Hi. I will go to Singapore in March. While there, I will have a MTM shirt. So I'm looking for a very good tailor. Can anyone please recommend? Thanks!

Just one shirt? Hardly seems worth anyone's trouble.

I use iris tailor for suits/jackets and strongly recommend them. CYC does my shirts. I feel they do a pretty decent job, but others will assert that they might have other cheaper sources that are better. I am happy with them.

what's CYC btw?


A tailor company - I have two of their shirts and my wife has three. They are not the cheapest but I think the quality is worth the price. I went to their main location at Raffles (a hotel/mall).

http://www.cyccustomshop.com/ They're my tailor when I make my shirts in Singapore. Not bad, but you need to know what you want and they're not exactly cheap.

Based on the politicians I've seen, no, I seriously doubt it. Haha! As far as I know, just a few of the more "prominent" ones did their shirts there. Regardless, CYC's still a good place to get your shirts done.

If CYC and Iris are not good enuff. for you chaps..... maybe you coud give Rubinacci's services in Malmaison by the Hour Glass in Knightsbridge down in Orchard Road a try.

If you are still around in mid-April, George Cleverly is offering their services for bespoke shoes at the Four Seasons. They are on an Asian tour with Seoul, Tokyo and HK I think.

Hi. I would recommend Frank Tailor for basic shirts and pants. Pricing is very reasonable but you might want to bring your own cloth
