Tailor recommendations

One of the Mangas shops is only 5 minutes walk from work, so I'll have a look there.

Also a Thomas Pink nearby. Looking at the website, I'm not sure if they do custom fitting, or just a wide range of off the peg sizes.

What about that geezer that travels around meeting clients in 5 star hotels (best you avoid the one in Mayfare perhaps? ) who measures you up and then gets the suits made in [insert country that uses 12yo kids here].

Apparently top class suits for as little as £200???

Found it, the name of the geezer is Raja Daswani, owner of Raja Fashions.

From what I know of Thomas Pink they just do a wide range of size's, when working in the City I got all my shirts there.

Raja's the man I was looking for! Shame he's not back in Blighty till end of Jan.

Yeah but that does mean you will get a few more weeks wear out of that ASDA suit

Went shirt shopping at lunch. Tried Thomas Pink first & the shirt style I thought would be closest to my desired one didn't fit right - Too big round the body (shirt, not me) & arms not long enough.

Popped over to Mangas (seemed a dodgy name for a business, but realised they're Spanish - translates to Sleeves!) & got measured up. We'll see the results in 3 weeks.

The Raja is in town this month!

And having just done a search for comments I won't be going along to see him!

The majority gave a pretty bad impression of the service & quality of suits.

Back to Saville Row then

Goya posta link about Mr Raja as I was looking forward to getting some shirts and suits made up.

I had a search on Google & found the following:

Now, I guess people are more likely post things to complain than praise. Also, their are several newspaper articles, etc which show Raja in a good light. However, if a journo was coming to do a piece on my services, I'd push the boat out.

Weighing it up, I'll give Raja a miss this time & stick with my English tailor.
