    Suit Jacket Measurements Question

    Usually a 42 sized jacket is designed for someone who has a chest measurement of 42". The jacket would usually be 2" to 3" bigger than your chest measurment so it is consistent with a size 42. Whether it will work for you will depend you your actual chest measurement. Jeff

    Tailors in the Middle East

    Two years ago I had some dress shirts made at Royal Fashion in Dubai. They were delivered a day earlier than promised but were too large in the shoulders. They remade them for the next day (the original delivery date). I am still happy with them. From memory they were around $60.00 each. Jeff
