Costume de bal pour homme Byron, rose saumon élégant, à revers pointus

I was looking for a new tailor, browsing online, reading comments and emerged none the wiser. Honestly, how do we know the reviews are factual, relevant, self-reviewed or not smacked-down from a sore competition?After all our ‘research’, we still choose the ONE based on :1. a gut feeling the tailor is good2. a gut feeling the tailor is cheap and good3. a gut feeling the tailor is cheap, cater to your demands, has an accessible location, blah blah blah and goodAll the above stated are relative to individuals. What’s good for me, might not be good for you. Be realistic and open minded. Misshow are good. And they are not cheap (for me). Expect to pay SGD1500 for a well-made suit (a jacket and a pants). Sometimes they have some fabric promos, but that’s roughly their prices. Fabric selections are aplenty, appointments are scheduled, and you have full attention from Tailor Jack during your meeting (his full glass door will be locked). Location is central, and the store is a cosy built-up of jazzy, rustic charm. You will discover little details in the store, little extra ‘tools’, which all add up greatly to give an elevated experience. Jack is young and still discovering life, but that’s doesn’t make him any lesser of a good tailor. You kickoff with a getting-to-know-you discussion, your work, your requirements blah blah blah. Then Jack asks you your budget - cut to the chase, great! He will let you in on the price of different fabrics and you will quickly realise nothing is ‘cheap’. At this point, you might want to walk away or ‘grudgingly’ continue. Bless you if you do, because you are halfway to a well-made suit.A good suit starts from a good measure, and Jack is detailed in that aspect. After finalising more details - buttons, button holes, live button hole, hemming, lapels style, inner lining, pockets etc., you are done. Payment made, hole burnt and you will be home waiting and hoping the end product is beautiful.With much anticipation, I returned weeks later to receive my suits. I put on the newly tailored white shirt first... when Jack slipped on my jacket, tada! The fit is amazing. As I slowly looked through the details on my suit, I can only agree, this is one damn well-made suit Any leftover concerns I had slowly dissipated, while I admired every twist and turn of the sewn fabric on my less than perfect body. I am a happy man, albeit poorer, but satisfied.Will I return again? Yes, when I have the budget. Are they expensive? Yes, but worth it for the finished product. End of the day, this is my experience. Take a leap of faith and try it yourself.Sam GP.s. I gave 4 stars because Jack has so much potential to be one of the best in his trade. More to come from this young man.
