This Week’s Top Story

The Tie Bar (918 W. Armitage Ave., thetiebar.com) has extended its styling services and its selection with Made to Measure. The new program, which launched last week at the store’s Lincoln Park flagship, offers custom suits to complement the dapper inventory of dress shirts and ties.

Starting at $650, the suits are made from 120 types of fabrics and come in a range of colors and patterns. For shoppers who need help narrowing down the selection, free one-on-one styling appointments are available. The sessions—which can take place in the store or in a customer’s home—focus on specific needs, including looks for work or business travel.
