When clients ask me where to start their custom wardrobe, I almost always reach for my Tom James Corporate Image Collection swatch book. These fabrics are designed to look sharp in the boardroom, travel well, and deliver exceptional value as a foundation for a professional wardrobe.
In the photos, you’ll see what I mean. Each fabric is a Super 100’s wool, woven for durability and year‑round comfort, then cut and made to your measurements in our Tom James facility in Chile. The hand is smooth and crisp rather than flashy, which is exactly what you want when you need to look put‑together every single day.
Some of the swatches you’ll notice are classic navy and charcoal—clean, solid fabrics that anchor any corporate wardrobe and pair effortlessly with white, blue, and subtle patterned shirts. Others introduce quiet interest: a fine pinstripe that reads solid from a distance, a soft micro‑check, or a subdued blue‑grey that feels modern without being loud. Up close, the weave has just enough texture to keep the suit from looking flat, but it still photographs and presents as unmistakably professional.
These Corporate Image pieces are made in our Chile workroom, which keeps the price approachable while still giving you true made‑to‑measure fit. Suits in this collection typically start in the high‑$900s to low‑$1,000s, with coordinating sport coats and trousers that make it easy to build a mix‑and‑match capsule wardrobe. For many of my Tampa Bay professionals, this is the perfect entry point into custom—reliable, polished, and easy to wear in our climate.
If you’re looking at these fabrics and thinking, “That’s exactly how I want to show up at work,” let’s schedule a time for you to see and feel them in person. I’ll walk you through which swatches best match your role, your industry, and how you actually live and work here in Tampa Bay.
