hi littlebettle, the price is reasonable and still within my budget. I just tailor a trousers and will get it next week and will see how was the craftmanship before i go for my shirts there. The price he quote me is about 300 bucks per pair, shirt and trousers.

btw, looking at the small piece of sample fabric is too hard for me to imagine how the finished shirts looks like, scare to have the shirts that looks nice in fabric, but not nice when it done. any one of u experience that before? and any tips when choosing the pattern of the fabric? smile.gif

Totally agree.

With RTW (Ready to wear) you get what you see (& fit )

With Bespoke , the item in question can fit better in the hands of a skilled artisan. It can also be a sartorial disaster in the hands of a novice. The only problem is, you will find out how it will turn out sometime down the road when the item is ready for delivery.

agree too, just get my tailored trousers and found that the cutting is not the one i desire for, even the length and waist is perfect, and i cannot say i reject that.

As my body is in the normal size, so is not difficult for me to get the cloths which can fit me well. For trousers i will still go for tailored, but not for dress shirts, bcs the details need to know of a shirts is a lot, include the printed pattern, fabric type, minor design.... some looks good in sample but not necessary great in finished shirts.
