which boutique you went to?

i just came back from visiting de-catano in hartamas, the bangsar one did not have the starting price materials.. the tailor in de-catano was really nice.. ordered the same material you did but with my own details and specifications, so its fully custom made.. i just hope he got every single thing i specified, because it didn't seem like he wrote some of them down..

RM180, but its single-ply cotton tho..

one week and my shirt will be ready..

me went to Jaya33..
yups, they have the tendency of nt writing stuff down, went to them also to alter me jeans keke
any extra charges? me shud think not.. i like the details on the collar and sleeves too

RM180 is the price..

the ready-to-wear one was RM160.. but i didn't like the pockets, and i wanted a more narrow collar..

lets see how it turns out =D

if u dont mind post it here >.<

Hi peeps,

I like the way it fits as when i tuck in, the bk part doesn't need to be untidy unlike my ready made shirts eg. G2k
happens coz i kinda have to bring the "access" frm the sides to the bk kinda thing, dunno if u ppl understand
I am nt the kind who tucks my shirt in and then pull out a bit

here are me pics (plz forgive the lousy quality, dun hv a dslr and am nt usually a camwhore );

Next project, something purple or a white shirt base with dark green button holes keke

gosh it looks so damn nice le devilzzz

Looks good on you, body-hugging fit, "trendy" details etc. Good for clubbing and such. Sleeves at least 1 inch too short if not more, notice how the cuffs slide back to your forearm when you raise your arm.

Great, there's one de-catano in shah alam. Will try take a look, also looking for a reasonable price tailor for shirts.

u knw where to find me tailor

thanks for the advice, my nxt shirt will defnitely see longer cuffs
but is it like wrong to have like short cuffs?

thanks for the advice

i am afraid i can't help u there sorry

i am thinking of something not so fitting the next time around and see how it goes
but as i said, i want a neat back when my shirt is tucked in

i get also what you say abt the collar being wide, something for me to also note the next time around

Good Luck

It's not the cuffs, it's the sleeves. The sleeves need to be longer. Do you like the breast pocket? Do you think they add value to the look or are they a distraction?

i was looking at the shirt yesterday and the collars were really broad.. 3 and a half inches wide if im not mistaken.. i had mine narrowed down to 2 inches..

i think he looks somewhat alright with that huge pocket..

but yeah d3vilzzzz, maybe you should consider a smaller pocket? or no pockets at all.. feels more modern..

but why u thinking of getting something less fitted?

you feel it is too tight?

the sleeves should be longer then ..k k.. understood
i kinda like a breast pocket, coz its convenient?

i see i see, i will try narrowing the collar and see hw it goes, see if i look better keke

i m into the details but it nvr crossed my mind that the breast pocket was too big
oo, no pocket, its the "in" thing nw keke i see many shirts sold nt having the breast pocket
will definitely take into consideration

THANKS FOR THE INFO PEEPS

hmm, i guess i am nt like used to very "slim" fit clothes?
i want also to experiment say, take things up half a inch and see if i can tuck my shirt in neatly

hey bro jind86, how much does it roughly cost to shorten the sleeve length of a dress shirt and shorten the length of a short in Ruth's tailor? and how long it normally takes?
