Acustom Apparel aims to produce custom fit garb. Its [advanced scanning technology](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3d-body-scanner1) measures men and women of all sizes. The precise information is in turn relayed to the team who create [tailored bespoke suits and jeans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aipowered-apparel-manufacturing).

Founders Jamal Motlagh and Katie Boyko wanted to make products in accordance with the specific and entirely unique size of each customer. Women and men often find themselves in between 4s, 6s or 8s, resulting in the need to settle for ill-fitting clothing.

Motlagh and Boyko resolved the style issue by way of their [digitized sizing procedure](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fytted). Visitors to their pop-up and flagship stores, both based in New York City, can test out the novel approach to garment making.
