Custom Tailors Manila
I am looking for quality custom-made suits and shirts for myself and my fiance. Any suggestions for affordable, good craftmanship with a wide range of materials? In either Pasay or Makati?
What's the average range for a shirt? suit? I spoke to the tailor at the Peninsula and they said about $40 for a shirt...safe to assume then that that's the high end?
Thanks!

There's also a tailor at Makati Shangri-La Hotel. I haven't used it but the selection of materials is quite good. $40 is about right for a made-to-measure shirt; I get my shirts made in Bangkok. Remember you pay for the material (usually imported from Europe) rather than labor, so high-quality materials will cost more.
