On MC today.

i think im going to ah loke for my next suit =D

btw if you don't mind, what's your weight? so three meters of fabric was enough i assume?

Bring out the armholes!

wait

Here's a RTW from my student days. Heavily altered.


And this is a bespoke tweed from Kuala Terengganu.


Ah Loke. I can tell you that this is the tightest among the three.

Are you serious? Wouldn't that be a Thom Browne?

Yes. I'm serious. I think it makes it special. I don't care what anyone thinks.

I wonder how was the conservative Ahloke's reaction on those pants. "En leng!!, En leng!!"

ermm... is it too "over" if i wear a casual+blazer out there in malaysia? just wanna ask around bfore i get my blazer coz a lot of my fren said "its already so hot and you're still wearing more than one piece " =.=''

of course if we are wearing it out when we are working its different but if it is for casual use? any opinion?

sorry for such question ^^"'

thats the response you're going to get from alot of ppl.. but it boilds down to whether you think it suits you or not, and whether it will be acceptable in your circle of friends.. i remember one of my friends showed up in university with a skinny jean one day and all my other friends laughed the hell out of him and called him "rempit", he went home right away to change and came back later for class..

describe hows the "blazer" you wanna get..

ermm i still looking for more options... tested a few at topman skinny fit blazer ermmm grey color if you've been to topman, i think thats the only grey color skinny blazer there ^^"' ermm the fabric is not those formal suit one >.< lol i dunno wats the name

ermm you got any suggstions? maybe i can try them out ^^

Unless it is really a cold day, I can hardly comprehend the jeans/tshirt/blazer look in Malaysia. In fact, I think it is absurd. Most importantly, do you feel hot?

I think the trick to being dressy is to pick the right moment. You should not show up to a normal lecture in the middle of the semester with a blazer. For no reason.

But if you're attending a friend's birthday party in a restaurant, it merits something with a sense of occasion. Dressing a bit out of the ordinary is almost a requirement.

ya sumtime even walking from hang tuah to pavilion also sweating already >.<'' even if i really do find a blazer that suit me, i cant think of where to wear them casually ^^'' but feel like trying them out ^^

im guessing you're talking bout something like this:



a suit jacket would be a better term, topman's materials are pretty alright for both formal and casual (although many may consider their cutting/design a little too trendy).. most of the new stuff are wool and polyester mix..

check out people's for more casual choices, they have a number of low price cotton jackets..

yupp, like for me on normal classes i choose to wear polo-t, khakis/jeans, if i know the particular room is very cold, i may choose to wear a cardigan/cotton jacket.. for a special event, birthday party in friends house or even to church, i put on my suit jacket..

ermm... u think its funny if i wear a blazer to wedding dinner? never saw anyone wear bfore ^^"' coz if i do get a casual blazer i think i will only wear them on special occasions like party at restaurant like u said, wedding dinner? or dunno where else ^^"'

ohh if i am not mistaken the one i saw is wool ^^"'
btw "people's" < is a brand? lol never heard of it... where can i find it?

Anything that happens once in a lifetime (typically) and costs a ton of money deserves special dress.

they have ones which are pure wool as well, but those prices are like RM800 for the jacket alone.. the mix wool ones around around RM500-RM600..

yes people's is a brand, malaysian one.. somewhere above topman in mid valley..
