The designer ones can also be tailored, though. I'm probably dating myself by saying that I used to work at Barney's New York when there was only a Barney's New York (the Womens's Store was still being built). The first stop the salesmen (they were all male) took the customers to after picking out their suits was to the tailor (Attila on my floor) to get them altered for a perfect fit, which was included in the price. Of course I get your point about cost effectiveness, but the average person dropping a few k on a single item of clothing really doesn't care about that.
