For that budget, it may be better to buy off the rack. Marks & Spencer has some really nice trousers for $60-$70. Am sure some other department stores do have too. As a 1.93m tall guy, M&S works best for me if I need something quick. I tailor make my suits and dinner pants. Yes. These can be costly here in SG. I generally will head to Bangkok. So much cheaper, and the quality is quite good. The last time I was there pre-Covid, I made 2 full suits, 5 pants, 4 shirts. Cost me SGD$680. The amount of savings allowed me to bring my family of 4 for a short 5 day-4 night holiday. robocopshsh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happypup Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 I would think Seah Im market there will have cheaper tailors.. not sure good or not.

Guest Try and see Posted May 21, 2022 Report Share Posted May 21, 2022 There are a few at Queensway Shopping Centre. Reasonable price and good outcome. I made my work pants there before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farku29 Posted May 23, 2022 Report Share Posted May 23, 2022 I tried this https://www.suityourselfsg.com/ based at Far East Plaza. Very good marketing, very good service, and they even have a body scanner where you strip naked and the system scans your body in a 3D manner, which technically should give you a super bespoke and customised suit right? Wrong. The whole suit just feels weird. So weird that I didn't even bother asking them to re-do anything coz there's just so many things that needed to be done. Damage was close to $500.

There are online stores that claim to make the "perfect" suit/shirt/pants for you, based on the measurements that you submit to them via an online form. Don't believe it. For bespoke clothing, there's nothing like the personal touch of an in-person tailor/dressmaker, because every person's body proportions are unique. E.g. Merely measuring the leg length and waistline are insufficient for making pants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluerunner Posted August 7, 2022 Report Share Posted August 7, 2022 Not sure if this question is appropriate here. Dear moderators, please delete it if this is not the right place for such posting. Asking this on behalf of a friend: Is there any gay tailor around? My friend has some intimate clothings that need alterations. This, he prefers to bring them to a gay tailor. Please leave me a msg if you know of any. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
