In Reply to: Suit 4 Yr12 Ball-Tailor Recommendation? posted by Ruby on Wednesday, 4. November 2009 at 10:58 Bali Time:
additional details, but...
1) The range of material available at tailors or at places like Alto Mode is very good.
2) I would be inclined to search magazines etc to find a style that is preferred and take with you.
3) I would leave plenty of time up your sleeve (so to speak) for any alterations etc that may be required.
Tell the tailor that you are leaving a couple of days before you actually are.....this avoids any last minute rush jobs and proper fitting oportunities.
I would think that 5 days is a fair time to allow for the first fitting.
