Combine the sensibilities of the English and the global sophistication of Hong Kong, and it’s only natural that menswear mavens would expect the height of quality and individuality from their bespoke tailor. There is no place in the world like Hong Kong, after all. But Raja Daswani knows that Hong Kong is a doorway to the world, and in order to custom-fit the world with quality and style, he maintains an astounding stock of 20,000 fabrics and covers all the major cities in the UK, USA, France, Germany and Japan – as well as Hong Kong and the rest of the Chinese mainland. Raja’s father brought the family commitment from northern India to Hong Kong a generation ago. His uncles and aunts followed, so when Raja established himself, he brought the bloodlines as well as the business acumen. If one of Raja’s “Best Of” bespoke suits makes you feel like the world, it’s because of the boundless reservoir of sophistication that the man himself brought to the effort.

I bought two suits in 2005. They fit reasonably well, but I would have fared just as well off the peg at between a half and a third the price. They purport to be in competition with the bespoke brigade, but the finish is anything but. Over time I have found corners of the suits where final stitching leaves much to be desired, and the buttons have not been adequately sewn on..to the extent that even those I don't use (e.g. buttons to attach braces to trousers) come away of their own volition. The advertising is a little bit economical with the verite as well. The £169 suits are linen only (no wool in sight) and in colours that would make Max Miller blanche. The £325 one in medium weight British cloth turns out to be at least double that for a lightweight version in a presentable colour. There may be 20,000 swatches available in the hotel room where the fittings are made, but less than 20 of those would pass muster for anybody seeking a stylish suit.
I acknowledge I needn't have purchased at the price, but it was only when the first suit arrived I began to see the difference between the spin and the reality. I fully accept that "caveat emptor" applies in spades, but once bitten twicw shy. I won't be back.
Saville Row may cost more, but they're always close by, they pay attention to detail and they finish professionally...and they don't send their carefully crafted products by post in a jiffy bag reinforced by yards of sellotape, necessitating months of pressing before the suit sits half right. Their shirts are inferior quality for the price as well. You will do better and cheaper with T M Lewin or Thomas Pink.

Celebrities
There are a lot of things to envy about female celebrities: their flawless skin, their perfect
features, and their gorgeous boyfriends. One thing you don’t have to envy, however, is their
handbags. If you’ve seen a celebrity carrying around Chanel handbags and have lusted after one,
you should know that it’s entirely possible to own one! Imitation Chanel handbags are much less
expensive than ones that you would purchase in a store, yet they are made of the same material and
look exactly the same. So close to the original, in fact, that even a celebrity can’t tell them
apart!
Imitation Chanel handbags online, like the Chanel Classic Lambskin Flap in white is easily
affordable when you purchase Chanel handbags online. In fact, Mischa Barton owned one of these
handbags and was seen toting it around everywhere for a very long time. The signature quilted
leather and interlaced chain and leather straps make this a must for anyone who loves Chanel bags,
and the 10” drop handle makes it perfect to carry anywhere. If you’re looking for Chanel handbags
online and are fretting because you can’t afford them, check out imitation Chanel handbags and get
your wallet ready, because they’re easily affordable and beautiful as well!
