Does anyone have a good tailor in Kuala Lumpur?
I'll be there for over a week. I've never been there before but have had clothes made in other Asian cities. Would KL be a good place for having shirts or suits made? If so, does anyone have a tailor to recommend?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Thanks very much. If my clients give me any free time (which they are likely to do), I will check him out.

This is an old thread... can anyone provide updated tailor referrals in KUL?
I find that my needs as a man are fairly easily fulfilled. My wife thinks that it's harder to find someone who does good work for a woman. Any recommendations that are specifically good for women?
As a true FTer, we are looking for good quality at good prices

Good tailor in Kuala Lumpur
I know a good tailor in Kuala Lumpur. His charges are very moderate but his tailoring quality is excellent. I get a few clothes done here each time I'm in KL. You can get a very decent custom made suit for approximately RM700 (about US$200) and an excellent shirt for RM150 (about US$43). This tailor is known among the expats and local corporate executives in KL.

I had my entire work wardrobe done by a woman who does work out of her own home (located in Puchong). Unfortunately, the woman only speaks Mandarin Chinese and some dialects (I believe Cantonese); not much English if any at all. Still interested?

AA Tailor is a Scam
Please DO NOT use AA tailor in malaysia, you will be very dissapointed and frustrated with their service, I ordered a few suits from them, i paid up front, which i realise now was stupid, i am still not sure if i will ever get the suits

Anyone have some updated insight on tailors in Kuala Lumpur?
I arrive there on Monday August 29 and will be in KL from 2PM - 8PM. I will then be back the afternoon of Friday September 2 from 3PM - 8PM. Will this give me enough time to do measurements and order Monday, a fitting on Friday, and then they can mail the suits based on that last fitting?
Does anyone have any experience with this?
Thanks,

NOT TRUE
Maybe you've mistaken the tailor as we visited them a lot over the past few weeks because of a wedding and he did very well.
