G'day all,
I'll be visiting my native Bangladesh shortly, and, having admired the many wonderful fabrics suits can be made in, am tempted to pick some up for myself, particularly those spoken of highly on these boards.
For the tailors among us, I'm wondering how much fabric might be required to create a suit of size 44r? (46inch chest, 20 inch shoulders, 40 inch waist, pants 37x32)
Ideally, I'd have the suit made during the course of my visit, but it might not be possible, as I'm there for 10 days, almost the entire length of the wedding celebrations.
Any help, including recommendations of the finest fabrics (types of wool, angora, cashmere, vicuna, etc) would be appreciated, as would a more technical analysis of said fabric.
I'll search the boards at greater length for this information, as well as the internet.
I'll post some pics of my favourite suits later, to illustrate the sorts of fabrics I am referring to.
Cheers.
