I love men in suits. Always something so dashing and mysteriously high-class about a good tux or dinner jacket. Oh! and dress pants with that black velvet ribbon down the side *drools*

I saw some decent 3 piece suits in SEED for this christmas season btw.

you should look for cotton/linen materials for your jacket as they are highly breathable, thin, and lightweight..

Zara makes reasonably good suits, well they have the slim fit range as well as classic range..

yeah u can get EA for about US$1000.. the good thing about these secondary lines are that they have nearly the same quality as their main brand (in this instance GA) but at a fraction of the price..

This suit is from Lord's Tailor..

Here are some pictures from my suit fitting today..

It is a grey-coloured wool suit:
-Two-button jacket with notched lapel, centre-back vent and four-button detail at cuffs.
-Single chest welt pocket, flap welt pockets at the jacket waist. Interior has three pockets.
-Flat-front pants with a lower rise, angled front pockets and buttoned back welts.
-Modern fit, slim-cut, lower-rise pants.

*Due to the use of camera flash, the colour varies a little..

the price varies depending on store and material used.. but in general they would cost about RM1000 and above..

Good choice of tailor. I've made 5 suits from them so far. My only regret is the centre vent (which they seem to prefer), which is traditionally American. You'll find a double vent more practical when you sit down. Most other tailors seem to go for double vents as well.

yeah i am planning to go for a double vent for my next suit.. however the customer service at Lord's was not really up to my expectations.. any other tailors to recommended?

why don't you post up pictures of your suits as well, would really like to take a look at them..

Well, I've only used them so far and another tailor in Australia. Customer service was excellent but that could be because my family are regulars.

Don't think I have any pictures but will dig around.
