'tailor-made' originates from the English word 'tailor,' which comes from the Old French 'taillour,' meaning 'cutter,' and 'made,' from the Old English 'macian,' meaning 'to make.'

'tailor' changed from the Old French word 'taillour' and eventually became the modern English word 'tailor.'

Initially, 'tailor' meant 'cutter,' but over time it evolved to mean someone who makes or alters clothing.
