well i started off purchasing ready to wear sport jackets for RM400, then gradually my interest for better fitting clothes grew and i started off altering my clothes, and of course custom made is considered the best fit for any person and recently i was fortunate enough to be able to purchase my first custom made suit.. btw post up a picture of your suit if you have the time =)

BlueKM - hmmm where would you wear that to? its quite an odd looking jacket, looks like a changshan, the traditional chinese clothing for males..

tbh, both ur dress shirt and that blazer should be smaller. looks very roomy to me. look at the sleeve of the shirt.. even when u cuffed them its still long.

btw i still cant take in the fact that your dream suit comes from an anime.. thats two totally completely different aspects..

Fabric plays a part in how it will look. But the cut is somewhat important. This is because a sillouette is determined by a persons body. Because in the end a tailor would make the suit based on a persons body, even if the client says he wants stuff looking like from GQ.

BlueKM, that suit can be purchased off the rack. I saw the exact same jacket, single button peak lapel coat at Padini JUSCO mid valley last year. The cut is not slim but its not roomy either. And the length much shorter and lands just slightly less than the usual on the lap coats. This year i did not check out their stuff this year.
