How much does a custom suit cost in Singapore in 2026?+
Anywhere from $259 to five figures, and the honest working range for a suit you will actually enjoy wearing is about $700 to $1,900. As re-checked on 20 October 2026, the published entry prices on this list run: Picadilly Tailors $259 for a 100% polyester two-piece, We Are Suitable $299, Ehkay Corner Tailor $380 for a house-cloth two-piece, Edit Suits Co. $749 for a two-piece in its own house cloth, CYC Made to Measure $1,320 for a two-piece, Made Suits $1,599 for house Japanese wool, and Common Suits $1,799 in English or Italian cloth with GST already included. The jump you feel most is the fabric, not the label: Picadilly's own ladder goes $259 polyester, $659 wool-polyester blend, $859 wool-rayon, $989 pure wool, $1,459 premium branded wool, all from the same tailor and the same pattern.
Which is the cheapest tailor in Singapore, and is the cheapest option worth it?+
Picadilly Tailors at Far East Plaza publishes the lowest number, $259, and it is worth reading what that buys before you book. On its own product listing, $259 is the 100% polyester variant and it carries an 8 to 10 week standard delivery; the same product page then prices wool-polyester at $659 and pure wool at $989. Its shirts start at $89 in polyester and $159 in pure cotton, and the listing promises free alterations for up to six months from collection, which is a genuinely useful term at this price. Its tuxedo listing, which used to quote a lower "from" figure than its own fabric options, now says "from $359.00 onwards", matching the polyester tier, and the same six-month free-alteration promise now appears on the suit and tuxedo listings too. If you want the cheapest suit that is wool rather than plastic, the shortest route is We Are Suitable at $299 or Picadilly's $659 blend, and the cheapest branded-mill entry is Edit Suits Co. at $749.
What is the difference between made-to-measure and full bespoke in Singapore?+
Made-to-measure adapts an existing house pattern to your measurements; full bespoke cuts a pattern from scratch for you. Made Suits is the clearest example on this list because it sells and prices both. Its bespoke-to-measure line is built on the house signature cut, described on its own FAQ as about 60% handmade, takes 4 to 6 weeks and needs zero to one fitting, and starts at $1,599 for house Japanese wool. Its full bespoke takes 7 to 9 weeks with one to two fittings and starts at $3,399 in European mill cloth, rising to a band it publishes as $17,050 to $50,000. Meiko Tailor sits at the full-bespoke end too but publishes no figure at all, and works strictly by appointment at Pan Pacific Singapore and Boat Quay. One term to check everywhere: most quotes here are for half-canvas construction. Made Suits footnotes that its suit and jacket prices are half-canvas or unconstructed, Edit Suits Co.'s redesigned pricing page no longer states construction at all, and Common Suits charges S$300 more for full canvas.
How early should a groom order a wedding suit in Singapore?+
Three months before the wedding is comfortable, two is tight, and under six weeks limits your choices. The published lead times explain why. Made Suits quotes 4 to 6 weeks for bespoke-to-measure and 7 to 9 weeks for full bespoke, plus 2.5 to 3 weeks for shirts and 3 to 5 weeks for trousers. CYC Made to Measure quotes 6 to 8 weeks on suits and 3 to 4 weeks on shirts. Picadilly Tailors quotes 8 to 10 weeks as standard, with an express service on request through WhatsApp. On top of that, build in time for one alteration round after the first fitting, and remember that a groom usually needs the groomsmen measured in the same window, which is where We Are Suitable's group ladder ($289 a suit at three, $279 at five or more) and Edit Suits Co.'s 10% Essentials Groom Package start to matter. If the date is already too close, Ehkay Corner Tailor rents suits, tuxedos, blazers and tuxedo shirts in 72-hour blocks.
Do Singapore tailors quote prices with GST included?+
Not consistently, and only two tailors on this list say so plainly. Common Suits states on its own pricing page that its figures are inclusive of GST, so its S$1,799 English or Italian cloth suit is the price you pay, and Made Suits heads its whole price list "All Price inclusive of GST", which covers its $1,599 house Japanese wool entry. Nobody else here publishes a GST line beside the number, which means a $1,320 or $749 headline may still gain 9% at the counter. One other footnote is worth reading before you compare like with like: Edit Suits Co. adds $100 for the tuxedo option while Made Suits adds $150. Ask for the all-in figure in writing, including canvas construction and any extra trouser, before you leave a deposit.
Can you rent a suit in Singapore instead of having one made?+
Yes, and on this list Ehkay Corner Tailor is the one that does it. Its own site sets the rental period at a 72-hour (3-day) block starting from the date and time of collection, and the range covers two-piece suits, blazers and sports coats, tuxedos and tuxedo shirts. It does publish the rates, which is unusual: $140 for a two-piece suit (black or midnight blue), $90 for a blazer or sports coat, $215 for a shawl-lapel tuxedo, $245 for a peak-lapel one, $70 for a tuxedo shirt and $60 for a regular shirt, all bookable online and marked Singapore only. Those are the rates for sizes 34 to 46. In chest sizes 48, 50 and 53 every rental costs more: $170 for the two-piece, $115 for a blazer, $285 for either tuxedo, $95 for a tuxedo shirt and $80 for a regular shirt. The cheaper $120 two-piece tier we listed earlier in October is no longer offered. The shop is at #01-57 and #01-01 Orchard Plaza, 150 Orchard Road, open 11.30am to 8.30pm Monday to Saturday and 11.30am to 6.30pm on Sundays and public holidays. If you would rather own something, its custom two-piece starts at $380, with a solid three-piece at $680, a peak-lapel tuxedo at $760 and a designer three-piece at $820.
