Watson Ellis
New York, NY
Watson Ellis is a bespoke tailoring atelier in Chelsea making suits, shirts, jackets and coats for androgynous, nonbinary, gender-neutral, transgender and queer clients, fully canvassed and handmade with one master tailor per garment.
Every consultation starts with fabric, drawn from Italian and British mills, and the studio balances the textile against the cut. Alterations are included from the first fitting to the last, which matters when standard sizes do not describe the client.
Melissa Watson Ellis started the business in 2018, drawing on a background that includes custom suiting and a line of sewing patterns for McCall's.
