FWIW there's probably a Saville Road in every village in Britain, and more than a few here in the U.S. </font> Seriously; my first port of call when I need a suit is HKG (Not a 24 hour place!) or SIN. Fine, I have few nice suits from Saville Row; but when it comes to wearing stuff day in, day out - I'd far rather walk around in something where I don't have to worry about beer spillage et al... And for those of us who are undergoing a sense of humour failure - I'm adding a disclaimer to first post; all was deeply tongue in cheek (sic!). Regards, Alex |

depends on my mood, but most usually t-shirt or shirt in the summer and sweater in the winter... but always baggy jeans with airwalks, etc... all my friends think I look like I belong in Y class instead of F... http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/tongue.gif

Basically what ever you feel comfortable in and which is not illegal in the 3 countries (origin, airline, destination) involved.

Zegna makes a fine suit. Their Wool/Cashmere blends are wonderful, and their shirts and ties are very fine.
I will admit, that I found a tailor who was formerly employeed with Zegna and Brioni, now living and working in Bangkok. He imports the fabrics from Italy (and a few other places) and from the same mills. He has made me several suits to my specifications and they look as impressive as the aforementioned names. He can handtailor a suit in about 7 days, with about 9 fittings. The price is very reasonable and affordable (to me, with my budget.) To keep this on topic (UA), if you are going to do a mileage run, go to BKK get some shirts/suits, spend a few days, and get some miles too! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif |
flying rev, would you care to furnish us with his details

As luck would have it I'm in BKK next month; I'd love to try new tailor - can you tell us where to find this guy? It would be appreciated.
Regards, Alex |
