(jacket only) Fitting in 10 days, completing in 7 days. Total 17 days. At least that's what the tailor told me. But mine actually done in 20 days

KFW was featured in a news article some time ago. IIRC they are one of the old timers in the area and are pretty good. Don't expect a modern cut though.

the JLN Sultan MRT project, does it affected the street shops ? hopefully the tailor is still there.
