Here's an idea - move to the Highlands. You can even rock a scarf if you want to.

I used to go up to Genting H. twice a week for gymming. It isn't what it used to be. Never needed more than just a T-shirt.

At least you wouldn't feel hot and stuffy in a sportcoat. Temperatures hardly go beyond 30c. I think.

BTW, where's FusionEx? I hope he's alright.

I have a very nice cardigan. It has a few holes in it now though. It's pure new wool, and the zipper has real leather tabs. I wore out its identical predecessor.

Brooks Brothers have very little waist suppression and is generously cut. Meant more to hide than to accentuate.

obviously in general, a tailor made suit is suppose to be better than one which is purchased off-the-rack as it is specific to your body and details.. you can get the fabric from Jalan TAR, lots of fabric stores there.. otherwise you can check out online as well, kotmj posted a link above..

at Jalan TAR, for expensive & high quality fabric, u can try jakel or gulati's silk store.

kamdar and nagoya have thier suiting fabric section too. both have 2 shops along the road. and they do have imported good quality pure wools. cheaper blended ones also available.
