In contrast to the vast majority of the other tailors at this price point, Ehkay Corner does not outsource — all garments are produced in their workshop locally. As a general rule of thumb, tailors with an in-house production have better control over their back-end, and therefore possess a higher consistency in their products as compared to tailors who outsource their production overseas. Overall, Ehkay Corner is one of the best affordable tailors in Orchard. Lastly, Ehkay Corner also offers affordable rental services, so if you only have a temporary need for a suit e.

Not only do they have over 5 years of experience in dressing grooms and groomsmen for their big day, but they are also unafraid to push boundaries stylistically without breaking the bank.
The production of their garments are also made locally, which should translate to a higher level of consistency. For those planning to re-use their wedding suit for work afterwards, I highly recommend topping up a little and going for the VBC option. Prices are after the abovementioned discount.

Fit is great as well, with two fitting processes implemented Muslin fit first, and a basted fitting thereafter to perfect the fit. In comparison: As compared to Sors Studio, the craftsmanship of their suits are superior.
In comparison to Closeknip, Perfect Attire also incorporates a two-tiered fitting process, which in theory should lead to a better fit. Just for readers, Perfect Attire is offering a free shirt with any suit purchase. As aforementioned, I doubt one can find a fully-canvassed suit with a free shirt! I also like the style and fit of their vests, shirts and trousers. Interested customers are recommended to book an appointment online prior to dropping by. Review: I reviewed my experience with Perfect Attire here , and the fit and workmanship of the suit here.
I also reviewed the abovepictured waistcoat-led ensemble from them here , which I really liked. For those who prefer a more sartorial vibe, Closeknip is for you.

Decades of experience and ultimate attention to detail: Inventory has highly-skilled craftsmen. This tier of suit-making involves a very high level of craft with complete customisation from the initial-to-final stitch. Involving a minimum of three visits — the first consult, a fitting, and a forward fitting for final additions — bespoke suits take any where from two to three months as the patterns and canvases are cut from scratch according to every nook and cranny of your body.
Needless to say, this is the most costly option. Wool-polyester blends are also common. Shoulder pads should end with your shoulders right at the joint, and arms should fit comfortably without being baggy or too tight to move about.
For your trousers , half an inch to one inch of break stacking against your shoes is ideal, although some may prefer no break at all. As for the torso , your flat hand should easily slip under your suit and tug just a little with a clenched fist.
Depending on your tailor, you may be offered a varying amount of customisation. Vents the slit at the back of the jacket are either single one at the center or double one on each side.
Both styles are equally classy, but double vents put more emphasis on your behind. In contrast, three-button suits look literally more buttoned up and stiff, and are best worn by very tall men. Speaking of buttons , those on quality suits are usually horn , bone , or mother-of-pearl.
Opt for dark colours like navy or black for more formal and darker suits, and brown ones for versatility. The lighter and paler the button, the more casual it is. The best quality suit buttons are made from horn, bone, or mother-of-pearl.
