It looks like normal button cuff shirt but you can use either cuff link or button.

There are such shirts. Its regular cuffs, but there are cuff link holes on the button side. A product of the 70-early 90s'. Hope i have time to put up a picture of it later. You could not get them anymore now.

One of my company director wear this very often, and for a 50 - 60 yrs old man, I think he really pull out the look. Was tempted to just poke a hole in my shirt for the cuff link, hehe.

Any recommendation on getting slim dress pants/working pants as I found that most of-the-rack 1 do not have slim cutting. Should I go for tailor? Thanks

there are actually many brands who make slim dress pants, topman, seed, padini to name afew.. i'd suggest going out and taking a look at these brands first.. however if you do feel that they are not to your requirement, then you could probably get them tailor made =)

Hehe, been wearing topman dress pant since I started working, got 4 - 5 of them, but they are not slim enough, and I don't like those skinny 1.

there are several cuttings from topman, their slim cut pants i think are pretty slim already.. if u want any slimmer, it wld probably be considered skinny.. post up a picture wearing your pants..

Cant post picture, just move to Singapore and no camera yet. But I got a Sisley with a leg opening of 14". Will post the photo if I go back to MY. hehe

Dear expert, can I know why my pant as shown in pic, cannot fit straightly, and every time I walk, the lowest part will like stick together and flutter left and right. Sorry, dunno how to put it in a better word.

^^I think the pants are too long. Shorten by 0.75 inches. The alterations tailor will resist doing so, or try to talk you into shortening it by 0.5 or less, but don't give in.

My initial opinion was the pants are too short le. Maybe will bring it to a tailor, but currently working in Singapore, better bring back to Malaysia and ask, cheaper hehe. Thanks anyway.
