The answer probably depends a bit on the tailor but my advice would be to see a tailor on the Fri and tell him you need the stuff till Tue morning. This will probably mean first fitting for shirts on Sat and suits on Sun. Then it really depends on the amount of work that needs to be done. You could have two fittings a day. Having those extra two days when you return will give you a good chance to get everything done right. Just don't tell them you will be back unless you are absolutely happy with the result you have.
