For me when living here I did not get suits made as a 42L from Marks and Spencer fitted me well. But when it came to shirts for work, fashion changed so it was difficult to find shirts with top pockets which I wanted and I liked a slightly looser neck (in the days when we had to wear ties) which meant for off the shelf I would have to have a really baggy shirt and also the arm lengths did not quite fit and the cuff was a bit tight with my fitness watch. So buying "made to measure" gave me exactly what I wanted. It was not about cost it was about having something I felt really comfortable wearing and looked very smart. And no I would not have gone to Saville row to get them made there.

If you buy through a company you may then want to consider putting the building freehold in your name and keeping land (as you have to ) in the Thai company. This should stop you having to pay rent to the company and thus reduce tax expense.

Flew out in July and back this week. Masks advised but not required.
