     No worries my friend. At some point, most keen suit dresser will move onto bespoke eventually, no matter how well RTW fits.

    I will love to see selfies of PeakingRoadHK, hippotamus and HIfilover in their best suiting outfit..... Are people keen on 240g wool linen silk suit with no interfusing? Hui begged me to make it this way with half lining...

    I agree all fabrics can be tailored without interfusing, but some of the lightweight, fragile stuff will look like **** if you don't properly press them now and then. I am talking about those tropical wieght super wools where it is hard to give/take shape but the most optimum to wear in deep...

    I believe business is business. It is beyond common sense to ask a businessman to tell you all the ins and outs of his trade. If you were the businessman you wouldn't like it either.... so why insist? From my knowledge, it really takes luck and experience to buy good fabrics that is worthwhile...

     Perhaps Hui does not want to scare you on price. VBC two piece would have easily push the price close to 10k...

     I think you should try VBC first. They are actually very decent fabrics. They also can order Dugdale Town or Royal classic / Huddersfield cool new wool but the whole bespoke process will take longer.

     Not the ones I brought from T&A, they don't dry up quickly, plus they wear hot for me. I have not try to purchase Sea Island cotton in Hong Kong.

    The Hong Kong Tailors Thread

     There was no problem with them, I just pick the wrong fabrics with my T&A shirts as they were purchased when I was in living in UK. No chance I am wearing densely woven twills, oxford, or even sea island cotton again in Hong Kong.

     At least we are not arbitrarily driving him to get Maserati or Porsche in his first round! We are just driving him to get a Vellfire. Although it is not the cheapest, but at least you will appreciate its quality even when you choose to move to Maserati or Porsche in the future...

     I hope I will see more leaked pictures of this gentleman in the future. I would like to see how his suits fits on people and not on dummies. I like the slightly firm English structure from the Japanese.
