Ok, but they are not tailors and also the suit is fused, as far as I know. I wish you luck.

Y William Yu wanted HKD5,000 for the suit, HKD1,300 for a vest.

Gordon Yao wants HKD7,500 for the suit, HKD 2,200 for a vest.

All were very nice and accommodating. I'm surprised that Peter's prices have gone up so much.....

But what about the fabrics?
These prices are the lowest he does for his standard fabric (whatever that may be)?

Or you provide the fabric?

Cmt = bring your own cloth. Figure 200 usd or more with cloth included

Yes, serious, they are "designer" as I know, but not fashion designer, so I really wish you luck.
I think the suit will be half fused half canvassed at best in this price.

I'm interested as well, I emailed Gordon before the new year and his price was in the 5000 range. I'm secretly hoping the 7500 quote included cloth.

Hmm... I visit Gordon today, and yes, his price is going up especially on CMT. For the new customers, he is enforcing the new price. For the old customers, now is in a "grace period," but it won't last long.
So, sorry guys, have to say this poor news.
