Morning guys, I was going to attend my convocation not long from now, so I need a coat for it.
I went to several shops like G2000 and Padini, the price was around 400 ~ 700.
As for low budget, I went to Jusco also, but those coat with 150+ ~ 200, does not have good cutting as it does not fit me well, cause I was kinda skinny.
So, my budget is 200, where could I find this fit cutting coat with low price ?

ur best chances are probably sg wang..

Those that you saw in Jusco selling for around RM150+ are probably from Jusco's in-house brand Suave. They are cheap but the silhouette of the suit jackets are not flattering: likewise, the same goes for most of the lowly-priced suit jackets in Kamdar.

I suggest heading to Brands Outlet as sometimes you can easily find really affordable suit jackets for around, if not under, RM200. Quality wise, I'd say pretty fine for what you pay for and I reckon some of the suit jackets come from the same factory as Padini / SEED. The good thing is, the cutting should be similar to Padini's.

You could also take Cheenoo's suggestion and look for really cheap China/Korean ones (around RM120) at Sungei Wang or the Stuff for Lads section but I have to warn you that although the jackets are slim, the quality of the fabric is horrible.

By the way, I suggest that you get a suit (inclusive of the pants) instead of the jacket only as orphaned suit jackets are quite obvious even to some untrained eyes.

look at Campbell - jalan dang wangi near sogo and pertama complex

The stuff selling at Campbell is regular cutting. Not those slim fit kind of stuff. In other words its for the old people. Impossible to land one cheap one with such cutting. The best bet is Sg Wang. The stuff in Reject shop isn't any better too. But you could go check it out if you want to.

Went 1U today, did not found any. Any exact shop or location ?

1U, Mid Valley & Pyramid confirm don't have for your budget. You need to find in Sg Wang and Times Square nearby.

you want skinny, i dont think a 200 price budget can get you anything nice .. probably try dior homme as they fit really skinny and nice but retails for defiantely more than 200 ringgit

Parkson at Pavillion is throwing a sale... G2000 blazer is quite reasonable.
Padini have 50% but the design is a bit.... yuck.

im looking for the same too.

devilshen, did u manage to find any?

i just buy korean suit for my convocation and less from rm200....
it very hard to find cheaper suit for the skinny size and less from rm200..
i already do a survey and i think just buy the korean suit only...hehe

try topshop or g2000 lo

Hey guys i also looking for cheaper coat. But i want to know the different between blazer and formal coat. Can anyone of u tell me which is more suitable for convocation event?
This guy is selling nice blazer... but just want to know which is more suit for the event. Thanks

kalo tempah khas, mmg xde r harga tu

kalo yg dah ready made, try r tgk kat kamdar/globe

Previously I saw Carrefour have sell, less than RM100. But don't expect good quality blazer if less than RM100.

Sunway Pyramid new wing got. Shop name call 'Hi Style' Lot F1.AV.09

if you dont mind waiting for delivery, got some from ebay

Thx for the reply, i need it fast and it doesn't has to be top quality.

have u considered renting one?

Renting one is already rm50 and above, might as well buy one.

Bundle (Second hand ) - RM5 - RM60
Reject Shop - RM 169
SUAVE (Jusco) - RM 199
Kamdar - RM 79 - RM 199

Just buy one from the lowyat punya garage sale la. Those Korean Blazer is damn nice yo! A full suit is for very serious occasion only boleh la.

I saw TESCO puchong is giving out 50% off their jackets yesterday. I think valid till Sunday.

Hi, appreaciate if you could pm me the tailor shop.
Thanks

if for convo, my experience is that the gown will cover most of the body from head to ankle, only a little bit will be seen, so not worth spending so much IF the suit is only for 1 occasion. buy a cheap one (with matching color with your gown) or rent one would be ok. but if you will wear it at least a few times more, then buy something better la. but, a lot of ppl put on weight very fast after graduated and work, so maybe the 1st suit will be too small for you after a few years, so it should not be too expensive - sakit hati later.

I got my g2000 suit jacket for rm39 from JPO.

Sapu sama dia.

There used to be a groupon offer for blazers, 50% off, paid <100 I cant remember exactly. Skinny/slender cut, good for office.

Have u tried FOX tailor? High quality would be arnd ~RM600 (my complete wedding tux + bow + cufflings).. for normal blazers shud be arnd ur budget.

And I think Padini/PDI sometimes offer their blazers at crazy discounts.. I bought one, all white, 70% discount, paid <RM100, last year during Y.E.S promo

However, is it still the same price ? for around RM600 ( your complete wedding tux + bow + cufflings)

I guess it depends on material and the total no of items..
