And choose a wool cloth that is porous like say a mohair wool mix or one with an open weave like a fresco.

Neither. Kaplan. Why? :o

Oh. Cause we have a partnership with NUS and SMU that would entitle students from those 2 schools a significant discount when they make shirts, or make a complete suit (Blazer, shirt and pants). And that we will be dropping by both school in the month of March and April.

So we are just checking whether you are able to enjoy the discounts.

Oh. That's unfortunate then. :(

What the market price for tailor made a blazer? Need to tailor made one for my graduation.

$300-$3000 and up. Easier for us to give further advice if the type of cloths, level of workmanship is specified

I seen his work. Not quite sure his shirts are bespoke. I would say more towards high-end Mtm. I could be mistaken though...

Vis-a-vis Turnbull & Asser standards of bespoke shirting, I believe you are correct with regard to KS. KS doesn't (or hasn't, in my case) offer fabric bastes that clients can take home, wear a few times, wash and return for remeasurements before the final piece is cut/sewn.

Not just that. I don't recall an individual paper pattern is developed for the customer.

Anyone has anywhere to recommend to tailor a suit+pants? Wanted to go back to dylan but it seems he's unable to fit me in this week :(

Looking for somewhere where they can cut it like dylan, slim/skinny modern cut.

i think can, bespoke shirts always have buffer such as the screenshot you gave
