Is it a new trend that the suit's sleeve covers half your hand ? ( for example the sleeve ends on your thumb and when your arm is straight down your whole thumb is literally covered by the suit ) Or is the length just too long ?

Is the buttons working or just for show? If its working buttons then I suggest you dont get it, over length sleeves are too easily spotted.

If the sleeve buttons are fakes, then you should be able to get it altered.

yes the sleeve buttons are not there for show , it can be opened , if not mistaken theres 3-4 sleeve buttons on each side i think .

why not get the suit just because its working buttons ?

Cause the sleeves are way too long, and if it has working buttons.. its next to impossible to alter the length.

Well I suppose if you are adamant on getting it then its your choice at the end of the day. I wont get it, especially if you want your shirt sleeve to peek out abit, how long would your shirt have to be?

Yes. They will pretty much make the shirt as u like it. If you have a sample they will follow it.

Handiwork/Fit will depend entirely if the tailor is good or crap.

I guess u can get one for RM800 all in, a 2 piece form a decent tailor like Ah Loke, then again the material wouldnt be anythign to shout about.

Workmanship for a 2 piece in say Wardrobe, Bangsar would be around RM1300.

I'm planning to get just the shirt. I came across a burberry shirt in 1 of the store and the design was to my liking but the it has a price tag of over RM1k so I'm wondering if a tailor could bespoke a shirt similar to it and I'm sure it would be at a much lower cost?
