Depending on where you are coming from (i.e., not from Hong Kong), I also recommend having a suit and maybe some shirts made
Good to know someone's backing me up here.

JKof, as for getting stuff made (I've got my guy here in HK), there is a tailor on Shao Xing Lu (almost across from the bookstore), something "stitches" (maybe royal?) is the name. Anyhow, its a nice looking shop with some great fabrics and of course HK prices to boot. I was thinking of getting a shirt made there but passed since I only had a day or so. Any experience with the place?
