Almost every Singapore tailor will tell you a suit is "from" some number, and almost none of them mean the same thing by it. Picadilly Tailors publishes the lowest figure anyone here will put in writing, $259, but that variant is 100% polyester on an 8 to 10 week wait, and its own pure-wool option is $989. We Are Suitable starts at $299 and drops to $279 a suit once you order five. Edit Suits Co. is the cheapest place on this list to get into a proper mill fabric at $749, and it adds $100 for the tuxedo option where Made Suits adds $150. Made Suits publishes the most complete ladder in Singapore, from a $1,599 house Japanese wool two-piece to a full-bespoke tier it lists at $17,050 to $50,000. CYC, tailoring here since 1935, is at $1,300 for house blends and $2,660 for branded cloth. Every price, address and lead time below was read off each tailor's own website, price list or product listing on 19 September 2026.
Singapore tailors publish more of their prices than most people expect, and the spread between them is enormous.
> Quick view: the cheapest published custom suit is Picadilly's $259, but that is polyester on an 8 to 10 week wait. Wool with a full price ladder realistically starts at $749 (Edit Suits Co.). Tuxedos cost $100 to $150 extra.
How this list was checked
Every price, address, opening hour and lead time above was read on 19 September 2026 from the tailor's own website, published price list or product listing, not from a directory or a review aggregator. Where a figure exists only behind a consultation, the entry says so instead of quoting a third party's estimate. Two internal contradictions turned up in the process and are flagged on the cards: Picadilly Tailors' tuxedo listing describes the garment as "from $299.00 onwards" while its own fabric options start at $359, and Edit Suits Co.'s shirt package describes a free Essentials shirt as "worth $139" while its price list shows Essentials shirts from $129.
Reading a tailor's "from" price
The headline number is nearly always the cheapest cloth, and cloth is most of the price. Picadilly Tailors proves the point inside one shop: the same suit is $259 in polyester, $659 in a wool-polyester blend, $859 in wool-rayon, $989 in pure wool and $1,459 in premium branded wool. So the first question is not "how much is a suit here" but "how much is a suit here in a fabric I would actually wear in this climate".
Three other things move the number after you have chosen cloth:
- Canvas. Most quotes here are half-canvas. Common Suits charges S$300 to go full canvas; Edit Suits Co. and Made Suits both footnote that their published suit and jacket prices are half-canvas or unconstructed and price full canvas on request.
- The tuxedo switch. Edit Suits Co. adds $100 per suit, Made Suits adds $150. If you are buying black tie, that is a real difference on an otherwise similar bill.
- GST. Only Common Suits states that its published figures include it. Everywhere else, assume 9% may land on top and ask for the all-in number in writing.
Which one to walk into
- You want a suit and you want to understand the bill: Edit Suits Co., because the mill-by-mill ladder is public and the entry at $749 is the cheapest branded-cloth route here.
- You are dressing a wedding party: We Are Suitable, at $289 a suit from three and $279 from five, or Edit Suits Co.'s 10% Essentials Groom Package if you want the better cloth.
- You need the cheapest possible suit and time is not an issue: Picadilly Tailors at $259, going in with your eyes open about polyester and an 8 to 10 week wait.
- You want full bespoke: Made Suits publishes its bespoke ladder from $3,399; Meiko Tailor works at the same end but quotes only in person.
- You need it this weekend: Ehkay Corner Tailor rents on 72-hour blocks.
