Custom shirt from London vs Nialma

[MarcoPolo]

I've just moved down to London and am wanting to get 3 or 4 custom shirts.

I'm thinking of getting Black Label shirts from Nialma. (90GBP each).

But am wondering if there is anywhere in London where you can get custom shirts in a similar price range, and maybe I'm better off in person.

Anyone?

When I used to live there we just bought at sales on Jermyn St. Never new of anyone (well in my circle of friends) being able to afford the traditional tailors. I think if you are willing to buy three you will get one free from nialma. So will work out cheaper per shirt than 90 quid.

Not much help sorry but might get someone else more knowledgeable involved!

Thanks for the input, so how much is a Jermyn St. tailored shirt? And when are these sales you speak of

 

[jessis]

Sales are fairly regular if I remember correctly - they all tend to follow each other. The shirts I bought were just off the rack. The tailored stuff there is expensive.

You will not find fabric of Thomas mason quality and made-to-measure for the same prices as online.

Thanks, I wonder if I could pay one of the tailors to measure me (for use online).

Anyone know if that's possible?

Bespoke shirts are very unlikely to go on sale. I also doubt shirt maker would measure you for an online template.

the only option i can think of is that MTM place in fulham. youll have to google up the name.
most of the bespoke operations are around 140gbp a shirt and up, probably with a minimum order

I think you would be able to go to an alterations place and get them to measure you up rather than a shop front tailor. No harm in asking...
