, he received an extensive education in classic English bespoke tailoring. In between and along the way, he got his “PhD” in bespoke, thanks to the instruction and wisdom of his beloved mentors, truly some of the best tailors in the world. Add in his go-to '70s influences and you get suits and signature pieces that are classic yet always decidedly DeCarlos. With The Monument Avenue suit in hand, DeCarlos began building his brand in 2004.
