< p > "regardless of men and women, the pursuit of personalized clothing has become increasingly evident."

People in the clothing industry say that nowadays, the young people are tired of the same way, and pursue new and unique personality. The new style can satisfy the pursuit of these people, so the personalized tide card has become a hot spot.

Li Hanzi, who has been in the garment industry for many years, chose to be a fashion men's wear brand. "Men's demand for personalization and fashion is still a blue market," P said.

As the general manager of DE SENS, a male menswear brand, she believes that men take more responsibilities in their lives. Men in the city are very stressed and often do not have time to work hard on clothes. "We hope that this part of our work will be done by us. We provide not only clothing, but also matching services."

< p > DE SENS men's boutique living hall opens the first store in Guangzhou. The shop with an area of about 200 square meters has four product lines, providing customized services for suits, shirts, handcrafted neckties and accessories. Tailored, material selection, production, dressing and styling are all provided by designers. At the same time, they will add the avant-garde elements to the custom-made fashion matching with personal character and personal style.
