The obvious next step is M2M shirts. I've bought a couple from Cad and the Dandy and one from Stephen Haroutunian - I liked them, but I wasn't blown away.
The problem with RTW shirts, which I really ought to have realised a LONG time ago, is that they measure the neck size and guess the rest! I am a 15 3/4" neck, but I'm on the small side (in terms of height) - so I either have to get a 15.5 (which is tight on the body) or a 16 (which swamps me). I don't like fitted shirts because I am a bit stocky - so 16" fitted shirts do not look great either. I tend to buy TM Lewin because at least I can get shorter arms (although they are still too big!) So then the penny dropped ... buy MTM or bespoke and the shirt might just fit me!I was also thinking of Stephen Haroutunian probably for casual shirts (although my idea of casual is similar to dress shirts) in terms of colour - light lilac and lavender hues - and fabric.
Did you try RTW shirts? If so, which makers and what was the comparison in terms of fit, quality and fabric compared to your MTM experience?
I'm willing to try MTM for casual because I want a choice of colour, fabric and shirt collar style, but am unsure whether the difference between Charles Tyrwhitt £25-30 poplin shirts (point collar) in light blues / turquoise and light lilacs is worth the price differential.
For now, I'll stick to CT to build up base colours, Drakes for ties and explore Stephen Haroutunian for casual shirts that work with a dark olive sports coat and dark brown / grey flannel trousers.
I'll keep an eye on this thread.
I'm new on here, so please be kind!
I've just discovered the world of made-to-measure suits and can't quite believe that it took me as long as this! I've bought a couple so far and I'm really pleased with the results.

One of the owners posted on this thread (see above). I'm definitely going to give them a go - they seem very good quality (based on the website!) and the price is more reasonable (£125). I need about 7 or 8 shirts in total, so I'll buy a few and, if I like them, they can have the rest of my business!
I gave them a call ... bespoke shirts start at £225 (minimum order of 4 shirts), so a bit more than I was hoping to spend, unfortunately.
Harvie and Hudson also do MTM shirts, at a price closer to your target range (maybe £175?). I'm a long-time, satisfied customer of their MTM shirts, and I have a similar neck/body size disparity.
