Etymology

The word tailored derives from the verb tailor, which originates from the Old French taillour ("cutter"), itself from the Latin taliare ("to cut"). The suffix -ed marks it as a past participle, implying something "shaped by cutting" or "customized." Historically, tailors cut cloth to fit individuals, leading to the modern sense of precision and personalization.
