    Few months ago I posted my first fitting from Kay-Jen (Singapore), after which I came back for a second fitting, and finally I have collected my suit. The first thing I notice is how unpadded & light the jacket was and the high armhole. Movement was easy without constriction. With this suit...

    Wow that’s such a long lead time! What happens if you put on weight or lose weight? How are they gonna factor in these variables

    so after a long dilemma, I’ve decided to finally treat myself in making my first bespoke suit! Researched around & after a few recommendations, I decided to go ahead with Kay-Jen (Singapore) as their prices and style were quite somewhat comfortable & fits into my budget. Met the owner, Matthew...

    In cases like this, do we have the right to ask for the trousers to be re-make? As it is not his fault for the trousers to turn out so fitted and uncomfortable and having no allowance

    As of now I’m judging base on what I can find on social media. There’s not much post of Dylan’s clients wearing his suits/ jackets, and if there is, it’s at a stylistic angle. So I’m just judging base on good faith about his work from this forum reviews. I’m not sure about proportion as I still...

    Yeah I am from Singapore, and deciding between tailors like Dylan & Son, Ron & Rich, Kay-Jen, and etc.

    Thank you for the insights. Now it kinda justifies the price increase. I'm still doing my homework on finding the right tailor for myself. It is kinda confusing when there are options from less than $1000 to $4000 +++ for a suit from where I come from.
