agree  Mario Freitas: "sob" medida. No Brasil, dizemos "sob medida". Talvez em Portugal se diga "por medida"(?).

neutral  airmailrpl: all "alfaiataria" is "por medida" or "sob medida"..even the alterations "ajustes" are always "por medida" or "sob medida"

agree  Francisco Fernandes: Nem sempre, airmalrpl. Você pode comprar um terno em uma loja e precisar ajustá-lo. Os alfaiates profissionais constituem uma (infelizmente) profissão em extinção, assim com muita outras.A sugestão do Mário para mim é a melhor. Um traje sob medida.
