If not polyester and wool.. that what other materials are there?
ahaha.. as far as I know the recommended is wool blends.. meaning
cashmere-wool or cashmere-wool-poly etc..
CYC stands for?
City Plaza where huh?
Thailand out of the question lor.. in any case.. i manage to get
"student prices" quotations from tailors at Far East. Anywhere from
$150-250 for Polyester and $200-350 for Wool blends. Inclusive of
full satin linings and other frills such as customized names on the
blazers.
I know the prices are already very VERY competitive as compared
to ready-made. But I thinking of getting quotes and info from other
places just to compare.
CYC is a shanghai tailor shop located at Raffles Hotel. One
shirt will set you back at least S$125/- Shanghai tailor means that
one shirt, they only use one thread that goes throughout the
shirt. Thats skill lah.
My dear, your student price also not cheap leh. What does
it include? Only jacket then its too expensive liao.
My ex-hub did one jacket & two pants for less then $150 at
City Plaza leh. I dont remember the name liao since I no
longer with my ex or need to accompany him for such tailoring
events. I only know that the old man still has that shop
there.
You should also check out your neighbourhood central where those
ah peks has those pushcart stores that does pants and
shirts. Check with them to at do a jacket.
Plain blacks or stripes one you can easily find at Robinsons, so
you might as well look to tailor black but with interesting
textures. That includes some polyester mix.
