Made To Measure

Just got back from holiday where I had 2 new trousers, a jacket (well full suit) and 8 shirts all made to measure!!
I don't know how many people here have had clothes made just for them but it's kind of empowering and potentially addictive once you have!!!
My friend was going on about brand names like Armani suits, etc but once you've had someone made totally from scratch just for you it seems pretty pathetic paying so much for some carbon copy off the shelf item.
Like with my shirts I chose the cloth from hundreds of patterns , picked the type of collar I wanted and even the length, had slits added on the side, chose how high up I wanted the first button to start, if I wanted a curved or straight edge to the bottom, how wide I wanted the curfs, etc.
Anyone else had anything made just for them?

What did you pay put there on average for a custom made shirt, trouser, etc?
it's cheaper, and you have even more choice. oh yeah.
:yes: However, laziness is my downfall...
erm... no idea, this was a couple of years ago! just remember it being cheap! as in a lot cheaper than even suits from topman or whatever.
