Looking for charcoal grey cloth recommendation for suit commission

Hi Guys,

Going to commission a bespoke suit for wear in very sunny Singapore.
Looking for recommendations for a charcoal grey cloth that looks close to black color but you can still tell clearly it isn't black under good sunlight. New workplace requires more somber colors but I do not want a black suit.
Needs to have a lighter weight and open weave if possible since it is darn hot in Singapore.
My tailor can source from most mills but if you see a listing in the B&S/Ebay that fits this criteria, please let me know too.

Thank you very much!

Unfortunately I cannot help you with your question, But I would be interested who is your tailor or whom you can recommend in Singapore. I moved here while ago and now I am looking for a tailor as good as my Kong Kong tailor used to be.
Thank you.

what's ur budget? guabello 150's are pretty good for their price, and its pretty light compare to other well known brands.
